I have this same setup I bought off someone here on Honda Tech.. Very Nice I love it ..

This is not mine Found it when checking Ebay tought I would share

 

How does the CD part mount? Do you have to cut the plastic part with the little storage slot that surrounds the radio?

 

glad to see you are happy with the CD player

 

Damn that's oldschool. How much did CDs cost back then?

Probaly.. I have a pocket in mine but I was lucky enough to have a console that came with a factory honda EQ so i never had that little built in cubby.

99 Si Cd player wired with OEM Plug + Accord Pocket

 

ibet that skips like nobodys buisness. a cd player from 89 damn

 

I like that idea even better than the original option CD player. Were there any issues aside from matching up the wires in the harness? (I'd probably just wire up an adapter to avoid cutting the car's wiring harness.)

Where did you get the part that plugs into the later style Honda radios?

When I picked up my CRX the previous owner cut the harness off or someone did. So I Just purchased a ( reverse OEM Harness ) that had the 99 style OEM plug with bare wires on the other end and then just found the schematics and wired it up accordingly works 100% Perfect. If you like I can post where I got the schematic and purchased the harness. I am at work right now so I dont have it available to me.. The illumination comliments my Type R Cluster as well

Let's just say they costed alot. I remember back in 1991, a bottom-feeder Sony or Kenwood AM/FM/CD player costed around $300 (about the price of a good mid-high range deck today). And those models were pre-amp only - no ability to power speakers. I would not want to think about how much a factory Honda CD player would have costed a couple of years earlier. By the way, CDs themselves costed around $18 each - quite a bit more than they do now. And the recording industry was probably making a killing since the technology to copy CDs (not to mention file-sharing) would not be available to consumers for a few more years.

Oh, and forget about playing MP3 CDs on this deck! Back in those days, people used something called a 'CD changer' if they wanted to hear alot of music on the road. Oops, I don't know if they even had CD changers back in 1989.

 

I would have to say that outdated POS is a waste of money.

 

but the double din radio console is NOT. i want one of those...

anyone got?

 

thats badass. i'd love to have that in my ride. how often are those available?

i think ur missing somthing critical to drive it IE the shifter

 

LOL hahaah yeah i know this was when I was putting the motor in hahaah

 

I love OEM Honda parts just as much as the next guy... but damn.. CD tech was young when that **** came out, i bet it functions like **** and skips all over the place over bumps??....

 

I think I paid around $17 or $18 for my first CD back then. and the used to come in these huge boxes that were 2 to 3 times taller than the CD itself.

No. He IS talking CDs. Back in the day, CDs used to come in a box that was MUCH longer than the CD case itself in an attempt to deter theft.

i didnt know that cool

 

He's right. CDs came in tall cardboard boxes for quite a while. It was so stores could put CDs into old record racks.

 

ive got that same exact setup in my garage right now... if someone does get one and needs wiring help, i can hook you up. my car came stock with the cd/tape player in the double din console. one of the reasons i bought the car was becuase of all the rare parts like that it had.
