Default SI head Unit!!!!NEED HELP

Well i have aa 2000 Honda Civic Ex. I was installing the Si Stock head unit into my car but my antenna cord is short by 2 inches to reach the head unit. What do i do? Is there an adaptor that i can use to make the cord longer? Anyone know where to get it or what it is called? Any help would be helpful thank!

follow the antenna cord with your hand, back into the dash, at some point within the first 12" to 18" the antenna cord will be pop pinned to a metal bracket, just cut the pop pin/zip tie/fastener thing, an you'll have a few extra inches

yep, most cars have something like it, just keeps slack from making noise I think. anyway, your antenna goes down and toward the driver side, be sure not to cut the antenna when you do this!

I have an SI player in my DX... it should be long enough.

If not, just follow the cord back into the dash... all the cords are held in heat shrink, just cut the heat shrink and youll have TONS of wire to work with
