my deck & other thing keeps poping out everytime i hit WOT in my car, ive never had this problem in any of my integras before.. i have no clue how to fix this and still make it look clean.. any products or tips or inventions / DIY taht can make the deck stay put ..

 

on my DA i have 4 zip ties and have it go through the plastic part of the deck and tie it around something strong in the back

hMm hows hta tlook? u secured the zpi ties to the Silver thing that goes around the DECK ?

btw i have a JVC..

 

use a back strap-connects the back of the deck to the frame of the car behind the deck, also makes the deck harder to rip out when someone tries to jack you

any link pic or info on this? i know u do that in san diego car audio and tint, but wondering how much is that thing u are talkiin about.. my next method was thinki of just drillin some holes on the inside and bolts and screws.. but that would be PITA to take out and put back in..

 

go to any stereo shop and tell them you looking for a bracket for a back strap. you screw one side to the back of the deck and then you a self tapping screw on the other end to hold it to the frame.

 

More info needed....

If its an oem deck, then the bolt holding the deck in place in the rear is missing or has fallen out

If its an aftermarket, then follow this procedure:
1. Carefully pull deck out (wiggle a bit and it should pop out)
2. Remove deck from the box housing it is clipped into
3. put the metal housing back into the deck slot in your dash
4. bend the triangular tabs outward from the center of the housing so that the housing is securely in place
5. Put head unit back in

the other fixes above, while not necessary, you should consider doing anyways. just makes the thing more secure and harder to steal.

from the research I've done, there aren't any good brackets for the integra available. A good one would replace that metal housing with a longer one with a bolt hole on the bottom so that the head unit could be bolted down like the oem radio. Frankly, it amazes me that no one makes a good kit, as out cars are broken into much more frequently than others out there. I plan on custom fabbing a bracket for myself, but you can get away with my procedure listed above.

EDIT: saw you have a jvc... disreguard the oem mention.

 

mine is taped the the center shorud
never comes out its rock solid

 

vtak is too strong

 

damn your car is strong....that happened to me too on all the cars that i had or known almost. Simple taping will fix it. haha, j/k if you find a way tell me.

I took a couple washers and shoved them between the deck and the plastic connectors on the side, stays put now .

 

the metal bracket that the deck sits in has tabs that you should be able to bend outwards. this keeps the bracket locked in place and the deck locks into the bracket.

 

glad i could help man...

I've seen some people get those little aluminum strips with a bunch of holes in them (i think they're used in plumbing - anyone know what i'm talking about?) and strap it too the back of the headunit and back to the bolt that holds the stock radio.

the strips im talking about are about 1.5 cm wide... any length, and the holes are about 1cm thick. you can pick them up at home depot.
