Well, actually all I really need help with is getting the OEM cassette player out. I can figure out the wiring. I tried for a bit to to get it out, but I don't see any screws in the plastic trim piece which surrounds the OEM radio and climate control and runs over the steering column. I tried to pry on it with a flathead screwdriver but it did not come out easily so I stopped before I broke anything. So, how is it supposed to come out?

Also, how is the aftermarket unit to be secured down? Am I going to need to purchase an "installation kit" of some sort from best buy or whatever or can it just screw into factory mounts somewhere?

Thanks in advance for any help. I looked through the stickies but all the how-to's on removing dash pieces no longer had any pictures.

 

Go into the Accord FAQ

Go to the "Cluster Removal" You'll only need to follow the first bit, where you remove the armrest and black trim.

Stock one has two screws holding it in, if you buy a "fit kit" from like Best Buy it'll come with something similar.

 

crap, I just realized I posted this in the accord forum. I meant to put it in the civic forum. it's a 94 civic DX. but thanks for the help anyway. lol. guess I'll repost it in the civic forum
