I've been out of the Honda scene for about 8 years now (had a 90 CRX back then). I've aquired the wife's old 05 Accord with the 2.4L engine (4 door).
I'm not new to modding and such, but I have a quick question about shaving the emblems.

I'm assuming the the "Accord" emblem is just stuck on with some sort of 3M double sided foam tape, as well as the "EX". Is the rear "H" just stuck on as well, or is there holes behind it?

Also, the side molding that runs down the middle of the car on the doors, is there holes behind it, or is it just stuck on as well?

Another thing, what are my options as far as aftermarket radios? Is there a kit to fit the crazy shaped stocked radio?

Sorry for the noob questions. Look forward to reading through the threads and learning.

Thanks.

 

The "H" emblem on the back, does have 2 holes behind it. The small accord and ex emblems should just be the "stick-on" type.

I'm not sure if you can get an aftermarket radio installed on these. The radio is built into the panel with the climate control. I don't think I've seen an aftermarket radio in one to be honest. Other members on here might have some more insight though.

 

From what I've read, you would be better off just adding a stereo under the factory unit. Like said above, you can't just remove the stock radio, because the A/C controls are included with the unit. The only conversion I've seen that eliminates the stock system looks very cheap, and probably works as good as it looks. Search the Accord forums, and you will see what I mean.

 

Even the "nice" aftermarket kits for these are cheap looking compared with the OE unit. The side moldings do have holes behind them.

 

there is a kit that i have seen and it flips the ac controls from the below the radio to ontop of it. im thinking of doing this as well.however, i am putting in a touch screen. when it comes to the speakers,the stock ones are pretty nice so unless you want alot of bass then i would not recommend swapping them out.
