Default factory radio retrofit

Anyone know of a workable retrofit that would allow me to install a 1994 Honda Accord 4dr EX radio and CD player in my 1993 Accord 4dr EX? I have confirmed that the dimensions work, if I take out the box that is under the existing radio, and also the wiring is identical. The problem is the way the unit is bolted in in a 94 differs from a 93. Thanks for any ideas.

i believe they sell a mounting kit too, like 8.99 for single deck, little bit more for double sandwich type.
get those better one, the cheapo one that i got for my beater sucks..

I might just turn the job over to a pro installer. The thing that has me worried is the honda radio-cd combo for the 94 model screws in differently than the 93. I guess a pro-intaller will tell me real quick if I have purchased a radio that can't be put in my car. Can you confirm that the mounting kit would allow me to make a 94 factory radio-cd fit securely in my 93? I am guessing that mounting bracket would allow me to put screws in places other than those honda designated. iam7head, thanks again for you comments and getting me on the right track.
