will the center dash section, where the radio is, from a 99-00 civic fit in a 97 civic. i like the ***** better than the little levers. thanks for your help.

oh yea, i searched a lot and couldn't find anything on that could tell me this.
anything i post i get told this because i'm a "newbie"

 

It would fit. All you need from the 99-00 is that part, not sure if the wiring the same. I think it's just plug and play. So try it and let me know if it work!
