okay so i cleaned off my battery terminals and found out the hard way that factory head units need a code to be reactivated, i took it to the dealer and they said we can get you the code for free but we have to remove the radio to find the numbers and that cost 80$, so i sat in the parking lot trying to get my radio out for like 30 min. before i decided to ask the experts, how do i get the stereo out of my 99 civic EX !?! more pictures the better !
drop the panel from under the driver side dash and then drop the glove and then unsrew all 6 screws that hols the peice under the raido console and above the cup holder and then look up and you will see 4 8mm bolts holding the radio in. take those out and then you have to unsnap the entire hvac, vent, hazard, stereo. bascilly everything in that center black peice all comes out together then you can read the number.
Also if your not to sure about your skills (girls like boyfriends who have great skills, computer hacking skills, numbchuck skills, bow hunting skills) take it to a local stereo shop and go to the back and offer an installer 20 bucks to get it out for you. If you are in Sacramento Ill do it for 20.
