Im new at this, how do i take the stock indash receiver out of my 96 Honda EX? can someone help me out???

 

you ll need a radio kit , wiring harness , and disassembly

1* metra kit # 99-7891 or scosche #HA1570B ( these are companies who make radio kits ) __ pic below__
2* wiring harness metra harness # 70-1720 __ pic below__

installation

1* you need to take the radio out - remove screws that are holding the driver bottom panel , also take the small coin holder out that's on the driver side there is a screw there
2* remove screws under the glove box , and then open glove box remove side tabs that prevent the glove box from falling when open , remove screws around and behind glove box
3* remove two screws that are under the center bezel the piece that's right below the radio that has the cigarette lighter attached to it ((( be careful when pulling of this piece because it sticks on each side )))
4* once you have removed 3 panels , look under the radio there should be either 2 8mm bolts or 2 Phillip screws behind the radio take them out and the radio will slip out

install wires to radio and install kit

DO you have a stock key less entry ? if you do there's going to be more wiring done

Just take your time, its so easy to rip that thing off, and don't forget the 2 screws honda cleverly hid beneath the hazard and rear defrost buttons, you have to pop them out, carefully, and remove the two to pull the entire bezel off. It won't pull too far because of the climate control cable that runs the heater.

I would say taking it to a professional, like best buy or etc, would be the BEST 30-50 bucks you could spend in your life. It's a mess back there, let someone else screw it up and then you can cuss at them for cracking your bezel instead of cussing at yourself, its kind of redundant :-)

 

i was gonna do the same thing. but I just gave up, I'll probably just get an iPod connecter..cause that way I could play some more music, instead of using CD.
