Introduction:
This is an autotoys.com installation. One of several hundred by the staff of autotoys.com
This article is a sample of knowledge gained by working on real cars for over 18 years.
Online for over 10 years, when you buy a product from us, we give you real support when you need it.
Instant access to answers through our customer forums. With thousands of customers, avoid delays, errors and miscalculations in your installation.. buy from autotoys.com - your outlet for car audio, car alarms and auto accessories.

Products:
If you have an interest in any of the products in this article, everything featured (electrical tape, connectors, radio, alarm, wire ties, rca cables, diodes, screws --- everything is available 'now' (FOR SALE!) through our storefront). Remember, there may be many manufacturers out there who sell similar products as the ones featured in our articles, but if you want a problem-free smooth professional install, your only guarantee is to buy the same parts we use (see our storefront). Any slight difference in any of the parts and your install is ruined (plus you won't have access to our post sale support or forums). Especially important for alarm, radio and OEM changer products.

Sales People (be careful!)::
Everyday, we get dozens of requests through our chat & ticket support system, request for forum passwords, questions on installation problems or questions. We can only focus on questions from our customers. The questions are simple.. the answers are simple - but these people, because they did not buy from AUTOTOYS.COM cannot get an answer. Dont make a mistake by buying through auctions, fly by night operations or new pop up websites who are just a voice over the phone (a sales person) with absolutely NO EXPERIENCE.

No experience installing in cars, no experience what-so-ever! They barely know the products they sell! Don't make that mistake! Make sure your purchase is from autotoys.com. These articles are proof we know what we are doing and that we WORK IN CARS! We work on the newest cars with the newest products.

This is the sleeve inserted into the DIN size opening. All you need to do is plug in your changer cable (if applicable), antenna and the main harness

This is the flip down faceplate of the radio.

Title naming is a feature, next we will run the wires for the CD changer. In this civic, the door sills are a little tough to run wires. The door sills are stapled on the inside part, you need to lift the door sill up and over so you can run your wires

How to run the changer wires, kinda tough in this car.

SEE PHOTO

D-bass processing is a feature of this radio.

More on running the changer cable in this car. See photo

Another area where it is tricky, just pull slightly on the rear corner trim and run your changer wires through. Be careful, don't do this when it is cold outside or your panels will crack!

More on running changer cable, very tricky here. See photo
