now ive got the hondacodes.. but im not sure which are the corresponding wires for the sony deck... im gonna chuck an amp in as well... so i was wondering to which wire i should connect the romote wire to ?

Im not gonna worry about the speaker wires because im gonna install my 6.5"s and hook them up directly to the amp.. (im kinda noob at this so if i say somethin wrong correct me plz )

which leads me to my second question, has anyone got any pictures or guides or anything on how to hook 6.5" to EG civic hatch front doors? Looks like ill need to make some spacers, ne one give ne advice or ne thin with those.. =)?

Thanx !

I made spacers for the speakers in m EG doors......however I can't remember if the speakers were 6" or 6.5" I guess i could go take a picture if you really want :) Just use some MDF to make circular wooden spacers.

As for the wiring.......look at the manual for the deck as it will tell you which colour is which.

all headunits are the same. all the colors do the same thing, (- blue: remote - blue/white: antenna - red: AC - yellow: 12v - black:Gournd -) the rest are all ya speakers should be 8 wires left over, 2 for each of ya four speakers

if u gonna run amps u'll need to feed a power cable from the battery to power ya amp.
then plug ya rca's into the front rca outs, then plug the other end into a amp then spliz from amp
then same for rears, amp then subs.

Its actually blue-white for the remote :)

But yes.......most headunits will be the same.....especially Sony ones.

when you install your system dont do it in the dark, u wont be able to see the wire colors and ur tools will be hard to find. as i have done numerous car systems in the dark because i work in the day time and i tell u it aint tat fun. lol

hahah thx for the help guys..

i dunno wat u mean by blue-white .. does that mean blue with white stripe?

my deck has a blue and light blue... im pretty sure the blue is the remote and the light blue is ATT... which i was told pretty much only used for automatic ariels and mobile fone car kits..

correct me if im wrong =)?

thx for the tip z3lda.. im gonna be installing it the same time as i redo my carpet so yea.. hopefully be all good and day light :P
