FD stereo Thread

[lyd]

yea, i got the box too..hehehe
told u...kicker edition.lolz
i wuld tidy up the cables if i knew how to open up the rear seat so i can fit it under it...any1?

Yes, its quoite easy to remove the seat. look where the seat belts came from joint between the seat and back rest, there is a 10 mil screw which u need to take it out first in able to release the two clip under the seat. then it will be able to remove the seat easily. for the front engine, yes u can tidy up by putting all the cables into crimp tube...i did mine last weekend and run all the cables under the carpet..not an easy task, but looks more neat...

hey guys...

i'm upgrading the audio on my new fd and was just wondering if anyone had the wiring diagram for the wires that come out of the stock head unit and what they do?

i'm connecting a rockford fosgate 3sixty.1 and need to know which wires are for the speakers?

thanks heaps!

Did anybody get the optional "Bass works sound system"?

From the honda website -

This audio performance pack includes two special low-frequency rear speakers, which guarantee high-quality sound in the lowest and low-mid frequency range. Applicable for all Civic variants.

Does this mean it replaces the standard rear speakers?

and what is the control unit below?
where does it go?

i enquired about it...

yes - it replaces rear speakers... the amplifier thing gets mounted under the parcel shelf...

imo for $500 its not worth it... you're better off getting something after-market... dealer didnt think that much of them either

[Brescia]

$500

there goes that idea,
thanks for the info

[LD_Mart]

i got it for free when i had my FD. It was ok but so not worth it.

Yep i got the bass works speakers as well. Definitly can do better wth aftermarket parts... but since i got it for free... i think it sounds good. But definitly do aftermarket.

sorry for late reply, my HDD folders are mess up

HARNESS 1 - mainly for audio system (you might need this much)



HARNESS 2 (VTI-L and sport only) -mainly for steering control audio button & AUX



please see how the harness facing and point the number carefully
Wire's color may vary.

for everyone with splits, where did you mount the tweeters?

i'm trying to figure out where i want to mount them... the spot near the windscreen where the oem ones would go if i had them doesnt look like the best place to put it so i'm wondering what everyone else did...
