removing head unit

[jimidy]

any one no anything about removing standerd head deck from a ek1 i got myself a dvd player and want to change it over just having abit of diffculty getting the oem head unit out any tricks i should no about

[Frankie]

when removing the plastics remember to be gentle and always look for screw's underneath the plastic

im not sure if ek has screw on the stock dvd; but u gotta insert two thin metal piece on the both side of the head unit; and it will unlock the headunit on its position. U can find the thin metal piece from any aftermarket headunit (comes with it).

No. Immobilisers head unit is USDM. Not for Australian delivered EK1's. That passcode it asks you for after disconnecting power is just anti theft system for the headunit, all it does is reactivates the HU.

The civic is a bitch to get to but it can be done. I did it a a few months back and followed this guide: http://installdr.com/InstallDocs/Honda/PDF/466013.pdf

In terms of the immboilisers and central locking/OEM alarm..nothing will be affected in anyway (unlike USDM model EK's).

Good luck with it
