Well I finally got around to installing an older Alpine head unit I had laying around in my 05 Civic. Thanks again for this thread. I read thru it and went to work. Was very simple and took no time at all. I took some pics to help others who might be scared wondering "what's behind that" You can also get an idea for the speed clips that hold the entire thing in. You can see where they all snap in. I had one fly away when coming out so keep an eye out for that. I found it crimped it back on and was fine.

The only issue I found was trying to push the unit out from the back under neath. I just could not get leverage to give it a push. So I have an interior clip removal tool and pushing from the back and gingerly prying with the tool around the edges it came right out. Once a few clips pop off it comes right out.

So here is the head unit out and you can see what I took apart from the center console to get here. All your jacks unplug with ease.




And all done! (also detailed the car ) Sounds much better then the factory head unit that's for sure even with stock speakers. The storge bin under the radio makes for a great spot for the Scan Gauge. I drilled a hole in the top rear of the pocket too sneak the Scan Gauge and AUX wires out. The Scan Gauge fits perfectly with just the soft part of the velcro on the top and bottom. This way I can take the face plate off and take the Scan Gauge out (I have a spare cord for other cars) when I leave the car each time. Thanks again for the DIY it did help!
