Removal of stock radio

I have a 2002 Civic Coupe and just got an mp3 player for it. I was wondering if anyone knows any good links, which show how to remove the stock radio. Thanks!

i saw the tutorial for that already. Isn't there anything else which is more in depth? This tutorial lacks some steps and the tutorial makes removing it so easy.

Ya, removing a radio is really straight forward. The hardest part is getting apart the console with out scratching it.

Hell I have done it so many times now I can do it with my eyes closed.

The best way to do it is to pop off the small pannel where the fog light switch and power outlet is, then take out the bolts and once they are out push up from the backside of the panel, just push on the bar that you took the bolts out of, you should be able to get the panel to push out enough to get your fingers under there and then just pull out. That way you should be able to get it out without scratching the molding, after that its all straight forward.


Good Luck

Can you tell me in detail how you moved it without scratching it and without touching the center console. I tried moving the damn center console but it won't budge and if I mess around harder with the flathead, I'm afraid I'm gonna damage it.
