Help on upgrading stereo on Civic 2003 Sedan. Hello Civic users/experts,
I have stock stereo in my civic 2003,
Could you please advise me how much following would make sense and which would be better option for me?
1. I would love if I get only Aux installed -so that I dont have to replace stock stereo (any price ideas?)
2. If Aux not possible, I would go for Stereo system upgrade, which would give me Aux,CD, SD card/USB..(may be below $100 deal).
I know crutchfield gives me nice options but it keeps on telling me I need extra things to buy with stereo like a new case/bracket and harness.
I really appreciate your opinion on these.
It will tell me if 1 or 2 is cheaper way and I can have nice music from my phone/music player.
Thank you!

If you want to keep your stock radio and have an Aux input then check out PAC audio.
If you want a new head unit then yes you will need an adapter bracket and harness. Crutchfield won't give you anything you don't need. $100 is a low budget might need to go a tad higher for the harness and DIN adapter.
