car stereo installation

first off sorry if this is a repeat. but i searched the archives and found nothing.. just got a deck for my car and want to order a installation kit online. i dont want to lose the little storage slot for cd's or whatever..this SCOSCHE one is the only one i could find online LINK... and it got a bad review, so i figured theres gotta be something better out there.
i was wondering if there were any other kits and websites i can order from.\
thanks LINK

You're in luck. Metra makes a trim ring kit for the new civic. It allows you to keep the factory pocket, and then you just put in a small trim ring around the deck you install. Go to www.metraonline.com and you can find it there.

Yes Metra does make one for our cars, actually they make two. One is just for the top area and the other replaces the pocket and all. I got both of them because the first one I got, Just the top, didnt seem to fit well with my Kenwood MP3 HU and then I emailed them and told them about it and they sent me the full thing for free, I am yet to put it in, but as far as I know it will work. If you want I can send you the Part Numbers of them.

Actually I do have the number for the top one ----- #99-7897

Metra currently makes 1 kit but they are in development of another..... with a 1/2 din pocket(from what i've heard) I use the Metra kit as well.. I Used the scoche and it warped in the sun..wasn't a good fit..

Cheers
