they are all the same. all you need to do is get the wire harness and trim kit that works with your specific car. go to best buy or some place like that and ask for a wire harness and trim kit for your year/make/model car. should be no more than 20-25 dollars.

Re: ex cd player in lx

If everything is original...? It should be 100% plug and pray. Both units are single DIN and the wiring is the same. Unless you are talking SE double DIN.

Don't forget to get the code from seller.

Agreed (except you may have meant play.)

Only likely issue is if hers is a coupe and the other was a sedan, nothing that can't be dealt with though.

No No, "Plug and Pray" like Microsoft.

I imagine the cassette and the CD units are the same size (single DIN) It should work fine IMO.

Cool, that's why I said may, I wasn't sure.

Sedan doesn't have turn on wire for antenna amplifier, the coupe does. Just check the AM/FM reception once you're done.

Tap accessory power (yellow/red) over to the antenna turn on wire (yellow/green).

Re: ex cd player in lx

Out of curiosity, why did the coupe have the amplifier and the sedan didn't?

Looks like the coupe uses two separate antennas in the rear glass.

Hmm. That may be so, but, still, why would they deem it necessary to not put it into a sedan? Did they think that two extra door handles would boost reception?

Haha, I think you're gonna have to talk to someone at Honda for any further explanation.
