New CD player?
OK, I am about to buy a new cd player and is there anything I need to buy for it other than a wire harness? Is there some trim thing I need since Honda put that stupid curve in these cars on the CD Player?
I have 2001 Civic EX Coupe.

You will need a wiring harness (71-7121) and install kit (99-7897 or 98)

You can get these slightly cheaper on Ebay then most local stores but it just depends on if you care about saving $12 total or just getting the parts local. If you shop ebay, just put that part number in a search and it will return alot of them usually. Metra is the best install kit brand and is use by most install shops. Good luck

There are a few dash kits available, so it's just picking one you like. One of them even lets you keep the pocket underneath if you want. But otherwise, you just need the harness and dash kit.
