You will have to remove whole cd player console to remove that pocket under cd player. which is held by screws.

can you keep the pocket with a aftermarket headunit? or do you need to get one replaced with one of those "kits"

like civicvtec1ps said, you have to remove the entire center console. with the 03's you have to start way down by the shifter and remove all of the trim that holds in the base of the dash to the center console. that will expose the 2 screws holding the center dash console in place. the rest is just friction clips.

and yes, there are kits that will allow you to keep the factory pocket with aftermarket radio. metra part # 99-7899.

Sorry Skip, but it's 99-7897.

thats right, the 7899 is the one that WONT let you use factory pocket.

yea i went to do it today, but i realize there is 4 screw holding the piece, instead of 4 clips. so i guess i need to take the whole center off in order to do wt i need to do. i just want to remove the pocket under the headunit, so i can put something else in that slot , like a switch panel or etc. cus the 2 whole next to the lighter plug, i dunno wt switch to use to fit them and also how to wire them
