The old deck should just pull out, but you may need keys to stick in or something. Also if your new deck is made by a different company, you need a new wire harness.

Each deck comes with it's own harness that plugs into the back of the unit. You need a new harness that connects that plug to the car harness. They're different for each brand.

i have a question; what wiring modifications will i need to do if i get a nakamichi head unit, and i have stock right now? Is it something that i can do pretty easily, or do i need to have it installed?
