Does what it's supposed to in the end
on June 18, 2011
Posted by: Wagonman
from Baltimore,MD
I bought this kit fot a 1998 Civic EX 2 door. While it worked in the end, I had to grind some of the factory plastic bezel inside the radio area to get the tabs used to lock the aftermarket radio carrier to the kit to clear enough to make the face plate fit flush. You can't see the area ground away with the stereo installed. I used the L-bracket supplied to hold the stereo in place by bolting it to the dash frame. That lined up with a factory hole in the structure. In the end, it looks okay, but was disappointed to have to grind the original bezel when all they had to do was shift the radio opening to the right a little bit.
I agree that it it ridiculous to include pieces for 2 different body style cars in the kit.
What's great about it: Fairly easy to install
What's not so great: Had to figure out why the face plate wouldn't fit flush and grind the factory bezel.
I would recommend this to a friend!
