And no, not with Jesus or a girlfriend.
As you can tell it’s not in all the way, because I have to remove the stupid black trim around the console. But anyways.
Only one speaker works. I wired up three, but I only got a continuity reading from one. Based on the wiring diagram I found on line it was suppose to be the front driver side speaker, but it’s actually the passenger’s, oh well.
The wiring’s more fucked than I originally thought. The radio fuse was blown so I swapped it with one of the rear power windows. There was another problem I had to fix with the wiring, but I don’t even remember what it was.
Update: So I removed the trim piece to fully insert the radio and I decided before putting it back together I’d test it again and..... The speaker’s not getting power anymore. Did I mention I fucking hate this car?
It’s getting dark so I’m done for the day. I’ll double check my wiring for the speakers tomorrow. I thought I did a better job on those than the one’s for the power and such, but maybe not. If I check tomorrow and I have continuity across my crimps than I guess it’s the speakers. If not I’ll have to redo the connections. If so I’m using blade connectors. I had to redo the switch power and I used blade connectors and they’re sooooo much easier. Idk why people even recommend butt connectors.
Anyway. I had it working at one point so I think I earned my daily beer ration.

I looked at this for a solid 30 seconds and then burst out laughing. Made my night

Seeing that image of the dash without the stereo in it looks so JDM.
Literally, because, apparently, many cars sold there come from the factory without a radio in the dash.
They usually end up looking either like this...
(Daihatsu Cast Style X)
...or like this...
(Suzuki Alto Works)
Buyers end up either getting one installed by the dealer or by a store that specializes in automotive parts and service (Autobacs, Yellow Hat, etc.).
Honda even has their own brand they offer (which can also be found at such third party retailers), called Gathers, manufactured by Pioneer, who Honda owns about 4% of.

The heck you can fit that radio there, without destroying your dashboard... but if you’re happy with that, who am I to criticize?

When I had my 1993 Civic it had an aftermarket radio, but also found the antenna and radio hole blanking plates in the trunk from the original owner.
