03 accord deck prob
 

does anyone know the specs on the stock stereo sys that comes with the
car..

do u think it has rca preouts or anything like that..and where can i
find instructions on taking out the radio..

my friends owns one..and wants to upgrade the sound sys..
an amp and a small sub should do the trick for now...but i don't know
whats behind the deck. its a 2003 accord where the deck and a/c
controls are all built in one...it does not have the nav sys.

I have the same one. You can't remove the deck to upgrade. You have to
get an adapter kit for the CD storage bin below the stock stereo and
put the new deck there. (that's what I had to do)

Dipso,

You can add an amp and sub to any car stereo by tapping in a 'line level
converter' box to the speaker outputs (it converts speaker level down to
'line' level), which then goes to your new amp / sub.

Re: 03 accord deck prob
 

I'm intrested in adding a stereo to the CD bin too. I have questions:

1. Do still have room to close the bin cover, or did you have to remove it
altogether?

2. What did you have to disassemble in order to complete this, (shifter
console, other hidden brackets, etc.)?

3. Did you have a set of instructions to complete this work?

4. Does your stock stereo still work as normal after installing your new
deck?

5. What source of wires did you use to connect the red, yellow, orange, etc.
from the aftermarket stereo? Was an aftermarket wire harness helpful?

6. What problems did you encounter?

Thanks.
