wow i was able to put in the head unit yesterday. im a little upset, the instal kit color was off and the fitmnt is a little off. the little cut out for the airbag light is a little to big. its enough to drive me nuts.perfection is my enemy. i did a test run on the wires and i know were i will run them. i still need to figure out how to run my power wire for the amp. i ran my GPS antenna under the weather stripping in the hatch. one day when i get time i will tk pics and post them. i still need to build the glassed box and amp rack

 

Just order the oem piece from honda u won't have a mismatch in color and everything will be perfect fitment. There is a thread on here that a guy put together the list of parts u need to order that is oem to get a double din to fit.

 

I've got a new OEM Nav piece for the 09 that I ordered from Bernardi and never took out of the wrap if you want to go with KoolKevin's suggestion. It's just sitting in my office. It was $36 and some change plus shipping. I'll let it go for $20 plus ship if you're interested. I was planning to throw it in the classifieds with a couple of other things but if you need it PM me.

 

its almost too late for that its in! well i can allways go back and take it out and put the oe in.......im sure cruthfeild will understand. well i would need to use the metal chage that came with the head unit? right?. the kit that gave me came with plates that fit into the souround than the head unit screwed into that, plus i dont have the trim ring that goes w the head unit

 

What kit did you get the Scosche or Metra?

 

metra, why?

 

Because you had complaints about the match, and fitment. I was curious as I just ordered a metra and wanted to know which one made you unhappy. I'll post back in here once mine comes in about my match and fitment.
