I need to install a deck and i was wondering if you need a mounting kit to install one on a 96 integra coupe. I heard from some people that the mounting kits dont fit very well and they look kind of ugly, so is there a way to do it without?

I want to know how other integra owners installed their decks

Thanks!

 

Hasnt anybody replaced their stock head unit in their integra?

Please help me out... I'm sure atleast 50% of the integra owners here have a system in their car

 

you can use a mounting kit.. or do the OEM style install

mounting kit is pretty decent... it sits nicely and doesn't look too bad. the OEM style install may take a bit more work though..... follow the article.

PS. get a wire harness too if you don't want to cut your factory connector.

 

get the mounting kit from future shop those fit pretty damn good. and i strongly suggest you buy the wiring harness it's dummy proof

 

^ Do you have the mounting kit from future shop? Could you take a picture of your dash so i could see what it looks like?

Thanks

 

It looks the same as stock except the pocket is a bit smaller... If you do the OEM style install, the deck sits more in with the dash and doesn't stick out as much as using the mount kit.

 

yeah i heard it was ugly because the deck pops out too much or something..... what do you think? Should i just buy the kit, or try the OEM install?

And is there only 1 type of kit for the integra at Future Shop or do they have a couple different ones?

 

all the kits are the same...

the oem style install is a bit more challenging though.. but worth it in the end.

 

get the mounting piece and the harness dont cut no wiress...

 

So nobody has pictures of the inside of their car so i could see what it looks like?

I guess i'll just buy the mounting kit... sounds like the easier way out

 

Did you get your deck installed yet? I have a picture of my deck installed with a mounting kit if want to see.

I also have a brand new mounting kit for sale... never used, $25

 

what kind of mounting kit?

i'm looking for a kit with 1 DIN on top and 1/2 din below.

anyone know where I can find a kit like that? crutchfield does not ship to canada.

 

Sorry, it's a full DIN at the bottom... what are you mounting? An EQ or something?

 

Nah, i havent installed it yet. Could you post the picture? If you cant PM me

Also is the mounting kit for sale the same one you have installed? Is it an integra mounting kit or are they universal or something? Post a picture of the kit too, I'll probably buy it

Thanks man

 

Here's the only picture I could find of a deck installed with a mounting kit in my car... I didn't realize how blurry it was and I'm too lazy to go take more pics.



Basically, it looks close enough to stock... the only difference being that the pocket is a little smaller width-wise.

The kit I have is brand new, I opened it up but never used it

 

yes, i'm mounting an EQ there. mainly for lack of a better place to mount it.

 

Heishin I want to buy that mounting kit off you... how much do they cost normally in the store?

email me at illphilxxx@hotmail.com with your info, and i'll pick it up
