Remove them & pull the stereo complete with the bracket out of the car, swap the head units over. You may be able to get an adapter loom from dse or repco to save knowing what you're doing as far as the wiring goes. You just connect one end in to the plug you removed from the back of the old head unit & plug the other end in your new stereo & put the car back together, done.. Don't worry about all the vin stuff. It doesn't apply to you	Phil B (648)

If op is still around I would really appreciate the info! Oh and Phil B. I tried to pry out the facia but I'm afraid it's going to break before it comes out. It really feels like it's bolted down somewhere. Are you sure it just pops out? Thanks!	jackie113 (14705)

Use a wide blade tool, such as a strong paint scraper & lever the facia towards you. If you do it gently to start with, you can see where the clips are holding it. They are the clips from hell, they hang with no movement & no feel, then bang, it's undone. I think there's 6 or 8 clips. 2 at the bottom, 2 in the middle, 2 at the top on the side & maybe 2 along the top horizontal part of the facia. If you remove the glovebox & the inner bit of trim, you can stick your head in far enough to see the clips & the bracket the houses the stereo. Honda's have horrible no feel plastic too, so be careful	Phil B (648)
