will an 02 and up hu work in an 00? Will the harness plug in with out any problems?

Thanks James

 

anyone

 

Yes it will work but it will still be a POS. Hopefully you got it free otherwise why bother.

 

.....they are pretty much identical radios. The stock HU does suck, though....it is only like 7WRMS, where a typical aftermarket HU is between 17-22WRMS.

Yes it will work, and provide a good bit more power than the 00-01 OEM radio did.

As was mentioned, most any after market radio will have more power than even the 02-03 radio does. You can add the PAC SWI or the Modifry DCI to retain the dash controls.

My 01 came with a free OEM changer and there was not a good and inexpensive SWI back then, so I got a used 02 radio and some Polk EX speakers to upgrade the sound in the car. Both make for a large improvement over the stock 01 system.

thanks for the help. I want to keep the stock radio because of the dash controls. Someone broke in to my car and messed up the radio so I need a new one. I didn't want to buy any extra parts to make it work with the dash controls, and I'm not in to getting an expensive system, I had them in my last to cars and did not think they were worth the trouble. I thought I would be able to get a stock radio cheap. thanks again.

Sorry they messed up your radio - that seems to be the "normal" thing to do: "if you can't steal it, trash it".

You should be able to pick up a used OEM stereo here or fleabay for cheap. I think the same stereo is used in some other Honda models - but I can't remember which ones now

Be sure you get the radio code with the radio.
