I love how easy it is to install headunits in these 6th gen Accords. Ive done installs for family in other types of cars and SUVs, such a pain in the ass with some of them
51 and I was born into street racing (60's muscle cars). One thing my dad told me was, "hot rods/race cars are bottomless money pits".😅 They're definitely fun but 99% of the time you'll never get back what you put in them.
@@ibbryant17 I finally got the door speakers in today. I had to cut the back off the factory insert. If I had gotten the rings they would have dropped right in but I went on the information from eBay. Thanks for uploading the video. 8)
Hey I know this video is old but all the diagrams I’ve found online I don’t have certain color wires what wires did you use for your front speakers what color is positive and negative? For both front speakers ??
I hope you got it figured out. Tbh it's been so long I can't remember and I sadly don't own this car anymore so I can't just pop the radio out to tell you
My car didn't have steering wheel controls but you can definitely get them to work if you do. There's additional interface boxes you can get. And no I didn't have to bypass anything
I'd like to do this with my stereo. Unfortunately, I too live in Arizona, and I have a fear of getting my stereo stolen. happened to my brother one time
I've had a radio stolen before. It's not really common anymore because radios are cheap. Someone tried stealing the one I installed in this video but couldn't get it
Know just what you mean and it sucks big time. There was a dealer/shop that specialized in Hondas and I had put down to buy one and a week later when I went to pick it up, someone broke into all the cars on the lot and stole the stereos, but the worse part they totally destroyed the dashboards/consoles to get them out 😢
Hey sorry for the late response I'm just seeing this now. You'll have to look at the wiring behind your radio I no longer have my accord so I can't check myself
Hey bro nice video ! i was wondering if I buy this specific header, I also want to have a back up camera. I have to buy the camera and wife different correct & hook it to the stereo right ? & does the Bluetooth diminish the speaker of the car if I connect my books to it? Please hit me back up
Hey I'm sorry I didn't see this till now. You do have to buy the camera separately and the audio quality is the same with Bluetooth it doesn't diminish it at all
Hi I just got my 2000 Honda Accord V6 Last week and went into Best Buy and they have a free installation for if you spend $200 or more on a radio so they suggested the JVC 6.8 Bluetooth digital media receiver black sku: 6401891 the metra dash kit for select 1990-2006 Honda Civic CR-V accord Odyssey TL Integra CL Prelude DDIN sku: 5325608 and the metra radio harness for select 1996-2013 Honda Acura Suzuki sku: 347146 my total would come out to be $248?15 what are your thoughts?
@@ibbryant17hey I'm having problems starting my engine with the key in the ignition. I made a mistake and did an oil change with the 10w 30 oil synthetic oil instead of regular because my dad told me it would last longer since I drive 5-6 hours a day doing Uber Eats. My check engine light is on and sometimes I got to charge up the alternator by pressuring the gas and holding the key in the ignition. Any suggestions?
@tiffanyacosta9716 the synthetic oil is fine I used it in my accord. Make sure your maintenance is up. Spark plugs being bad can cause a rough start and if your cap and rotor are worn on your distributor. Small things like that. Or even if your battery is old and worn. Before assuming the worst make sure simple stuff like that is okay first
@@ibbryant17 on Monday my car wouldn't turn on even with the booster so we called aaa to tow it to the mechanic and when the aaa guy unloaded the car we put the key in the engine turned on we were all surprised. The first mechanic said I need to buy the main relay which he was tryna charge me $100 we thought that was expensive, I went to a second mechanic he said it's the catalyst system efficiency below threshold and I asked him how much that would cost to replace he said thousands of dollars so I went to the original mechanic who sold me the car he just reset something and my check engine went off and gave me cataclean liquid to put with the gas change. I use regular gas. The battery and engine is brand new according to my mechanic he changed it July 7th. Is it safe for me to drive tomorrow for 30 miles?
Since making this vid I've had to change the links multiple times because sellers change the item so the link no longer works or takes you to a listing for the wrong part. The stuff I used is all over eBay and it's easy to find tho
Bought this stereo from your link... it’s slightly too small for my 2001 accord and also didn’t come with the adapter plug to fit my car.. or wifi, etc.. I’m going to try and make it work. I appreciate the video, never know with eBay? Anyway, thanks
You have to buy the dash kit separately. That will come with the wiring adapter to fit your car and the bracket to make it fit inside of the radio opening
@@ibbryant17 ah okay. I went to my local car audio place and picked up an adapter.. aside from a slight gap around the stereo, I’m pretty happy with it. I appreciate your videos 👍
@@ibbryant17 okay thank you and last question I’m sorry , is there any thing else I get the screen… any tools I would need and I can do this completely by myself?
100% worth it the factory unit is super lack luster. But this radio is louder way more clear and is super useful with the Android auto and apple car play
@@ibbryant17 thanks cuz rn I have a Bluetooth transmitter and my phone plays in the car but has a static noise since I need to put my radio at the least static and sometimes some songs don’t sound good on the speakers or static overload, I just want a straight aux connect
It makes the radio sound incredibly clear. I would upgrade your speakers still cuz the head unit I have will be way too much for those old speakers to handle
It's not too hard once you buy all the adapters you need. And then just look up your radios wiring diagram. It's mostly just matching up colors to colors though. Aftermarket has created a standard that everyone uses
Thanks for responding. Do you know what wiring harness? I assume if I buy wiring harness I simply plug that into cars factory harness then to the back of the new head unit?
You have to wire it yourself but it's very easy. Get an adapter harness for an accord in your cars year. The head unit will come with it's own plug. Then all you gotta do is match the colors and it'll work
I’m revisiting the video. It was extremely helpful at the time. Still a good reminder. I’m going to take it back out and wire the microphone in
Thank you I love the support y'all give me.
@@ibbryant17rrrgr😮😮lol 😂try
@@ibbryant17what the anti-theft security system in the radio
Do I need to put the code in the radio first or can I just take out the factory radio
Just remove the factory radio no need for a code
I love how easy it is to install headunits in these 6th gen Accords. Ive done installs for family in other types of cars and SUVs, such a pain in the ass with some of them
Absolutely. It's easy and honestly fun to work on these accords
51 and I was born into street racing (60's muscle cars). One thing my dad told me was, "hot rods/race cars are bottomless money pits".😅 They're definitely fun but 99% of the time you'll never get back what you put in them.

Hell yeah man I'm glad to hear it.
I laughed when you said it'll never be a race car
Mines getting there
Mine would have been if it was manual. By this time it would have been boosted already
could we get links to everything you bought?
"They don't work to well, They just Suck" 😭💀🤣 Love that line bro! You just got a new sub! Nice install all things considered.
Thank you for the support I appreciate it

Did you use the Metra 95-7895 98-02 Honda Accord Double Din Dash Installation Kit?
Yes that looks like the one I used
@@ibbryant17 The American Industrial HonK831 sits flush on it if you just pair the faceplate with the Metra brackets
Does the steering wheel controls still work and did u have to bypass the parking brake with that particular stereo?
My car didn't have steering wheel controls but you can definitely get them to work if you do. There's additional interface boxes you can get. And no I didn't have to bypass anything

Could you provide links for all the stuff you used please? 🙏 Would help me a lot
I'll try to get the links put in the description today
Hey brother great video but what i wanted to know is if you can also use it to mirror from phone to radio to watch movies?
I think it does have mirroring. I would have to check though
How did you do the wiring bro? I color matched them with the harness and I have no audio
I just matched the colors and everything worked. Make sure you have good connections
I love this video man if you would be so kind to link the mounts and wires I did see another comment where you linked the stereo itself
I'll get the links right now
Where are the links at brother?
Is there a way I can get a pre wired harness ?
Probably not. Most of them are universal
What color is the illumination wire? I wired up mine and ended up messing up my ecm. I want to disconnect it so it doesn't happen again
Hey sorry for the late response I'm just seeing this now. You'll have to look at the wiring behind your radio I no longer have my accord so I can't check myself
Wish you showed the reverse wire for the backup camera I’m trying to install one on mine
I didn't wire in a reverse camera
Hey bro nice video ! i was wondering if I buy this specific header, I also want to have a back up camera. I have to buy the camera and wife different correct & hook it to the stereo right ? & does the Bluetooth diminish the speaker of the car if I connect my books to it? Please hit me back up

Would this work in a 01 accord lx and if it does do I need to buy a dash kit and which kind of dash kit and what kind of cables if needed
It will work on a 01. I recommend the metra dash kit and any adapter harness you find for a 01 accord.
Ok thx and if decided to get another radio as long as it is 7 inches it would work as well right
Yes I think so. If I remember correctly the radio I installed in this video is 7 inches
Got an ig or something so you can walk me thru it to install it on my 2001 Honda accord lx please

Great video but does the radio go dead ? Or do you have to charge the radio up ?
No the radio is wired it to the cars factory 12v system so it's powered the same way the stock radio is. No need to charge it
Ive never in my life see a radio go dead and need changing. Huhhhhhhhh
@@gardyfaustin8707 he must be new here lol

Here you go I think I forgot to share it
Did you keep the steering control?
I never had steering wheel controls but if you do yes you can keep them
I'm upgrading to a knob pioneer for about 180 doing it the budget way I'd rather spend the money in other r places around the accord
Did your dash lights go out?
I think 1 did. I ended up doing LED bulbs in my cluster
@@ibbryant17 ik a common problem with 2000 accords when replacing the radios is the lights go out in the dashboard the fuse keeps popping
Will this fit on my 94 accord?
With a different dash kit and harness yes it will
Did the kit come with it ?
Did the kit come with what?
Did the dash kit come with the radio? If no, where did you get it and and what is the reference? Thanks
Will this fit in 99 honda
It's a universal radio just buy the install kit for your specific model
@@ibbryant17 so get this specific one? How many inches it the radio 7? I’m not sure on which one to get
If it's a 99 accord then yes the same one I got and I can't remember the screen size but it's a good useable display
@@ibbryant17 okay thank you and last question I’m sorry , is there any thing else I get the screen… any tools I would need and I can do this completely by myself?
Is it worth it I have the same factory radio you had
100% worth it the factory unit is super lack luster. But this radio is louder way more clear and is super useful with the Android auto and apple car play

What is the model number? Atoto?
I think a7 if I remember correctly
How much for it?
At the end of the video I do a whole price breakdown
First 🙆🏻♂️
Bro I will PayPal you 20 if you walk me through it on facetime, I have never put in a new radio
It's not too hard once you buy all the adapters you need. And then just look up your radios wiring diagram. It's mostly just matching up colors to colors though. Aftermarket has created a standard that everyone uses
Hey man I wanted to make sure you got your radio installed. If not DM me on IG
Can you link the product link in description
No the links change over time. I used to have everything linked but the links don't work anymore so I got rid of them
Thanks for responding.
