Very informative video. I never done a 2000 civic before it was great to see where all the screws are located . I have the same year civic same color that I’m currently changing the OEM player with a Walmart Pioneer deck and also have a 8yr old 600w pioneer Amp and 10” pioneer sub I want to throw in. Thanks so much for the help on my journey appreciate it. (Liked, subbed)
btw guys, i HIGHLY suggest keeping your distance from boss as big as possible. i know he stated it wasnt a high end brand, but i cant stress enough how bad most of their radios actually are. they usually only last a few years AT MOST and are made very very poorly. they have very low quality built-in amplifiers as well, meaning the sound you get from them is very poor and quiet. if youre in a pinch for money, i understand how good of deals this brand looks like it has, but i suggest other budget brands like pioneer and especially kenwood. if you want true quality all around the table, sony has some fantastic options as well, single and double din. just be sure to do research before pulling the trigger on a radio for a car, as its such an important factor to the overall ride experience
@@DCAutoEnhancement right on. i dont want you to think i was criticizing you or your video or anything tho, it just sucks when i see people buy these expecting a lot and then getting disappointed. i work for a company that installs all different kinds of car electronics, and i work with radios the most so i see this happen a lot. have a good day homie
You make it look easy! I've had no radio for a year now 😅 will try and fix it and install my new radio sometime soon! Definitely coming back to your video
@@izzythecreator2548 it's possible that one of the two front speakers is blown causing the amplifier in the radio to go into "protection" mode and only sending power to the rear speakers. Depends on the type of radio you have
@@DCAutoEnhancement true. But I love working on cars but I'm so small & feminine that no one will teach me because they don't believe I have it in me. But I do. I'd love to be a mechanic. I used to race sled dogs. That's BRUTAL kennel work
I just bought a honda civic 1998, it has the stock stereo at the top which turns on and works but no sound emits, and aftermarket stereo on the bottom. I took out the aftermarket stereo and all the cables have the white cap you put on the orange wire you were not going to use. Does this mean all I have to do is remove the caps and connect them in order to have sound in my car?
The audio worked fine. Make sure the blue wire is hooked up on the harness going into the car. It will need to be hooked up to the blue/white wire from the radio. If it doesn't work after that, it's possible that you have a blown speaker shorting out amplifier in the radio
@@DCAutoEnhancement I did find out my particular civic does not have an amplifier, speakers were switched from my 94 civic to my 2000 they are aftermarket PRV Audio and worked perfectly, I may have a connection problem in that connection panel in the door cause the rear deck plays after connecting the same speakers to the rear.
@@tomc8829 sometimes the radio harness has them and the car harness doesn't and sometimes the car harness has them and the radio harness doesn't and then sometimes they both have them and you can actually hook them up.

I couldn't agree more. This was only to replace a non functioning radio and I was not going to be keeping the car. 👍🏼

Thanks for watching and I'm sure you can fix it!
Friend, do you happen to know why the front speakers can't be heard? Yes the speakers work but what will it be?
You say they still works so, I am wondering if the wiring is incorrect?
Thx you so much big help ❤ fyi To unplug the a c easier from the passenger side I got fat hands 😂 my lil civic Bumping now 🎉😊🎉
Friend, do you know the measurements of the screws? that hold the stero, mine are swept away and I plan to remove them from the outside
Most Honda radio screws are 8mm hex head and some are #2 Phillips or both
@@DCAutoEnhancement Thanks friend, the screws do not work and it was the size for the key, new sub!!!
Putting a double din in my 00 DX tomorrow. Nervous but excited!
I hope it turns out great!

How come I don’t receive any sound in my front speakers and only the back ?
@@izzythecreator2548 it's possible that one of the two front speakers is blown causing the amplifier in the radio to go into "protection" mode and only sending power to the rear speakers. Depends on the type of radio you have
I have the same radio that is in this video , all are color coordinated
So what could I do to get it out of protection mode
@@izzythecreator2548 unhook one speaker at a time and see if the front portion of the radio starts to make sound
@@izzythecreator2548 it's unlikely but make sure the blue wires are hooked up in case there is an amplifier in the car from the factory
Even though this video is well made and does a great job explaining how, it still took me and my dad forever😂
The next one will go better and faster. Thanks for watching and commenting!
Great.
Things take time That's called bonding time With a few f***s and son of a B*****
Dont feel bad people, ive been removing my dash alone for months, 1 screw a month haha
Learning the hard way makes you appreciate the easy way!

I ordered a jvc stereo but isn’t dis blue one it’s dis red one would it still be the same process on wiring? Or placement
Any aftermarket single DIN radio would use this process and parts.
Good vid thanks 👍 subbed

That should work. Sounds like the previous owner had an amplifier and didn't use the head unit to power their speakers.
Did this and have no audio through the speakers
The audio worked fine. Make sure the blue wire is hooked up on the harness going into the car. It will need to be hooked up to the blue/white wire from the radio. If it doesn't work after that, it's possible that you have a blown speaker shorting out amplifier in the radio

Your Amazon links take me to my past orders. Can you update those please? Thumbs up from me! Great and easy to follow.
Sorry about that I'll take a look. Thanks for watching
I got that corrected
i followed everything and still doesnt turn on
Was your previous radio working? If not, I would look at fuses
This one is fun, especially if you have an EX model that runs the dome light and keyless entry thru the stock radio.
Yes, t harness and figure out where you're going to put the factory radio. I figured by now they would have come up with a plug and play bypass
Keyless entry?? Those never came with keyless entry what are you talking about?

What is the orange wire for?
The orange wire is for illumination. When you turn your lights on it will dim the radio display.
@@DCAutoEnhancement awesome thanks. I’ve always seen them excluded and always wondered.
@@tomc8829 sometimes the radio harness has them and the car harness doesn't and sometimes the car harness has them and the radio harness doesn't and then sometimes they both have them and you can actually hook them up.
@@DCAutoEnhancementso if it the radio doesn’t have orange, no dash lights? 🤔
All that happens if there is an orange wire that is hooked up is that when you turn your headlights or parking lights on, the radio will dim.
Exactly how do I keep the radio from killing my battery, haven't done this yet. But I would like to know before I mess it up.
If you use the wiring harness, you have nothing to worry about. That happens when the red wire on the new unit has a constant 12 volts
