I need your help on how to remove the factory installed Honda Civic 1997 radio. I am planning to replace it with a JVC CD player.
How do I install the JVC CD player and also keep the Honda Cassette player?

If your car dosnt fall into the category below, it will be a little different. You should specify what kind of Civic you have.
N-E-ways, if youve got an EX or LX open glove box and empty it, swing it down to the floor to expose screws on panel that goes below radio. Remove screws along the sides of the shifter all the way to the back where the armrest is. Once both sides screws are out, move those two pieces. Two screws up under in front of radio, right above power outlet. Also move the panel under the steering wheel as to expose the two screws on that side like what’s behind the glove box door on the right. Move the panel that the power outlet is on so you can get up from under the radio to loosen/remove the 2 silver bolts that hold the radio in from below.
If you want to move the separate tape deck or single cd player mounted there then unscrew the 4 screws that hold the tape deck and drink holder in. You'll have to slide the stereo forward in order to get to and unplug the cable to this unit, cd or tape.
Let me know if that does the trick.

also keep in mind that if you have keyless entry and want to keep it that the factory radio has to remain powered and in the car to work.

is it possible to somehow hardwire the keyless entry component of the stereo to the car?
if so, how?
