Thats incorrect.. 96+ need install kits..You can get them at Bestbuy Circuit city.. about anywhere like that.. Did you get an EX? with keyless?? if so you are going to have to leave the factory head unit in your car because it also runs the overhead dome light and keyless entry.. you can do it a couple of different ways..

1: put the stock radio back behind the console leaving it hooked up with power..

2: or you can put the new head unit down in the little compartment above the cupholders.. (If you do this you dont need an install kit.)You will have to trim a little around the trim..but not much at all to get it to fit..
