Need ideas dor the dah

[SSJimmy]

I relocated my Radio and know i dont really have anything in the stock loacton do the make a pocket that is the size of a radio to put in there or am i stuck with block off plates . Any other ideas also im up for aything just need something there. here is a picture oh how it is i moved the pocket from below but it doesnt fit to well in there.

I didnt know LX's had tachs.

Your radio looks sweet there and I like how it doesnt attract as much attention.

Make some trim and fill in the gap? It looks fine to me. Id leave it there or you can get a blank piece of plastic and cut it out to cover up the cubby hole.
Can this be done to a 99-00 Civic?

Just leave a big, ugly hole. That way any would-be thieves will think someone beat them to it. Lol.

 

[wetcmonkey]

lol ya i left it big hole its ugle as hell the way you have it is nice, but if you can get a block late go for it, as for the tachs the only one that didnt have a tach is the dx all other came with.

Are you referring to relocating the CD player to the lower din by the cupholders? If so then your answer is no, unless you get the 96-98 cupholders.

I think that's badass. If that pocket fit in there that'd be ever better.

 

[HustleAndGrow89]

f**k man i had the same question. i wanna put the radio where the cup hholders are.... so i gotta get 96 - 98 cup holders?

 

[SSJimmy]

yeah you have to have the 96-98 cup holder and its pretty easy to put it down there.

Does anybody know if a DIN pocket will fill the entire opening I see Crutchfield has a universal pocket but not sure if it will fill the entire hole.

It should fit the entire opening, but I would think you will still need your dash kit.

yeah I know the Dash Kit has to stay the universal pocket just looks alot like the pocket is there now i wish i could get the dimensions of it. I also saw a cup holder with a little drawer on here but not sure where to get it from its like a block off plate and the cup holder comes out of it.

I left the stock radio in there so would-be thieves wouldn't think I have anything special.

No they are basically the same thing, just with the lid.
The 2 things i hate about 6th gens are: the cupholders.. they are either too big or too small, they are NEVER the right size, and the lack of ABS on 5 speed coupes

Sorry for threadjack
