Excellent instructions. I did this today except to replace my heater control module. Its the same procedure. Wish I would have seen this video first. Couple of other suggestions for everyone. Once the radio is removed, MAKE SURE to write down the serial number of the stereo. If you don't have the stereo code, you will need the serial number to attain the security code from the dealership or a Honda website (you can look up via google). If you reinstall the factory radio, you will need the code to make the radio operational.
Wow, what a spectacular pain in the ass. I'm starting to think the install charge at the shop down the street is looking pretty attractive! But I hate those guys, so I'm doing it myself and your video is extremely helpful, so thank you!
So I did the install yesterday, and it's not all that bad. Just tedious. But this video made it possible, I'd never have found all those screws otherwise. The only way I differed is that I didn't completely remove the panel on under the steering wheel. God knows I tried, but it wouldn't come free on the left side so I let it hang. It was loose enough to be out of the way for the rest of the work to be done.
Ash tray removal is NOT required. It may be helpful but since it takes a rare 90° screwdriver, I thought it worth mentioning. I've had that console apart many many times and I never did that step.
I've never owned a 90 degree screwdriver and I'm kind of a tool fanatic. In that situation I just use a 1/4" ratchet with a small socket that fits a screwdriver bit. Forget what size that is. Hope this helps someone that doesn't have a 90 driver but has a 1/4" ratchet and small sockets. But as said above, maybe that step isn't necessary.
Nice, still laughing-so true. Looked this up after poking at the black panel around the radio and it didn't pop out....after 1 min watching this thought the same thing.
Sorta what's happening at the junk yard... Most the people are putting things to pry with between the dash and the plastic around the radio, straight up ripping it out rendering loads of parts broken. Life in northern California...
@@alecfleming373, no different in Minnesota. The U-Pull-R-Parts closest to where I live had 5 1st-gen CR-Vs that had a torn-up dash panel, all for the radio/CD changer. Give or take, it was the one with the available cassette deck, but the things people will do these days just to save a few seconds for the parts...
Took me about 45 minutes to remove. What an absolute gong show. When you get to the end pull as hard as you can on the radio. He made it look easy. Those top clips are extremely hard if you have the CD option, since you have to bottom pocket to grasp onto
I actually shit myself pulling it out. I decided to throw in my old audio cause i thought it would be easy in a 99 crv. Got halfway through before fuckign with the stereo😭
holy shit I thought Honda was smarter than that! that is unbelievable you have to go through all of that in order to remove and replace the radio. I think it would be easier to just you take a boom box and plug it into the car outlet and turn it to hell on. thanks for taking the time to share this task from hell.
I replaced the original casete player from my 2000 crv with a cd and cassette player from a 200 honda crv I got it on junk yard and they have the same plug on the back so u dont have to cut your wires just have to remove your cassette player and the little box underneath and the new CD player will fit your crv perfect u need to get the serial number from the new CD player and just call a local honda dealer give them the serial number so they can give you the code just tell them u disconnect your battery and now your CD player asking for the code it worked for me and now I have CD player cassette and radio on my 2000 crv thanks a lot for your video I almost messed up my dashboard panels
The 2000 Crv I have has two square holes below the ashtray so the 90 degree screwdriver isn't needed. You just put the screwdriver from below straight up. The set of trim tools you should have to help pop things out are cheap to acquire online. Well worth it and I got them for under $10. Helps do the job right. Good video, very precise. Just keep track of which screws came from where.
Great tutorial. Was looking at this video to help a friend with a Gen 1. What a pain in the ass. Glad I have a Gen 2. Stereo swap takes less then 5 minutes and only 4 screws. Easy as pie. Glad Honda simplified things on the Gen 2's.
I completed this today without removing the whole bottom section. Just need to take that panel under the steering wheel off and the glove box part. From there you can pry the sides of the midsection away and see the two screws on either side of the stereo and heating unit. It's a little tight but well worth the time savings taking a dozen or more screws out and the whole bottom section out! I used a small socket with a 2inch extention to get the screw on the driver's side.
I'm totally impressed! I was wondering how you remember where all those screws go! I agree with one of the other comments, can you make a video putting the thing back together? I was thinking of doing it myself, but now, I hope to find a skillful installer.
That video was just what I needed... I am gonna replace the stereo in my CR-V and now I know what is waiting for me... I assumed it was gonna be like that, because replace the Air Cabin Filter in that CR-V is another pain in the butt...
most people are surprised to find out they have to remove all of these panels to get to the stereo. But if you own a crv and had to change your turn signal bulbs in the front you have to remove the grille, and the front bumper so that you can remove the headlight housing so you can access the turn signal bulbs. The oil filter is also a real pleasure to access, mounted horizontally above the exhaust manifold so you get to enjoy the smell of burnt oil (which if you own a Honda you have experienced at least once anyway) everytime you change your oil. Not to mention it is halfway up the engine compartment. This is why it costs so much in labor when you have these babies serviced at a mechanic. Some cars are not for the faint of heart. Excellent video, very easy to follow and understand and I feel confident in tackling this project in the next day or so to install a stereo for my GF in her 01 crv.
This video was a big help for me. I just replaced the audio unit in my 1996 CR-V which was almost exactly like it's shown here. Great help and thanks a lot for sharing! Alex
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. I would have spent two hours max before I broke out the saws all. Now I spent 15 minutes and I'm ready to go.
That was super helpful. I just needed to pop the unit out a bit to hide some wires for a Bluetooth stereo adapter and the whole procedure was not as much trouble as I thought it would be. Thanks for posting this!
Well it was a lot of work, but I did make it. Thank you very much for all this precious information. I would'nt have been able to do this without your help.
Well done! Thank you for so generously taking the time to explain this in meticulous detail. Guys like you are such a huge help to me while I "learn as I go". Can't thank you enough!
Should need no kit, either a single or double din radio works. Use the original brackes from the factor stereo and pocket if needed for single din. PURCHASE the aftermarket wire harness, save yourself a headache and get the connections right.
OMG I can see why my 99 still has the factory stereo.. I only wish it had a clock in the stereo instead of the stupid separate clock that died. Ugh this will be an all day project. At least I know ahead of time that I need to disassemble half of the car to get to the stereo lol. Thanks for the help!
Rachael B that is all made on purpose to be pain in the butt, because that era was very popular for stealing stereos out of cars if u remember. Your dead clock is a 5 min job repair. Just pull it out and resolder 4 large solder traces on the corners of the back side pcb, that kills 99,99% of the crv clocks
Great video, thanks for sharing it! My radio is locked so I was looking into finding the serial # and/or replacing the stereo. With this much work involved in pulling it out, I might just get a new stereo head while I'm at it! Thanks!
thanks a lot, without your video I would be literally "screwed"... my car is a 98 stick shift... a little bit different was just removing the stick shift enclosure... and that's about it. To put everything back together I played your movie backwards :-)
Oh my god!!!!!! Just took out my radio in five minutes on my rd1 a few days ago!! Who told you that’s what you have to do???? Massive huge over kill, wow
Great video helped me tremendously, ive done alot of car stereos and never one like this, alot of work just to remove, without this video i would have taken all day and probably broke something! Keep up the good work
I have a 2000 CRV Sport in right hand drive. The factory head unit is slowly dying and I'm going to attempt to swap it over myself but man.....thanks Honda. This is going to be a mission.
Thank you very much for this. Amazing that you didn't curse or express frustration at all the screws that needed to be removed! At what point during this process is it recommended to disconnect the car battery (and which battery connections should I disconnect)? I'm right at the point before I need to remove the kit assembly but I want to drive the car right before that point.
Need s to show more close up detailed near work area .was informational for me. But if this is your first change you may get lost and frustrated. Lots of scews ..... good luck!
I got fustrated removing the bar in front of cabin air filter so I grabbed the big panel in center with both hands and ripped half of it off. There is a huge hole there, but it is so much easier changing the filter🤗
BEFORE YOU PULL THE RADIO** If you're trying to find the serial number on the radio, simply pry under the "vents/clock/four-ways" above the radio and pull out the whole component. Then stick a cell phone with flash into the hole above your radio, take a picture and there it is.. Your serial number is right on top. You could use a mirror or something if not able to take picture but I don't think you'll be able to see the number without getting around some components. Hope this helps!
Nice. do you think I could plug into the CD changer port on the back through that vent? I just removed that panel last week to solder resistors on the clock that didn't work.
This process is not as difficult as the comment section is making it seem. You'll spend a longer time soldering your wiring harness than you will taking the dash apart.
Excellent video on how to remove! I love doing self repairs and maintenance on things, yet, I find that I don't always put them back together the original way it came. When I try to adjust the volume when playing music, it either gets louder or lower. I do have pot cleaning spray fluids to use, but would I have to still take the unit apart to gain access to it? I would consider replacing the original factory stereo/CD player with a new one, yet that would be another video for me to watch. I appreciate your terrific video, as it satisfied my curiosity and the mysteries of how to disassemble that part of the SUV. Have a Blessed Day!
there are two access holes through the plastic of the console under the ash tray for using a regular length screwdriver to access the two screws that are above the ash tray. don't need a 90* driver
I tried removing mine by first getting the empty (secondlevel) din then pop out the that black covering of the stereo, all around, two simple steps. Still works, didnt break anything, watching this makes me confused if what i did is wrong?
Thank you for the post. Although the video is intended to remove the car stereo I am wondering if I could follow the same procedure to access the interior bulbs that provide illumination to the heating and ventilation regulation knobs that are located on the central console under the car stereo. One of those bulbs has blown off and I would like to replace it. What do you think?. Cheers.
Very detailed, thanks. I have an error code on my 01 CRV. I was wondering if you guys found the radio code somewhere behind the stereo so I can start taking mines apart. Thanks again.
I did not have to remove the ashtray or glove. i just popped out the console by prying out with screwdriver and unplugged the a/c plugs and the previous plug for the radio and hooked up the wires by color and slide the new one in. Much simplier than this video
***you do not need to remove ashtray screws**** just the actual ashtray! just for anyone like me who started to panic when I didn't have a 90° screwdriver I'm the middle of removing my stereo!
I was hoping that this was a comedy video and that after removing all that shit, you simply had to pop the radio straight out of it's slot and disconnect the wires. I would have laughed and thanked the gods that it was so simple.
Curse you Honda and your anti-theft radio codes!!!! I recommend you never (unless necessary) disconnect your battery for models 00 and under. You lose your radio and need to put in you specific code. oh Honda will charge $100 apx for you to do This 10 min removal. FOH. I really fell in love with this car. I'm certainly going to make a updated version of this "car radio removal" with HD other camera angles.
What I wanna know is.... If it's such a PITA to get the radio out, why did it have to be equipped with an anti-theft feature that requires the serial number off the bottom of the radio to get the damn code.
Great Video! Is there any chance you upload a video putting a new one? I Just got this Boss radio that doest have as many connections as my old one. I have no clue on how to make ta work

This is one of the most useful comments! (thank fk i read it before starting out)
Once you remove the cup holder, you can just push a screwdriver through some holes that align with the screws up top!
You men are truly a blessing, thanks so much I’m about to start this and thought, “fuck another trip to the store for the damn screwdriver!”
thank you for the pro tip
I've never owned a 90 degree screwdriver and I'm kind of a tool fanatic. In that situation I just use a 1/4" ratchet with a small socket that fits a screwdriver bit. Forget what size that is. Hope this helps someone that doesn't have a 90 driver but has a 1/4" ratchet and small sockets. But as said above, maybe that step isn't necessary.
Thanks a lot for your precious help. The interior lights in my 99 CRV has never been so smart.
Well now I know that my radio will never get stolen
Nice, still laughing-so true. Looked this up after poking at the black panel around the radio and it didn't pop out....after 1 min watching this thought the same thing.
Well if the whole crv doesn’t get stolen
Mine got stolen lol
Easier to use a chain saw.

So after removing your engine, you can now switch your radios!
Great video THANKS.. can I suggest another video putting it back together. When I did I had a couple extra screws ..lol
Adonis Lopez lol
Same lol

I think it would be easier to just you take a boom box and plug it into the car outlet and turn it to hell on. thanks for taking the time to share this task from hell.
Back then car security wasnt as good. Who would do all this for a radio 😂
Nowadays with everything getting stolen, that is smart! No one will want to do all that work with the risk of getting caught just for a radio

Should need no kit, either a single or double din radio works. Use the original brackes from the factor stereo and pocket if needed for single din. PURCHASE the aftermarket wire harness, save yourself a headache and get the connections right.
Since mines a 97 Pos i used a flat pry bar and pryed it out...lol fix radio and duct tape it back in. Rockin to the oldies in no time.

Great help man, i appreciate it so much thanks! BLESSINGS
excellent video. good sound, in focus, well represented. a 10 all around.
I found to take out the 2 screws you dont need a right angle tool, there is 2 squares where you can use a long screwdriver to take them off
This process is not as difficult as the comment section is making it seem. You'll spend a longer time soldering your wiring harness than you will taking the dash apart.
I just depin the factory plugs and use it for the aftermarket radio wires.
Seconded. Super tedious but not difficult at all.
Awesome. Note to Honda... nobody is going to jack a crappy stock radio. CD player or otherwise.

there are two access holes through the plastic of the console under the ash tray for using a regular length screwdriver to access the two screws that are above the ash tray. don't need a 90* driver
This was a great video ! I installed my new radio in in 1hr...
Thank you very much. I sell bezels on Ebay, and needed this one
Great Video, so helpful, Love your Right Angle Screw driver
Thank you for such video. I will not try to change mine now 😂
This is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Thanks for such a great tutorial.
Super handy video! Thank you!
oh my lord that is a lot of work just for a radio
Thanks a lot for posting this helpful video
Awesome video. Just removed my stereo. Thank you!
Thanks, this came in very handy today!
Thank you , Honda does make it easy
excelente me sirvio mucho, GRACIAS
Very detailed video. Thanks.
I tried removing mine by first getting the empty (secondlevel) din then pop out the that black covering of the stereo, all around, two simple steps. Still works, didnt break anything, watching this makes me confused if what i did is wrong?
thank you for doing this and posting it!
Thx alot guys....its very helpful.....
I changed my mind. FM radio isn’t so bad.
Wow what a design
Thank you for the post. Although the video is intended to remove the car stereo I am wondering if I could follow the same procedure to access the interior bulbs that provide illumination to the heating and ventilation regulation knobs that are located on the central console under the car stereo. One of those bulbs has blown off and I would like to replace it. What do you think?. Cheers.
It is exactly what I need, thank a lot. Great!!!
Great vid.. Came in handy thanks..
thx for this great video just what the doctor ordered
that helped so much! thank you
Great Video Thanks!
Very detailed, thanks.
I have an error code on my 01 CRV. I was wondering if you guys found the radio code somewhere behind the stereo so I can start taking mines apart.
Thanks again.
thanks a lot for your help.....why would they make it this difficult?
Is a dash kit necessary for an aftermarket radio install? Thanks for this video, I was about to just pull off the bezel around the stereo!
I did not have to remove the ashtray or glove. i just popped out the console by prying out with screwdriver and unplugged the a/c plugs and the previous plug for the radio and hooked up the wires by color and slide the new one in. Much simplier than this video

Thank you for this video. Now my dumb ass has to help my daughter's boyfriend replace his radio as I said I would until I saw this video 😕
thanks man you help me out alto today

Exelentisimo
well shit this means I'm going to pay for the 85 bucks in best buy to install because there is no way in hell I'm doing all that
How do you make the original pocket work with the radio? Maybe the radio I got doesn't work with the factory mounts..
Great Video! Is there any chance you upload a video putting a new one? I Just got this Boss radio that doest have as many connections as my old one. I have no clue on how to make ta work
This is when you realize engineers over think things.
Thanks man
