Hey... i just bought this head unit for 200 bucks:

My question is... can out stock head unit go into other cars?

 

most likely just other CL's maybe an accord 94-97...but who knows maybe it's universal for all Acs and Hondas

 

yea it fits some year accords and i think integras. when i sold mine on e bay i checked around and found the exact years.

 

The stock head unit from a non bose 2.3Cl is the same head unit as an Integra. I'm sure exactly what years, but I know my buddy's 99 Integra came with the same radio as mine.

 

so a no go on my camry?

 

most likely no...unless you hardwire...but thats getting serious with test lights and bullshit...

and the acura headunit doesnt have a harness in the back so you would need to purchase one...Somewhere??

shoulda bought the accord instead of the camry...

 

i let one of my friend use my Bose HU on his integra. as long as the harness fit...it'll work...but they'll need a amp if its with the bose.

 

Hey green972.2,

Actually yes your headunit can work in any car but it will take wiring. Not just a plug and play. So for the Camry...you're going to have to go to Best Buy or an audio store and buy an Acura CL wire harness and a Camry wire harness. Using the color codes given to you with the two harnesses, match them up, and crimp them together. After having that done then it will be plug and play, as you now have it with a camry plug, plug it into your camry's adapter and voila, good as any other headunit.

Hope this helps you,
James

 

umm i dont think so man

 

Uhhh, what do you mean? Ok, my fault. It would be just a tad more complicated...and it would mean messing with your CL. For the head unit to work in a Camry you're gonna need a harness for the camry and the other harness you need is that from your acura. You're gonna have to just cut it. The aftermarket you have now is gonna have to be crimped just to the cut wires in the CL.

Now you have both harnesses and that should work. My fault, I was thinking of aftermarket headunits the whole time I wrote that last post.
