Hi, i have a 2002 Honda Accord LX V6 coupe, i was wondering if anyone has installed a double din in-dash tv of cd player in one. Also, what is a good in-dash tv system to get, i want to get one but not too sure on what to get. Let me know what ya think.

Get ready to drop the bank on what you want.

I have a 98 Accord V6 and I just bought the Eclipse double din TV/DVD/CD/NAVIGATION system off of Ebay for $904.00 shipped. I haven't seen the installation manuals yet so I don't know how indepth they go, but while I wait for the unit to arrive I want to do a bit of research so I can get the unit installed as professionally and quickly as possible. It seems pretty straight forward except for having to tap into the speed sensor and install the GPS antenna. I was wondering if anyone has attempted this by themselves and if so do you have any tutorials, advice, or things to watch out for?

I just noticed on Crutchfield that the Eclipse double din doesn't fit a 98 accord. I emailed them and they told me that the accord double din slot is too big for the eclipse unit and if I took it to a custom installer then they could make a bracket that would make the eclipse unit fit does anyone have any ideas about how I could get around this cheaply?

I sure dont know and dont know who to ask for you...Try your local Stereo Shop and see what goes there, maybe some one can shed some light here in the forums...Comon Girls and Guy's!

usually u can find some kind of pocket or a dashkit for the doubledin its not hard to make a bracket for urself if u want i can guide lol, have u looked into the pioneer it will work forsure i believe cause i have seen one b4 in a 98 accord

I haven't looked into the Pioneer but I have allready purchased the Eclipse because it was such a good deal off of Ebay. Luckily, I work at Borgwarner Automotive as a test engineer and I am friends with other engineers and tool makers so I'm sure somebody will come up with an idea to make this work. I was just wondering if anyone knew of a bracket that I could just buy. Who knows if I have one designed then maybe you'll be seeing them on ebay sold by me. LOL

Ok, I found the bracket on Ebay for $12.00. I knew somebody had to be making these. Just go to Ebay and type in "accord double din". At the time I bought the last one but here is the link if anyone wants to check it out.

I stopped by an Eclipse dealer earlier today just to see how much they charge for installation of the Navigation unit and they told me $250.00. That is way too much money for such a straight forward job. I mean I could see if they had to customize a bracket or something. Anyways they also told me that if I went and did it myself then my warranty would be voided. Does anyone know if that's true or not because if it is that sounds like a hell of a racket these guys have.

it is treue
if someone who installs it is Certified to do so then it doesnt void the warranty if u have a professional installer do it...... if u dont and u do it urself yes it does void the warranty go have best buy intstall it

I talked to the shop I bought it from and they told me to put their info down under who installed it on the warranty card. So now I can do it myself and still keep the warranty.

Someone told me that if I remove the stock radio and install the Eclipse then my keyless entry on my Accord won't work. Can anyone verify this?

Ok guys, I have the navigation unit installed all I have to do is tap into the vehicle speed sensor. WHERE IS IT? I have a 98 accord V6 Sedan.

I take it back don't buy from the company selling on Ebay it has been 2 weeks and they still haven't shipped yet. I paid 5 minutes after auction ended through paypal. I don't know what this companies problem is.

That's one of the reasons I don't like to buy from Ebay, I don't care if they have a pretty good feedback score, I still don't buy from anyone at Ebay, I'd rather spend a little more but buy it locally. I have a friend who bought an amplifier and it took them 7 weeks to ship it[:@]

I actually reordered the same parts form another company and allready received them today. I left two negative feedbacks on ebay one for the bracket and one for the harness. I can't understand why people leave positive feedback and even neutral feedback when shipping took almost a month. I think people are just scared that they will get negative feedback if they leave negative feedback.

I still haven't got the navigation hooked into the speed sensor. I have a 1998 honda accord EX and I am told I need to look for a grey harness under the center of the dash and tap into the Blue wire with the white stripe on it. I CAN"T FIND IT! Does anyone know if it's on the drivers side, passenger side, or if the harness is grey, blue, green. I need help to complete my installation. I know somebody knows so please help a brother out. If you have pictures or something please send them to me tkrzysko@hotmail.com. I allready have wire diagrams.
