I think you need to clarify your question. Are you having trouble installing or uninstalling?

I have a AVIC if thats what you are installing.

Okey I m sorry about that. I recently bougth a double din Fh-800bt. When I was trying to install it I realize that I did not hava a support for it. My question is the followinng. would it be enough if i buy double din kid, would this stuff make it not jump from the dash, or do I have to bracket it. In the store they told me they would have to bracket and take the dash out. What do you think?

there should be a dash kit for it so it will just clip in. if not you will definately have to go behind the dash peice and bracket it.

Yeah buy a double-din installation kit. It will guide you on how to install it.SUPPOSEDLY you are supposed to take the whole bezel out, but I just pried to factory deck out with a flat head. You can buy these kits at Best Buy or any car audio shop.

Good luck.

the kit sold at best buy does not do double dins for hondas (at least not my shop, others may have diff parts). the honda kits we carry are only for single din with a pocket. buy it online or at a mom n pop stereo shop.

to remove the radio there is no need to remove the whole bezel or to remove the center console even.

get a 8mm socket and ratchet. grab a flashlight/droplight. look behind the radio from down the footwell. you will see 2 8mm screws. one of the driver side and one of the pass side. just undo those, pull the radio out then pull out the other piece that those 8mm screws went through and your done! put your double din in your new kit and wire up the harness, clip in the kit.. tada.. all finished.

with any luck (assuming your a beginner) it should only take you 30 min.

To add to the great information above;

The Metra double din kit for our cb7's comes with a plastic piece that'll mount to your double din stereo, and will bolt to the location where the stock stereo bolted down.. the Scosche kit does not come with this piece, avoid the Scosche kit, it isn't built properly and the weight of the stereo (double din) could result in the plastic trim bending over time and eventually breaking, or, at the very least, leaving your stereo mounted at a weird angle in the dash.

x2.... metra's kits tend to be a lot stronger than schosche. i only recommend schoshe for dash replacement peices. like 05 06 toyota taco's, 06+ civics, etc..
