is the deck being taken out gonna be trashed? or saved cus if your just gettin rid of a stock one then just take a screw driver to it and it will usually pry out but if u dont wanna take the chance of a dent or crack then take out the panel screws which should be down on the side

the keyless entry and the dome light will work if you replace the headunit, my brother has a 2000 Civic VP and has replaced the headunit and everything works just fine i think its the 1998 and and older models that wont work ..... u will be fine
