It is very easy....just make sure to get the correct wiring harness at Best Buy, Circuit City, or any stereo store (about $15) and it is pretty much just a matter of matching colors....piece of cake. Save your $40 or whatever it costs, you can do it yourself.

It's pretty easy. Took me about 3 hours to replace the radio, run wiring for the amp and hook up the subs. (1st time in the Teg but not the first time ever) Just take your time and be careful. Be sure to get the wiring harness and dash kit.

This site has some useful Integra specific info too.

there is actually an easier way to do it also...
if your radio is a fairly new one...you can buy "smart cables"
one is for your oem harness...it has a universal plug on it...and the other one is for your aftermarket radio...it plugs into it and has another universal harness, they plug together and you're wired up...
you can get these plugs @ circuit city
hope this helps some...
if you need tips on how to get your radio out pm me... i am a sales counselor @ circuit city so i know a little bit about installing, and if i don't know how to do it, someone i work with does...so just le me know
