Default Quick question - I'm sure you know it

how do you remove the headunit/radio from a 5th gen prelude? Seems like it would be common knowledge, but I really have no clue. Can anybody help? Thanks

In most Honda's you have to remove the center console.

Well, take the shift knob off by pulling down the shift boot, in the center console there's usually a few screws, few more on the side, then it should just lift up.

All older Hondas I've had have been this way. My 6th gen Accord was different though.

Well I'll be damned the Prelude is the same way as 99% of the other ones are. :chuckles:

Good find WiLL.
