I decided to do a simple step by step picture filled instruction page on how to remove the head on a G3 Integra, now I already have an aftermarket radio in my car, but this makes no difference on "how" to get to where you got to get to get the factory radio out :)

Note! There is a super fast but hard method to get radio out, but you can't get it back in, the method I explain here is the "proper" way

Tools needed:
- Phillips Screwdriver (more preferable than a drill in my opinion)
- Small flathead to pry with
- 8mm socket and ratchet for factory radio removal

Slide both seats all the way forward, and remove these screws on each side.

(The screw to the left you do not have to remove)

Image



Pry up the cover under the parking brake (you'll see a small slot of the left of it), and remove these two screws

No Picture for This Step

Pull out the center console by first pulling straight back about an inch, then up and around the park brake handle

Image



Gently pry at the surrounding panel of the shifter, this piece, which goes forward to just about under thr ashtray, lifts stright up

To take off the manual shift knob, i believe you pull down on the boot, then unscrew the knob

Image



Remove this front screw from each side of the console

Image



Take out the Ash Tray, remove these two screws (the middle one can stay)

Image



Pull out the assembly by pulling straight back, take out these two screws and unplug the plug feeding the lighter with power

Image



Pull the entire lower console straight back and then up and around the shifter, and look at all the room!! The two screws holding the factory radio assembly are two silver 8mm facing straight down towards the back of this cavity

Also note that the Storage Pocket of the factory radio is attached to the radio, once you take out the two 8mm bolts (shown in next step) the radio and pocket will come out

Two screws holding in the factory screws are here (picture from Haynes manual)

Using an 8mm socket, 1/4" Ratchet, and 6" extension, these are easily accessible

To reinstall, reverse above steps
