Makes it a whole lot easier, when you unplug the factory radio you'll use this to plug in to the existing harness. That way you won't be cutting in to the factory wires

The best advice I would offer. would be to take it to Best Buy for installation. They did mine and I bought the radio somewhere else. It works great and the unit is one of the best I have ever had.

The best way to get the right answer to your question is to read the compatibility list for the product. That is what I did, but I did not install them in a Honda Accord.

That's what I put in. 96 Accord DX 2.2.... It's been in for 3 months and works perfectly

Yes..... but you can get away with the cheaper harness if you dont mind loosing the audible "ding ding" like when you open the door. Since the vehicle info like check engine lights ect... run through your stock radio, its a bit more complicated to add an after market radio. Good luck. It was a nightmare for me when I upgraded, but I had other issues. Id recommend having someone who knows what they are doing do it for you.

You will not need one. They didn't start requiring antenna adapters until 2002 in that vehicle.

IF your vehicle has the AUX input jack (unlikely) OR (and this is what most people miss) your 99 Honda Accord has a cassette tape player. If you have that cassette tape player than you need 2 additional items: 1) a cassette adapter (this goes into your cassette tape player and you can then take the 3.5 mm output jack and plug it into a mp3 or some other device) and 2) you need a 3.5mm female to 3.5 mm female adapter. You plug the 3.5 mm output jack from the Kinivo and the cassette adapter into the female to female adapter and that makes the connection. You now have the audio from the Kinivo playing through the stereo system on an older vehicle that does not have an AUX jack.

Yes, just connect this to the harness that comes with your aftermarket radio. It plugs directly into the factory wiring. Good luck with your install.

Yes you need to buy a separate wiring harness and possibly a trim kit depending on wear you are putting the stereo in your car.

I'm not exatcly sure what the slot in your dash looks like, where the stereo goes, but if anything, all you may need to get a dash kit, for your car......and it is always good to get the wire harness, for any vehicle that you're installing a stereo in. Also....I always use end connectors, on head units....they're small, so the don't take up much room, behind your head unit, and they provide good continuity.

You will have to pull the head unit out and connect this into the wiring harness between the radio and where the harness plugs into your vehicles factory wiring. It's not difficult, but you may need to solder or re-crimp the connections depending on how your wiring harness adapter is installed. I would think that Best Buy or a local car stereo shop would do the install for a few $ if you don't want to mess with it.

I'm not sure I understand your question. I installed a similar product in a 2004 Accord with Sirius Satellite Radio and Navigation and it works OK, although we do not use the Satellite Radio anymore. Your best bet is to make sure the seller says it is compatible with your specific vehicle.

Its new with cables..BUT you might not need it. Call your radio manufacturer cause alot of the new aftermarket radios use part sxv100 or 200 its the interface and tuner in one.

Yea you need a converter from the cars wiring box to the radio you are going to install. Otherwise, you'll have to cut all wires and then connect directly to new radio wires.

No, you will need the complete dash kit + harness + antenna adapter usually sold together, this item alone will not get the job done

I'm not sure but I am sure of this you will need a new dash din which is what holds the stereo. Take it to a audio shop to get a pros opinion
