[QUOTE="CamaroZ28c, post: 8717912, member: 681061"] Hi, hoping someone here can help a novice out. I recently sold my old Accord so I took the head unit, amp and sub out to move into my current car, a 2013 Honda CR-V EX-L. I didn't want to mess with the stock appearance, or risk losing the functionality of the stock head unit (steering wheel controls, bluetooth, rear DVD unit, etc) so I decided not install the Pioneer head unit and only the amp and sub.
