Yes it does, I just tested it again. Works just fine.
Try using a pc rather than a phone. There is a .docx in that directory.

Happy days thanks! Can anyone update it to add more content as they go?

Hey,

Just bought a new stereo as bored of listening to my radio.

I fancy the DIY challenge but what tools will I need. When I got the stereo I bought the double din bracket thing, the wiring adapter thing and a radio adapter - all from halfords so I think I'm sorted for all the bits just not tools!

There is a long adapter for a socket set that you need, apart from that not a lot, just screwdriver and some common sense Remember not to force anything, too much force should tell you it's wrong

Is that a standard tool or something I need to get specially? Me and tools don't go normally lol

You don't need it.

Scary for the first time (especially when the car was brand new), but its easy. Just don't force anything.

Cheers mate as I'm seeing some guides with tools and some without.

SO 100% to get every part off and out including the stereo cage I don't need any tools?

Strange how I and many others have managed it.

The hardest bit is pulling the silver facias off. But just be gentle and it wont snap.

Don't think I used a long tool for it

Can't believe this still lives on

[ady_civictyper]

Is it ok to run both the amp wire and remote wire to head unit down the passenger side.

Also how do you get in the wiring under the side trim without removing the panels as in the guide?

Thanks

[gringosteve]

I ran them both down one side without issue but made sure they were good well shielded cables. I pushed the cables under the side trim with a credit card
