First post, question about HU

I am just wondering how I should do with the replaced stock HU, is that possible to put it into a another car, I mean another make? Say, I have a honda accord to which needs a cd player and changer, can i hook the HU to the accord?

I am no expert, but I see no reason why not as long as you have enough space in the car that the HU is going into and you get a harness to connect everything.

Buy a nice new HU. Keep the old one so you can throw it back in when you sell the car.

I used to have an Accord that I sold to get my WRX.

The WRX appears to be double DIN. The Accord doesn't have enough space in the dash to mount the HU properly (I know because I upgraded the Accord's radio previously).

Actually, I'm thankful that the standard 6-disc changer HU in the WRX doesn't fit in Hondas, or else I'm sure they'd be stolen WAY more often!!! Honda's and Acura's have had standard theft codes in their HU's for years --- for a reason!
