I was wondering what wiring harness do I need to put this in, I can't find the info anywhere... Also what are the things called that go around the deck and make it fit into your dash?? (and where can i get those? best buy?) |

Here are some of your parts options: http://www.installer-data.com/aacars/car_data.php?carid=1897 or for pretty much everything that'll fit your car: http://www.cardomain.com/fit/DODGE/NEON/2003 |

Silver Member Username: DkchillinVermont Post Number: 277 Registered: Mar-05 | well, I think perfect is a matter of perspective, but if you do it right and take your time then it should look fine, yes. deck installs aren't all that complicated but you do have to take care and make sure you're doing things the right way. |

Silver Member Username: BernymacRialto, CA United States Post Number: 152 Registered: Sep-04 | when you take out the stock stereo you'll see what you need. Some stock HU's are held in by different screws and so forth. Go here and see if your car is listed http://installdr.com/QuickWiring.html , if your car is on the site then you can see what tools you need and how to take out the stock HU and so forth. |

Bronze Member Username: BassfiendPost Number: 19 Registered: Aug-06 | Nope, http://installdr.com/InstallDocs/DCP/Neon.html It's only for '94 - '98 neons... Where else could I get info on how to install? or should I be able to figure it out myself just by looking and intuition? |
