Anyone know of any specific install issues in a 2000 Civic sedan?

looking into one, want to have a heads up before the deal goes down.

I am would say that I am 99% sure there is an interface adapter to fix this, and I am also pretty sure that a 2000 doesn't have that issue but you might want to look into it.

That got blown out of proportion. My 1997 doesnt even have that problem, very quickly after the initial launch they made the radio and keyless/alarm a seperate box that was just screwed to the radio, you could take the brain off and put it back in the dash and replace the deck no problem without messing you alarm or keyless up. So no worries. No real install problems to note for the 96-00 Civics except for maybe a weak 75-80amp alterator and small OEM battery (group 51N). But that can fixed with another alt or second battery/better battery.
