METRA 99-7891 Single-Din Stereo Radio Install Dash Kit for 1996-1998 Honda Civic

The Metra 99-7891 is a single-DIN radio install kit for the 1996-1998 Honda Civic, and it fits all Civic models from those years. It accommodates DIN and 2-shaft radios, which is useful on a car this age because it works with a current Bluetooth receiver or a shaft-style radio without a second kit. The panel retains the factory pocket, so you keep the storage the dash was designed with instead of losing it to the install. It is contoured to match the factory dash, so the finished opening looks consistent with the surrounding trim rather than obviously replaced. For an owner keeping a well-used Civic running, or building a clean period-correct interior, this is the mounting piece that makes a radio upgrade look intentional. The kit ships with the installation instructions and hardware needed to complete the job, so a home install is a straightforward afternoon rather than a parts-run marathon.
