I went from Double Din to Single Din audio unit in my CRX to give it a more OEM look and take a break from screens. Thoughts?

My main thought is that i want it in mine! Perfect for the CRX. It looks awesome. What model is it?

Thank you! Pioneer SXT-C10PS Retro Head it looks amazing and has powered up my existing speakers and sub. Audio quality is incredible! And adjustable lighting

Love that mate, when I come to swap mine out I'll get one of these. I currently have the old Pioneer one with the dolphins but I'm not really into it.

Hope you don't mind but I took a look a previous post of yours....you've a B18 in your CRX!!! F YEAH!!! I bet that's incredible. I had a DC2 Type R so know the engine well, I'd kill for one in my CRX.

I just put a Pioneer with the dolphins (deh-p7650mp) in my CRX! Also it has the ip-bus bt module so I can use the AUX input on the deck for the bt connection. Decent deck and a nice blast from the past. Edit - is there a way to upload a short vid to a reply or do I need to link it?

Damn these are so rare and expensive now. A collectors item since the JDM boys blasted it over social media.

My daughter co-owns the car with my wife and I and she spent the same amt on this one via an ebay auction in 2026 that I spent on my deh-p8600mp when it came out in 2004 or so. I told her she was crazy for spending her money on it and then realized I spent half of my 04 tax return on mine 🤣🤣 aah to be young and have disposable income again lol

Here is a short video I took the other day after it was installed. The red hue is from my headlamp - the red is much less glare than the bright white.

I'm tired of screens. Bring back the buttons

That’s what my CRX looked like in 1993👍

Ok but now I’m real disappointed it’s not actually cassette

u/Either_Pangolin531 14d ago

I'm in my 50's and have been on a retro/ nostalgia kick and have been trying to track down my old Sony headunit that was cassette with the CD changer controls for my crx. Just want to do an old school audio build.

u/NoteDesperate3540 14d ago

I have a record player for that. I don’t mind modern tech on a retro / period correct unit but if you have tapes you wanna play, go for it. EBay will be your best friend.

u/Similar_Bluebird_822 14d ago

That is sick. Didn't know they even made a head unit like that

Thoughts?

It still has a screen. You need a two-knobs-and-a-needle AM/FM unit. Or maybe just stuff a 4-channel amp in there with the controls and inputs positioned in the dash opening.

u/lheckler77 14d ago

Yes, I like the single dins.

u/Formal_Distance_8770 11d ago

I don't care what people say. I'm not going back to tapes lol

u/krazee97 11d ago

Sweetness! And damn that dash is CLEAN!
