For the guys that want to do this conversion. Do it, this tutorial is by far the best one among the others that are available right now. That said dont be fooled by how easy it looks. I just finished my conversion and it took me 2 days (having work and a hobby isnt a good combo), this guy clearly knows what hes doing. I followed the project step by step, some parts where easy some where hella hard like trimming the tray, and wiring the console. All in all the ac possition was very clean. Great video and as a guy who just finished it id like to say take your time and dont rush it. Mistakes will happen some of which you cant afford happening. Thank you man, great and clean video.
@@JCYTbrother I’m here in the states and having a hard time getting the harness APP070 everything I looked up is more in Australia and they will not ship to the US as there is something equivalent in the American market harnessed?
Mate the quality of your videos are incredible, just started working on my '97 Civic and this seems like an incredibly useful installation. Thanks for the tutorial and the information provided.
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! A respray video would be way out of my scope but pretty cool.... I do plan on doing most of the prepwork but I'm definitely leaving the respray itself to the professionals 😅
Of the 3 videos I watched on this install this was by far the best. The relocation of the vents definitely set your install apart from the rest. Great work Brother.
Hey I just did some research cause I had the same question and it looks like it does have rca output for subs. They are the red and white out put connectors labeled as R in and L in
Thankyou for addressing what you did for the climate control relocation, I’ve got all the bits to do this 9” conversion and stoked to have a nice how to.
For anyone in the US that little strip between both the vents might be an issue for you trying to do this conversion. You may have to cut or cover that strip since we don’t have that little bit in the US fascia
@@Anita_blackman it’s not a wire. On the US faceplate there is just both vents up top with a small strip of flat plastic between each vent. In the EDM, JDM, etc. faceplate there is some dial or something between each of those vents that spaces the vents out further apart than they do on the US version
I've already bought the screen from Joy and facia as well the wiring for my 98 honda civic thank you very much for the installation footage love it bro🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
This is more of an upgrade than anything real deal ek9. Even the old jdm navigation that is available for 99 units. Great vid. Looking for this upgrade in my genuine ek9
@@zero9EK9 of course! I have had their units for about 8 years now so hopefully I can give some of my experience. The earlier models had a few issues with screen condensation and just generally really slow to operate. I have not had any major issues with their newer units. The only issue was a faulty GPS antenna which was sorted through warranty. Once you get passed setting it up like you would a phone and personalisation, it really works well!
How did you mount the cup holder exactly . I’m struggling trying to figure out to cut off the tabs or not. I have everything in but I still have a huge gap when trying to put everything back together
Hey mate, just used the screws which came with it and straight into the console. You just have to get it how you like it and then make block off plates to complete the look. There is a small gap in mine too (it's just not super obvious until you put a flashlight behind it).
on the topic of microphone placement, I will be placing mine at the top of the driver side A pillar, running it down under the A Pillar trim and then through the dash. You will forget its there and it has perfect functionality, I had a wrx done the same way
Thanks mate i think this may be the way to go. This is how mine is mounted in the RX-7. i've got it tucked behind the lower trim part of the dash behind a vent. It's working but not too well. Cheers
Hey mate I assume you mean hot to cold? Have you modified the blue cable correctly? It should move smoothly inside the blue sheath. Minimise any bend in the cable if possible. I had no issues with my sound, same as factory volume. Sorry if this is not helpful
Hey mate I'm sorry but it must be a Oceania region part. Perhaps their connectors are different I've had a look at autozone but not familiar with navigating your system. You may need to contact your local autoparts store
How can I get the vent outlets to connect to the new panel I don’t want to destroy the original if I will like to transfer it in the future or just wish to revert.
Hey mate couldn't help you with that. It is highly likely you will have some minor damage on removal so I really don't think they can be transferred twice. The stock fascias are still going for next to nothing in Australia. So it hasn't even crossed my mind.
i've actually got it mounted now behind the lower trim (there's a vent for models with cabin sensor?). It picks up ok but it's definitely not suitable for phone calls which i'm ok with. Thanks for the advice!
@@JCYT I have the same vent in my EK1 poverty pack. I had mine down in the fuse door (it was late...) And it was also terrible. I saw the cluster bezel on AliExpress and thought about it when doing a the CRV cluster swap. Really needed doing, my Speedo was registering 140kmh for anything past 80... Definitely not right. Thanks for the info on the head unit swap. I've seen the EK9 swap and gave up due to work involved. It's just an EK1 beater daily so didn't want to do anything too out there. Most I have is Integra VTI-R seats lol.
Are you trying to remove the switch by itself? The switches cannot separate from the housing from the front and you'll need to remove them together with the housing. A trim removal tool will help reduce the scratching. If it's been on there for a while it'll need some force to come off. Gently pry the housing towards you and you can move around the housing and wedge a flat head in there to keep the switch from locking back onto the fascia. Hope that helps
i will try tomorrow and tanks for advice.. i was trying to stick my fingers from behind and disconnect the wires so i can somehow push it towards me.. (i was making it completely wrong hahaha)@@JCYT
@@kaateshii3727oh definitely do that at the same time. If you can reach back there, stick a flathead in the back of the switch and push - it will come out. It's only held in by a few small tabs good luck!
Hey Jon! im thinking about using the joying unit too but unfortunately i cant find any reviews on the reverse camera for it. By any chance have you had experience with their reverse camera?
Hey mate I had the Joying AHD reverse camera on my old hilux. Worked as it should no complaints. I think most are the same product just rebranded/different casing.
Hey mate I'm sorry but it must be a Oceania region part. Perhaps their connectors are different I've had a look at autozone but not familiar with navigating your system. You may need to contact your local autoparts store
@@JCYTI ended up ordering the part on eBay from a shop in Australia. I can say it fit the same as the one in your video so I assume wiring is the same for all
Depending on what country you're front - you will need to order the LHD/RHD version but i cannot confirm if the vents will transfer over. We only have this style in Australia.
Hey mate if you're referring to the headunit i believe LHD and RHD are the same size and unit. The controls on the headunit are more biased to LHD but i haven't found this to be an issue really. The fascia you can select LHD or RHD, i can't really tell the difference between the two - it doesn't seem that the unit is angled one way or other (looks symmetrical to me)
Great video, Accidentally see it on youtube and then after i watch i subscribe and made me convinced to do conversion too! One quick question if i do wanted to install reverse camera how do i connect it?
Welcome mate thanks for subbing! Yes you can install reverse camera onto these units. Will have to purchase the generic style with the yellow RCA jack which comes with the power supply and trigger wires www.joyingauto.com/blog/post/how-to-connect-back-up-camera/
Hey mate Yes all working on my RX-7. I am running a Haltech Elite 1500 displaying OBD2 compatible sensors through my Joying headunit. Connects automatically working with both dashcommand AND Torque App. I prefer the Torque app though. This has been asked a few times so might be worth making a video on it. Let me know if you are interested.
Do you find it difficult to operate the climate control unit? I noticed in some other videos that the moving lever from cold to hot gets more stiff maybe because the cable is stretched. Has this been the same for you or does it operate as normal?
Hi mate It is not difficult but firmer than factory. It is definitely firmer in other videos as they have not cut and modified the cable. So take note the way i modified the cable and you won't have a problem. The slider controls the opening of a valve between the heaterbox and the cylinder head. Hope this helps!
Hey mate, the audio quality is better than factory. The joying headunit has a built in amplifier which is quite good. That said, i am not audio fanatic! But can confirm it is better than stock
Thanks mate I bought the radio directly from Joying. The Joying comes with an ISO universal harness and the other end i got from my local supercheap auto (i'm in Aus). I think the links are in the description of the vid.
Hey mate No plan to. It is surface rust so not concerned. My previous EKs have had it too. Pretty much every 90s Japanese car will have that on the dash support.
Hey mate They're actually just some ebay ones i screwed into the side haha My model didn't come with the slide out cupholders. We only got those in the SIR variant
Great video! This how-to has pretty much convinced me to do this conversion. Can you post pictures or a short video of the relocated climate control from up close? Just to have an idea of the overall look of it. Are there any visible gaps?
Thanks mate glad you enjoyed it! DM me on insta I'd be happy to send you a few pics. Yes you can tell I've had to modify the climate control. I havent otherwise bothered to make it factory looking. Maybe if I find some time one day I will make two side infill pieces but not fussed to be honest.

@@JCYT awesome! Thanks for the quick reply. Planning to use your video to install this in my 98 civic coupe. I'll stick to the Joying screen too. Looks clean man! Nice setup
@@JCYT Hi Jonathan, I'm having a lot of second thoughts with the Joying head unit that you have. Have you had absolutely any issues with apps crashing or anything in general with it? It's about $415 USD and I just want to make sure before I buy this. Please let me know when you have time.
Nice one buddy. So many options on the market! Just got back from a 1300km roadtrip and 2x trackdays over the weekend. The Joying was flawless worked amazing and definitely kept me awake haha
@@JCYT the fascia has an odd shape, how can I search for a headunit compatible with it? I am struggling to find a good piece with Apple CarPlay. Can you point me into a direction pls what I should look for?
Hey mate, I have! I did this a year ago - feel free to check it out: ua-cam.com/video/8sfMfSNOafQ/v-deo.html This was also a Joying unit - 8 inch model
Hi Jon, Just discovered your channel last week. Great content and delivery, keep it up👍. You mentioned you have done the ek9 climate control swap twice now, do you have any guides you have previously used to do it? I have seen a few but they all vary, some say you need to change the dash pad bar and take the whole dash out, others say you need to change the heater box, others dont. Your way sounds the simplest (and I have all the parts you mentioned) so just wondering where you got your info from before I give it a go myself? Thanks for your time.
Thanks mate! Appreciate the feedback I know it is different depending on what country you are in due to what comes with the different models. I agree there are no good conversion guides (in Australia). A mate helped me import the harness and motors from an EK9 in the Philipines. He was extremely helpful so i didn't need any guides. It was also completely plug and play apart from the centre vent modification. I can say for certain FOR AUS MODELS 1) Dash pad bar (you mean the dash support frame)? Not necessary to change 2) Heater box. Not necessary to change. I believe the blower box motor and the solenoids are a straight swap over with no modifications needed. 3) You will need to take the whole dash out to modify the vent which sits behind the skin of the dash. If you cannot source an EK9 centre vent, you will need to modify the existing centre vent (I used AC vent tape from the local hardware store). It's ghetto but worked Good luck!
@@JCYT Thats awesome info mate, very reassuring, thanks for taking the time to reply. I'm in AUS (Perth) so hopefully I have the same outcome with my conversion that you previously had. 🤞

It's honestly one of the best things about the civic!
Already installed too, and it works just fine, but a bit hard releasing AC panel, kinda hard glue on it

Accidently found it while searching on the marketplace,,cannot believe it at first,
How did you mount the cup holder exactly .

My pleasure!
I wonder if you had hit the glue with a heat gun if that would have made the removal of the vents any easier. When I do mine I'll try it.
Hey mate
Its a pretty hard brittle plastic so I don't think it'll work. I think using a soldering iron to melt off the tabs will help!
Great video, thanks for going into detail about the conversion because I just got a 96 ek coupe and I want to put a big screen.
No problems mate good luck!

I did exactly what I did, but there is a problem converting between the protector and the cooler, and also the screen sound is very low. Why?

It's probably a good thing to keep it out of temptations way!
Where did u get that double din finisher been looking for one just like that for ages

I removed the antenna from my 08 civic but do i need it for the gps? Or will if work without?

Does it support Apple CarPlay without having to connect my iPhone to it?
Yes it's wireless!
Get a gauge cluster bezel. Even if not using boost gauges, you should be able to hide the microphone in the cluster bezel behind a 'speaker' grill.

You're welcome!
Hey i have a 1995 eg gli civic would this installation still work ?
Hi mate
Unfortunately no it won't work
Do you have a link for the harness?
Hey mate
The part number is in the description. If you're in australia, they are readily available from supercheap repco
Are you able to plug in a back up camera to this screen?
Yes you definitely can! I have it set up in my other car
@@JCYT awesome! Thanks for the quick reply. Planning to use your video to install this in my 98 civic coupe. I'll stick to the Joying screen too. Looks clean man! Nice setup
@@chickenwings424 good luck! It's very straight forward
@@JCYT what's your insta?
@@JCYT Hi Jonathan, I'm having a lot of second thoughts with the Joying head unit that you have. Have you had absolutely any issues with apps crashing or anything in general with it? It's about $415 USD and I just want to make sure before I buy this. Please let me know when you have time.
I've got the fascia waiting to be installed in mine soon! Just need to find a good headunit soon :)
Nice one buddy. So many options on the market! Just got back from a 1300km roadtrip and 2x trackdays over the weekend. The Joying was flawless worked amazing and definitely kept me awake haha
@@JCYT the fascia has an odd shape, how can I search for a headunit compatible with it? I am struggling to find a good piece with Apple CarPlay. Can you point me into a direction pls what I should look for?
Hey great vid
Can this work on the ek3?
Sorry this is probably more specific to JDM models
Great video bro, question where did u get the folding mirror for that civic it’s hard to find those
Hey mate sorry for the slow reply. That is the manual mirror from the base model civic in Australia. They are abundant here (aftermarket and OEM)
@@JCYT thanks for the response anything outside the USA is always better by any chance do u have a link to the site I’m trying to order it
Did you buy the the fascia panel cord as well?
Planning to do this too because I saw your vids man
Hey mate do you mean the blue cable for the climate control? That came straight off my existing climate control unit
@@JCYT no mate, I saw at the aliexpress that they are selling the panel and it comes with the cord. Did you buy that as well?
Are you going to do a new head unit on the fd?
Hey mate, I have!
I did this a year ago - feel free to check it out: ua-cam.com/video/8sfMfSNOafQ/v-deo.html
This was also a Joying unit - 8 inch model
Hello, just got a civic EK3, and your video convinced me to do the conversion !
Do you think the display in description is ok for LHD car please ?
Hi mate!
Yes I dont see that it would have any issues. Good luck
Can it work with a camera for reverse on a Manual civic?
It will work just need to get the trigger from the reverse light I believe.
@@JCYT Thanks
Hi Jon, Just discovered your channel last week. Great content and delivery, keep it up👍. You mentioned you have done the ek9 climate control swap twice now, do you have any guides you have previously used to do it? I have seen a few but they all vary, some say you need to change the dash pad bar and take the whole dash out, others say you need to change the heater box, others dont. Your way sounds the simplest (and I have all the parts you mentioned) so just wondering where you got your info from before I give it a go myself? Thanks for your time.
Thanks mate! Appreciate the feedback
I know it is different depending on what country you are in due to what comes with the different models. I agree there are no good conversion guides (in Australia). A mate helped me import the harness and motors from an EK9 in the Philipines. He was extremely helpful so i didn't need any guides. It was also completely plug and play apart from the centre vent modification.
I can say for certain FOR AUS MODELS
1) Dash pad bar (you mean the dash support frame)? Not necessary to change
2) Heater box. Not necessary to change. I believe the blower box motor and the solenoids are a straight swap over with no modifications needed.
3) You will need to take the whole dash out to modify the vent which sits behind the skin of the dash. If you cannot source an EK9 centre vent, you will need to modify the existing centre vent (I used AC vent tape from the local hardware store). It's ghetto but worked
Good luck!
@@JCYT Thats awesome info mate, very reassuring, thanks for taking the time to reply. I'm in AUS (Perth) so hopefully I have the same outcome with my conversion that you previously had. 🤞
Where does a person source that fascia?
I'd love to get my hands on that!
Hey mate
Check the link in the video description!
Number part of the dash?
Will a 10.1 inch screen for the 9” bezel?
Hey mate
No the only screen which will fit is the 9 inch contoured sides one. The dimensions are in the link
Wow dude thats badass.. nice..
Thanks dude!
Where can I get it? I have a 2000 honda civic
Hey mate

WOW. Amazing !
Thanks mate!
Que hago si he cortado demasiado el tirador del clima?😅😅😂😔

We couldn’t 3D print it in a printing machine and customize it the way we like ??
