Great video and informative on how to actually remove the radio and what wiring adaptions were required. My Honda cd radio is knackered controls are intermittent and losing channel so tried to fit a Sony after my mate gave me a cd radio he had spare. This one is obviously more modern than my 2004 Honda's as it has a USB port. After that it all is a little vague. I couldn't use the brackets on my Sony CD Radio there was no hole alignment and the two centering pins on the Honda brackets prevented any form of connection so had to scrap the whole project. I noticed there was no video of you attaching the brackets to your chosen stereo replacement how did yours connect so neatly?. Also the plastic shelf did not fit so flush even if the brackets had worked. So viewers beware it's not as straight forward as it looks.

I had the exact experience, tried to install sony but there were no screw holes on the side. That is making me hunt for JVC like the one in the video but there are no pics of the sides on internet for any of them I looked so far. If someone has some model installed with bluetooth enabled out of the box with just the cable mentioned in the video, please let me know.
