So, this is a stereo from my old 1984 Honda Prelude, it doesn't really work to speak of. :(
It looks okay as they go, maybe you could fill a hole with it. The radio and tape player have something wrong with them, maybe you could fix them but I don't know, right now they do nothing. Also, the fuse is broken (no thats not the only problem, haha ur funny) so that'd need replaced. The only good thing about this stereo is I hacked in an aux connector that plays featureless but true audio. You'd have to wire it up to an audio-in port yourself but the hard part of finding where the wires are in the stereo is already done. in case ur curious, yes that is how it died. I'm not a smart man sometimes.

So anyway yeah its broken but if you want to fill the hole with something that you can also plug a phone into (the controls in the stereo won't work, you'd change the volume with the phone), might work for you. Green is ground (I thought it should be cause "green" started with "g" like "ground", even though black should be ground. like I said, not so smart) and red and black are right and left audio. Also includes a piece of plastic trim it's supposed to have on the front. If you need the plastic filler compartment that goes under the stereo, let me know and I'll list it on eBay.

Note that this model stereo is different from the one used in the 1987 Prelude, that one is model CQ-LH256A. They're similar but do have a different connector.
EDIT: Dropped the price to close to the price of shipping so hopefully I don't have to throw it away eventually. Maybe someone in the US would just like to take a look at the wiring hack inside :3

Eterniti Hemera

Fri, 09 Sep 2011

Eterniti Motors, the new British boutique manufacturer, today released further details of its prototype super-SUV, the Hemera. The Hemera is essentially a heavily re-worked Porsche Cayenne, which features a ‘limousine-like rear cabin' that boasts a plethora of luxury additions such as Maybach-esque twin electric reclining seats, an iPad for each passenger and a drinks chiller. The carbon-composite bodied SUV will be hand-built in London and aims to deliver ‘considerable' driver appeal in addition to its limousine moniker which, according to Eterniti, offer customers the option of being chauffeured as well as being driven.

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4: The Commercial

Mon, 25 Apr 2011

Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 takes on the landscape There was a time in the dim and distant past (well, the 1980s) when advertising cars was easy – you just made them look as dramatic as possible and hoped viewers would think that buying the car being advertised would imbue them with endless cool. But then the world was made to feel guilt by a new religion which was even better than the Catholic Church at making its followers feel bad for anything in life that feels good – the ‘Global Warming’ believers. These descendants of the ‘Hole in the Ozone Layer’ brigade and the ‘New Ice Age’ predictors’ have managed to frighten a big chunk of the West’s population in to believing they are somehow to blame for our climate change, and in doing so have terrified car makers in to making anything other than fluffy-bunny adverts.

Mercedes SLM AMG – the mid-engined baby SLS

Sat, 10 Jul 2010

The Mercedes SLM AMG - a baby, mid-engined SLS Ever since the Mercedes SLS launched – in truth, even before – there have been rumours of a smaller version. Just like we’ve had with the Audi R8. But it seems that unlike Audi – who will be making an Audi R4 – Mercedes and AMG have decided that another front-engined supercar – even a smaller, cheaper one – would erode the sales base for the SLS.
