It can be done, either making a custom mounting for it with the lower part of your centre console, u may also be able to buy a double din one off the shelf, but the only one's ive seen are expensive carbon firbe.

You are going to need to convert your center console to a 99-00 civic. Its a simple swap. THe 99-00 have a double din opening so it will fit beautifully. I plan on getting one soon.
