"I've noticed that an issue I've been having with my radio is more widespread than I thought so Im looking for some help with replacing my radio headunit with a compatible one.  I had the same as many: flickering screen, popping noise, switching inputs, now my radio is almost unusable.  I read that other people had success replacing their headunits and I am trying to do that.\n\nThe issue is that there seems to be a lot of models as well as faceplate codes on different 8th gen civics and some have premium audio with the external amp and some dont.  My civic does have that and the exact part it has is the 39100-SVA-A21 which I can only find one for sale and its a bit more than I have at the moment.  Can I use another model as long as its a premium audio unit with the external amp?  Does the faceplate code (4PCA in this case) matter?  \n\nIve think Ive done about as much research as I can and the dealer was no help so Im hoping to find someone knowledgeable here who can tell me if I can use another similar model.\n\nThanks"
