The '94 Civic did not have a pocket under the stereo, so it does not
apply. Looking at the 94 Accord instructions at
http://www.installdr.com, it seems they are able to replace the stereo
while retaining the pocket. See

Looking at the Crutchfield site, they have two mounting kits for the
Accord, Item #120997892 that comes with a pocket, and Item #120997890
that seems to replace the pocket with a blind cover. They are priced the
same, so perhaps if you buy from them you can talk them into giving you
the kit with the pocket instead of the one without. Give them a call,
their phone reps are surprisingly knowledgeable.

The usual suspects for installation kits and wiring harnesses are:
