Unless your headunit has a USB port specifically for reading USB flash drives, I don't see it happening.

03 Civic is a very modifiable car to get an OEM look with a screen and computer... A computer plays mp3's. And it will do more than any mp3 deck.

Does your stock headunit have CD changer controls?
If so, this might work for you.
