ok whats this i hear about installing an after market headunit ypu lose keyless entry. any body know of this and how to do it?

 

SEARCH, this has been covered, i think someone lost dome lights, id tell you straight up but i dont remember. there is something about splicing wires that come from your HU

 

go to crutchfield and input your vehicle, it will give you a listing for a wire kit that will let you hide your head unit somewhere else in the vehicle (mine's under my passenger seat)--if you completely remove the head unit and do not use a wiring harness--you will loose both your remotelock and dome lights

spend the 15 bucks to get the harness, its worth it

 

Yea, you do have to keep your original head unit somewhere in the car. And I believe you still have to keep a few wires plugged into it.

 

its only because the keyless entry is wired in with your stock headunit

 

It did'nt matter to me since I was gonna purchase an alarm anyways with keyless entry.

 

yes, we did cover this. If you are going to get rid of the stock keyless remote, you can still fix your dome light problem. Really easy to fix. You have to splice two wires together to solve your dome light issue. Do the search. I don't remember which two. It is a very ez fix. You dont even have to keep the Honda HU in the car at all. :thumbup:

 

This domelight problem. It's been a long time since I changed the head unit , but did the domelight come on when you unlock the doors?
