Man, looks like a mess.

You might have it in the coming pictures, but do you have any info\pics of what wires are going into the hazard switch? I've been meaning to take apart my dash for a while to see what colors/how many wires are there. I've been wanting one of those "comfort blinker" modules that you can program to be 3,4,5 blinks. It should still work if it has the right wires going into the hazard, even though its intended for vw/audi.

hahaha yeak i know everything had to go out but finally everything is back in place the long white wire that you can see on pic 4 and 5 is the one that goes to the hazard lights but if you want to get to it you will have to do almost all work i had to to get there haha

Looks good! I forget, is it touch screen or can you use the knob? Does it have an oem feel to it, or is it clumsy at all when trying to do things?

hmm i would say about 4-5 hours total i split the job into 2 days. I was really trying to not break any clips or connect something wrong so maybe this is why it took that long now after the job is done i can say that its a 2-3 hour job

parking radar is most likely the sensors that go on the rear bumper, they act like sonar and beep when you get closer to the car behind you. faster beeping means you are ggetting closer. hearing a boom means you hit the car hahaha

I sent in an email and this was their response:

Thanks for the inquiry.
Parking radar is for Parking Assist System,when you put the car in the rear,it will show the distance between Rear bumper and the obstacles.It can ensure that you safely go into reverse.
HDA7110 is for Honda Spirior,FY800ACCEU is for Honda Accord,they apply to different models.

I'm also trying to find out if there are any differences between these two:

http://www.smartauto24.com/honda/hon...radio-european

and the one you got.
http://www.smartauto24.com/honda-spi...ch-screen.html

They LOOK the same but there isn't a detailed description for me to tell the differences. Spirior, Euro Accord and our TSX should all have the same wiring and jounts right?
