Hello Acura community,

I purchased a replacement head unit for my Acura TL w/ nav (radio, nav, and climate control buttons) and I was curious if this can be done at home without any programming.

• Is it plug and play or do I need to program the steering wheel, backup cab, nav system, radio or anything?
• Can I just take out my old one by unplugging and then plugging in the replacement and walla, all should work?
• Of course I can use the serial numbers to get the codes for the radio and nav but is everything else easy enough or does this need to be professionally installed?

Any insight into this is very much appreciated. Thank you for reading!

No sir. Simple old school level tech in these cars. Just have the radio and nav security codes for the new units and you should be set. Just a matter of disassembly and reassembly

 

Thank you kindly for your response!! I really appreciate. I will try to do on my own and if I get stuck I will have to ask my local audio mechanic to finish.

Have a great day!
