So, I am starting to put together all my parts to install the factory navi into my car.. I do not want to purchase the OEM Wire Harness since I will have to rip my car apart to put it all in.. (and plus it costs a boat load!) .. I am also not great at wiring.. Are there any members on here that can help me with this part?

Thanks!

So noone?

 

you can buy one for 200-300 dollars from a guy on ebay, to modify the harnesses you will still need to rip apart the car....

 

Where are you located?

i did this conversion on my car and everythin had to come out, altho we didnt take the front seats off, but when i say everythin EVERYTHING!!! Even the ROOF LINER

 

^^ wow.. thats awesome lol

I dont mind ripping up the whole car.. I do not like ripping out the wire harnesses... that is what I hate. I should have clarified that. I have removed everything in a car before to the bare metal. And the part that was the biggest pain was removing the wire harness and making sure they run all correctly. I hated that because it was the hardest part to remember.

Do you know the name of the ebay guy who makes the wire harness? Can you pm me if anything? Thanks!

Csmeance.. could you possibly help me out with this swap once I have everything? lol

Thanks!

 

that is awesome. Can you tell me how much money you saved by doing it yourself?

 

I dont know yet.. since I do not have everything yet.. once i have everything then i will try and do this.. then i can tell you.. but the dealer wont even try to add navi to a non navi car.

 

theres actually a guy on ebay that has everything but the navi drive up.. his auction ends today. Its not a bad deal if your gonna start the conversion. Its also out of a Type-S so you get the XMnavtraffic too. Ill try to find the guy that makes the wiring harness and let you know bzyrice.

 

Thanks man!! Ill give him a call when im ready!

 

His name is Martin (ebay user acurahondatech). You can email him at acurahondatech@comcast.net.

There is a lot to remove, but I didn't take out the headliner or instrument pod. Most of it is on the right side of the car.

 

^^^ yea I PMed him Martin's phone number. He does good work.

When I have some extra money, which might be sometime in the next month I will contact this martin guy.
