Hello TSXers,

I'm looking for a shop in the Sacramento/Davis, CA area that will be able to do the SNHOND3 modification for me as well as install a SIRIUS satellite radio in the CD holder tray.

Does anyone know any good shops in the area that have either done these kind of mods before? I'm not a handy guy so I would rather pay a professional to get the job done right.

Also, has anyone ever encountered any problems down the road with either of these mods causing slack at the dealer regarding invalidating the MFR's warranty?

Thanks in advance,
Dave

I haven't lived around there for awhile, but you can see if Paradyme car audio is still open. It's not a difficult install though. What kind of Sirius tuner do you have?

 

Welcome!

You should try SacTown Car Audio, or also try GoodGuys on Arden in Sacramento. Also, you should come to the nect Sac Meet! That goes for you to Kenny!

 

Just let me know when the next one comes up Harsheel

the GoodGuys is a good spot too.

 

Saturday the 17th!

 

The TSX meet sounds like fun... although I haven't really tweaked out my car. I've been paranoid about voiding my warranty. But maybe it would give me an opportunity to see if anyone else has done a similar mod on their audio system.

BTW. I haven't purchased a SIRIUS radio yet... I figure I would make all of the purchases at once. If you can recommend a unit that fits nicely in the storage compartment, let me know.

 

Will the GoodGuys actually perform the SNHOND modification for you? I was under the impression that they only did installs for the stereos they sell.

 

I gave SacTown car audio a call but they said they didn't know anything about the SNHOND modification. They said they had their own unit they used to get the same result.

The guy also said that they wouldn't be able to do both a SIRIUS tuner an the Aux audio adapter because having two inputs into the stereo would "blow it up". I assume he didn't mean that the car would blow up. But I don't see why it would cause any problems.

Anyone have any further suggestions?
