if i pull all the wires that was connected to it would i need any other wiring to make it work in my 99?

Superb

make sure u get the a/c controls located above the radio from the navi vehicle

thinhthan

thinhthan

how will i know if i pulled all the wires i need out?

what about the antenna?
No doubt you will need a new nav disc $185

Have you considered a TomTom gps?

It's not as simple as just pulling a couple of wires. The wires for the navi are part of a larger harness. You'll need to pull the wires out of the harness plugs. Make sure you remove the pins that go into the harness plug.

well cause im getting the navi for cheap and im installing it into a non navi.

doesnt sound cheap!
several hours of labor pulling harness wires and cutting them open in order to run them again in your car....
Hoping you have the security code for the radio...

You need the security code for the navi too. At least right the vin down of the car u are pulling it from, acura can get the code based on the serial # on the dvd unit and the cars vin.

There's a guy on ebay that makes the harness for non navi to navi cars. He makes it all plug and play so its as simple as possible for u. Ill see if I can find him for u.

Tommy99TL

sell your and buy his whole car... that's look cheaper if he give you a "cheap" deal on his car too.

thinhthan

cause he is giving me the navi for 300. and whatever i need to pull out for it than i do that.

thinhthan

if you can find me that harness than i would really like that thanks.

verify the radio and nav do work and work with their security codes before you pull anything out
- disconnect battery power and the codes will be required
That security code is critical to have,,
dont forget the newest release of the nav disc, or your house wont be on it~

thinhthan

i will

send him a message on ebay HERE and ask about the harness for your car.

thinhthan

i think ima try to follow every wire and pull everything that it connects to

thinhthan

ok i pulled almost all the wiring in the dash when i pulled the dash and stuff out so i have most of the wiring

wicked0377

isn't it better to take the whole dash out and easier?

I have the diagram if you need it. you seem to have all the parts now you have to do the labor.

i installled a factory acura navi into a 1st Gen CL and it took some work but was really worth the outcome. Like the others have mentioned, you need the dash, a/c controls, screen, antenna, "brain" in trunk, dvd, trunk bracket, and the wiring. I can't imagine you get all the wiring so what I did was use pigtails that contained the plugs with a few inches of wire coming off. Then I went and bought shielded wire were needed and made my own harness. Lots of work but again, def worth it

Good luck
