Long time AZ Member and am posting this here as I haven't had a lot of luck finding solid answers elsewhere. Recently bought an 09 Accord EX-L, I-4, non-navi and it unlike the 2nd gen TSX does not come with Homelink. Seems like the upper trim level Accords have the Homelink. What I'm looking to do is add Homelink to our Accord and I know I can do this -
but am looking to go fully OEM and not have to worry about the battery down the road. I've looked at multiple Honda dealer websites, but can't seem to nail down the exact part(s) needed. Has anyone on AZ done this and do you know the parts needed? I've also read the TSX parts are cross compatible, but don't know for sure.
Any help or advice is appreciated from my fellow AZ members.

But the EX-L isn't pre-wired to power it which is why College Hills had to mod it to run on a 12v battery. But you can tap into some other power source.
Here's a DIY someone did to their 2008 Accord: www.drive accord.net/forums/showthread.php?t=13569

Finally got front air ride!
Hey fellas 
Any idea when the 2013's will hit dealer lots? The dealers around her keep telling me they don't know...I'm anxious to test drive the EX Sport 6MT and see if I can trade in my 2012

That said, dealer might have sedan out earlier to test drive.
I stepped into a small Honda dealer nearby on Sunday and was told they'll have the sedan in later in the month... didn't specify exact date though. He also told me that they already have a few of them at their storage facility.
Guess I'll be checking back on Wed.
I should but that would only get me into trouble 
Thanks! I'll just keep checking. I'm sure the salesmen know and just won't say the date.
When I bought my 2012 EX manual, it was 1 of 3 in South & North Carolina at the time crazy!
Sedan officially goes on sale Wed., Sept. 19th. Coupe officially goes on sale Mon., Oct. 15.

can anyone tell me if all 7th gen centercaps are the same size reguardless of trim level?
example.
v6-6speed centercaps will go directly on the auto wheels, or the 4cylinder wheels?
