Thanks for the advice Steve. Any problem prying out the panels/covers?? That's my biggest worry, damaging the
plastic.
I've been prying away at my 98 Civic this weekend to install speakers, but it's 4 years old, not 1 week. I call that
car the "rolling garbage can" since my wife drove it before we got the Ody last week, she never throws anything away,
it ends up on the floor of the car. I hope to finish cleaning it up this weekend. No eating in the Ody!! But that's
another rant.
Actually, the dealer was very good during the buying process. It may have been the salesman that told me the alarm may
not be warranted if the parts weren't bought from them. Since Handa is an authorized dealer, I would think any local
dealer would install them without a problem.
I'm the "do it yourself" type ( I've watched This Old House and Hometime since the beginning), but with 3 kids (4 & 2
years & 7 weeks old) I don't have allot of time to spend anymore. I've done allot around the house: tile floors;
suspended ceiling; ceiling fans; whole house fan; replaced all of the light fixtures, switches and power outlets in the
house; and added 3 new electrical circuits & network wires (I really like electricity). I have no problem fishing
wires, but have almost fallen through the ceiling once doing it. It's the little slips that can ruin an otherwise
great job.
I'd like to install the alarm myself, not only to save money, but for the challenge.
My next challenge is to figure out how to park this Ody beast, I've been driving small cars for years (see my sig).
I've only tried a couple of times so far, with less than stellar results.
Thanks again for your help.
