    Default Hardwire an Accord

    I'm switching to a relatively new Accord and have been messing about trying to find a suitable hardwire option.

    Fuse box is located conveniently and I can run the wire up the pillar scrunched behind rubber liner fine. But I would like to run it above the roof liner and bring it out through the sunvisor brackets. The problem is I cant budge the sunvisor brackets and cant see how they attach. The damn car is put togther so well there is very little wiggle room if you know what I mean.

    Any suggestions out there? Obviously would like to keep as much wiring out of sight as possible.

    Bah you're turning into one of THEM aren't ya :wink:

    I dunno... I'd keep the Impala, but put police car wheels on it and a CB antenna on the back, then, you won't even need the STI or anything, just fly right through the traps and wave, if you're with the windows down say "Hey Phil howzit goin'?"

    A neighbourhood kid (G1) panicked backing his dad's Mazda out of the driveway. The kid mistook the accelerator for the brake pinned it to the floor went across 2 front lawns, over a tree and into my Impala parked on the street. He pinned it against the curb and its a writeoff

    What year accord?

    Here's the instructions I used to hardwire mine in my '06 ex. Really helped getting things apart. These instructions should work for any 7th Generation Honda (03 and up).

    Geez I never understood that. I mean... OK you think you press the brake (how you'd mistake them is another story), and the car speeds up. You press harder and it speeds up harder. UH maybe something is being done the wrong way

    Anyway my condolences in regards to your departed Chevrolet.

    I couldn't interest you in a Saab eh? I have 9 and have to thin out my fleet

    Thx for the offer but I hear those Saabs are cop magnets.

    There's even a rumour the OPP have shoot to kill orders for Saabs with Quebec plates.

    Re the Chev it could have been real bad for the neighbourhood. My car blocked him from heading into the playground
