How much did you buy it from the junk yard? Ebay is selling them for about 45-50 shipped. I might wait until it's warmer to check out the junk yards if it's cheaper. Unless you want to sell me one of yours for cheap

My garage door opener is on the visor...
I thought the hands free device was more important...
This is what my install looks like.

I like the 3.5L unit as it has door and map lights... just no home link.

Once I get the Accord unit installed, the 3 spare lights (CL/3.5L/Accord) will be posted for sale.

I hope to play with the wires (I have the 2 wires harness for both Accord lights) soon and see how well the system works.
I assume that the homelink needs a 12V constant feed and a ground.
