8th Generation Honda Civic Forum - View Single Post - D.I.Y. the long-awaited amp integration harness by Whiterice!

Just bought an '08 SI (w/o Nav) at the beginning of this month. Last night I bought the AVIC-D3 from Crutchfield and it complained that the 70-1722 harness (Honda Receiver Wire Harness For select 2006-up models at Crutchfield.com) is not compatible. Instead told me to use a different one... (Honda Integration Adapter Bypasses the factory amplifier in select 2006-up Hondas at Crutchfield.com)

I think I want to use the Amp integration method (unless others have had better results with bypass? -- I've been reading mostly in 8thcivic and avic411). Are the radio harnesses different on '08?

Also; possibly off topic to this thread, but is there a harness for the other 20-pin connector...I know it's only two pins (Amp control and Remote Control [REMC]) that I need, but just curious.

Thanks!
