What dealership can do this (Put in an EX radio and XM kit)?

evrodude · 05-13-2008, 03:53 AM

Hello.

Does anyone know which dealerships in the San Jose area can replace a radio in my LX with a unit from an EX and provide a security code and install a Honda XM kit?

Thank you.

Thank you.

go after market cause they will charge you out the ass if they will even want to do it... they order them like that from the factory since it has steering wheel buttons and the voice mic and so on.

Buy the radio here on the forums and the XM kit from College Hills or Majestic Honda and do it yourself. The 8th Civic has one of the easiest dashes to pull apart I've ever seen.

You can do it!

edit : Whats the difference in the EX and LX radio? I have an LX up for sale right now if your interested. All you would need is the XM kit.....

And you can go with a Sirius or XM kit that's not Honda for a fraction the cost. There is even a Sirius kit for the OEM rather than having to use the Honda XM kit.. reports coming in on how well it's working but it's like $150 verses $300 bones for the Honda XM.
