Rep Power: 0 I broke it down into ttwo parts: 1. install the alarm/RS/keyless unit
2. install the 555I, antitheft bypass
the tutorial is planned out. read all the diagram, i marked all the wires you need and not need and maybe needed for installation. if you have ?, just ask.
whats good about this tutorial is that you can pretty much get any DEI products. theres like 10 diff type of units made by DEI that have an exact diagram.

The hardest part is splicing in all of the wires, especially the ignition kill, since they are so large. Other than that, routing the wires is the second hardest thing.

Rep Power: 0 ill install the exact unit on a buddy's 01 prelude tomorrow.
some of the wire is kinda hard to read. the ignition is the easiest place to splice through, all the honda and acura have worked on the past are very similar in guage size and insulation size.
you prolly didint open the steering wheel shroud like i did to access to top end of the harness.

Rep Power: 0 its all about find wires and connecting them together
here are some of the things you need to remember. these task takes practice and self torture when you first beginnin to install car alrm/RS this honda is quite simple compare to the others. as long as you read it several times and ask what you need to ask, anyone can DIY this.

Had one installed on the wifes Highlander. They came to my job and installed it in the parking lot. It took about 3-4 hrs. Best investment ever! Now my wife and kid won't freeze anymore waiting for the car to warm up. 
The damn thing can start the car 1000 ft. away. Good when you are at the mall. By the way you still have to insert the key in the ignition and unlock the car with the remote (car stays looked while warming up). If you forget you started the car it will shut down by itself in15 to 20 min. It will also shut down when you press on the brake if the key is not in the ignition in case some a$$hole tries to jack you $hit.
All and all pretty good stuff I hope you enjoy yours.
