Garage door opener?

Hi all

I wanted to know if anyone has a garage door and modded their civic to have one of those "Homelink" type things where there are buttons on either your shade or the part where the rear view mirror connects to the roof of the civic.

Anyone?

I will post pics if you need me to clarify more. I want to do this because I hate having this chunk of black crap in the car just so I can open my garage.

Hehe, yeah I'm in the process of finding all the necessary parts. If I ever finish this mod then I might post a DIY for it.

darklegacy540 is on a distinguished road

I, too, have thought about how it'd be cool to have it after seeing this after seeing it in one of my friend's car who has an eclipse... Never really gave it much thought on how to do it though.. DIY would be great
