If you can post some pics of it it will be great. This bastards at Fry's also cut along all the black plastic tubes to install the wires . Is this the way it is down normaly? Not to mention how they perforate the fender with no question asked .

about what? buy the accord latch and wire it to an empty channel on your aftermarket alarm.

you can put the oem 01 accord electric trunk pop solenoid on our cars and it will look stock. you can buy them from http://www.handa-accessories.com/accelect01.html theres no pic of it but its just above the keyless entry remote.

Once you do the install, how do you pop the trunk using the OEM fob?

You can't, the stock Civic keyless entry system has no third channel for trunk release.

There is currently a project going on though (involving my own car) where the keyless entry system was upgraded to the CR-V version with the fob in the key head, and the CR-V does have a third channel. I've already installed the '01 Accord trunk release too, I just need to figure out completion of the circuit.

If/when I am successful, you will read all about it over here:
