[blackbeauty2004]

Hi guys ! I have a 04 tsx no/navi, trying to connect my ipod to the car, did a lil research and finally have some clues want i need to do. i pretty much know what to do to install the USASpec PA11-HON2y but have 1 lil question before i actully go and order the adaptor, the question is that the white plug that was behind the storage bin, is it just laying there(unplugged), or it's connected to something and i need to unplug it and connect it to the adaptor? because when i remove the storage bin, all i see is a white plug that's connected to someting else on the top left hand side, and there's no other plug or wire laying there wat so ever, please help!!!!!!

the adapter is a Y-adapter, so you pretty much just connect the harnesses together

I have an 05 and just disconnected the plug on the passgner side and connected the y from the adaptor to it and the other end to the plug I unpluged and then put it all behind the bin and then finished!

I have a lil problem here, I was trying to disconnect the white plug behind the storage bin, I can't not dissconnect it because it's so locked up and stuck so far back. Is there a easier way to dissconnect it? please help!!

Just keep trying theres a clip that you have to press down while pulling it
If you have big hands it might be a bitch for you, Other than that its really push on the clip and pull out.

yeah I used a mirror and then said screw it and just stuck my hand up there and started yanking it

where exactly is the wire that you need to unplug?? becuase i stuck my hand everywhere and couldnt find it...but it was a hot day and got easily frustrated....lol thanx

hmm i have 05' with navi, for me, the plug was on the top, towards the driver side. i remember theres another white plug towards the back on the driver side as well, this one is bigger and is not the right plug, and was a bitch to get out, and when i did i found out it wasnt even the right plug. but yeah, try sticking your hand in, and reach up towards the driver side, it's kind of hard to see

thanx im going to go try it out

You don't need to disconnect anything if you have no NAVI. All you have to do is plug the harness that comes with the part into the AUX port behind the radio. do not disconnect anything. That stuff is for cars with NAVI.

Now this is getting confusing......so is that mean i have to take out the radio too in order to get behind the radio's AUX input? alotta pplz told me just connnect it to the white plug right behind the storage bin using the "y" connector, no one mention anything about AUX input before, please help!!

no your good

I just received the USASpec PA11-HON2y IPOD adaptor and when i took out the storage bin and found no matching plug for the adaptor, there's only 1 white plug to the top driver side and there's like 17 pin in it,remember i DO NOT have NAVI, the adaptor has 14 pin. what should i do now???

[jcbebechulo]

you do not have to take out the radio. Just the the cd tray. when that is removed you will looking right underneath the radio. The plug you just received goes directly in the port that is around the middle back part. put your hand in and you should feel the port. Trust me, do not disconnect anything.

I did and I don't have Navi either and its works great

[blackbeauty2004]
