Know anything about voice recognition nav system? See my post from yesterday regarding possibility of installation of another Navi-Voice button.

I have a 2005 Odyssey with res & nav. I was wondering if there is any way to connect a Sirius reciever to the back of the radio? I really dont like the fm transmitter option in my area. The alternative would be to run an aux cable from the sirius unit back to the rear seat aux input. I'd rather not go that route but not too many options here! Thanks for any advice you can give.

It would be best if you could start threads for each of your problems, because people who may know how to solve them may not look in this thread.

B.C. - I would look at crutchfield for information on particular products, however, Polk and Alpine have very good reputations for being very good quality. I would say the best sound would come from a high quality HU with DVD-A, which one depends on what features you need, component speaker systems for the 4 corners, a center speaker up front, and a decently powerful sub/amp setup. What is more important to you, chrisp, accurate sound, or powerful feel it from a mile away bass?

mdkeeper - here is a link to a DIY on 8thcivic for XM -> Sirius for Navi Civics, with the exception of taking the dash panels off the process should be pretty similar.

DIY: XM -> SIRIUS NO 56K! - 8th Generation Honda Civic Forum

rightguard43 - I would try the fuse box, remember to check both the one in the car and under the hood, a lot of people forget about the one under the hood.

I got a JVC stereo and I'm having issues finding out where to put the wires in! they are green and supposed to run to the rear left or right Now I only have wires connected to one side and have to link it just to make it work. The green wires are just hanging! Where do they go?

Okay, so I currently have a single 12" pioneer sub and an amp, 600W Max (I think). I'm looking to upgrade to triple audobahn subs, with a combined 1200 Watts.

Firstly, is this a good move? Secondly, will I need to alter my electrical wiring to accomodate for more power? Thirdly, my current amp is aPioneer GMX952 (click to see). Now I'm not sure if I'm reading this correctly, but I believe it can distribute 200W of power to each sub when connected to two subs, and mine says it's 2-channel bridgable or something....so if I have three speakers, what should I do?

And FINALLY, with the bigger stereo system, should I get any sort of supplimentary power source, or is this system not 'powerful' enough to consume that much energy?(currently I'm running on a single car battery for everything).

Thanks!
