The other day a 2003 Honda Accord pulls up to the shop, and the customer wants his factory radio hooked up again.

I go have a look and this is what I see.....The taped radio was fully functional, hell they even used the proper harness

And the best part is the factory radio brain was gone....Kind of an awkward shot from beneath and behind the factory radio area.

So let this be a lesson to all you hack jobbers and not so clean DIY'ers. If you haven't got the skill, or even the integerity to do things right or take it to a professional, don't do it at all.

Ha, that was the easiest $50 I ever made!

Any I'll make another $250 when she brings it back to me to purchase the main board that I kept when I worked on the car!

Only $250? Dealership wants upwards of $1000 for the necessary parts...

The original owner and hack artist was deported, hence this customer wanting the factory radio back.

Check this out:

There is a mistake in the ad, so it might not sell for much.

The title claims Honda Accord but the discription says Honda Oddysey.  Of course you may want to verify it is actually for an Accord, but it looks like it is.
