Request : Installing Lane Watch on Type R

[wmo168]

Check the door harness if it has all the wire prewire, if so it should be plug and play, if not wires will need to be run. and the signal stack will need to replace.

Hello,

I would like to know if their is a possibility to buy the parts required for the lane watch option and install it on a civic type r ? Do you think that the car would need a reprogramming of the main chip if so or not ?

Thank you for your time and help.

I think it is a possibility, yes. If you go to Honda tech and check out the wiring diagrams, it seems the camera is activated by a single harness which comes out of the radio pin out.

Here are some instructions on how to swap the radio itself, incl the link to Honda tech. http://www.civicx.com/threads/diy-retrofit-hondalink-to-lx-sport.15805/

I think all there is no coding required, as all components are mapped in the radio head unit itself.

The question is if the radio harness are prewire or the wire is missing from radio to the mirror to the signal control I hope all existing wire are there...

That's the question!

Probably you'll have to run the wires.
Sometimes honda uses the same harness on the door, but internally from the door to the radio are different.

I did the power folding mirrors on my GK and my Old GE and I always had to run wires.

I'll do some research and later I'll post here if I find news.

THere is no prewire. It’s no time as bad as my EG was...

Why do you need lane watch with a TR? The only lane you be in is the passing lane with everyone eating your dust!

Apparently New Zealand gets LaneWatch.

Apparently New Zealand gets LaneWatch.

As does Canada.

Saw this video in one of the sellers in Philippines and they installed honda lane watch which is not present on our models

I Tried to contact Kingz Accezz and they don't ship internationally.
I really would like to have at least the harness.

I retrofitted this on my Canadian LX successfully. No programming needed. Plug and Play once you get the wiring part correct.

You should be able to get all the Individual parts you need by getting the part numbers from the Honda Parts list for your car, and for one that has the Camera.

I very much doubt if the Dealer will install this, as it is not a Standard Accessory, but if you purchase Online, you should get the parts for a discount price (as opposed to getting the parts from the dealer, who is not going to install it for you in any case).

I plan to fit a Forward Parking camera to our SI. I plan to get the same camera as the rear camera, then it should work correctly with the Head Unit (Might be flipped left-right but that's OK), and all I will need to do is to insert a relay to switch between the Reverse and Forward camera, with Preference being given to the Reverse camera when the car is put into reverse.

I did this a few month ago for my 87 Maxima, and it worked out very well.

Reverse Camera always works and runs when car is in Reverse.
Then I have a 3 way toggle switch fitted, that is either (Center) NORMAL, (Backwards) Reverse Camera on all the time, or (Forwards) Forward Camera ON all the time (Unless brake is on, in which case, it switches to the Reverse camera automatically) -- all done with Diode and a relay, using the same ONE camera input to the Head Unit (like the Honda Head unit has.. just one Camera Input)

I believe there may be some recent law in the USA about newer cars having to have Reverse cameras. If I don't override the Honda's Reverse Functionality function of the Reverse camera, when the car is in reverse, I then cannot see why I cannot do this modification, and still be LEGAL ...
