Hi folks, I have a 2001 cr-v se and am looking for an add-on remote starter that will work happily with the existing remote entry system. Does anyone have any information on this? I'm going to install it myself and want to use the same key fob that came with the V. Is there a place where I can find the wiring diagram for the factory remote entry module? Any info is appreciated. Thanks. |

I just purchased a 2001 CR-V. Has anyone installed a retractable cargo cover by themselves? I'm thinking of attempting this...also is the retractable worth the extra money over the non-retractable cover? |
|
| Recently installed a manual rectractable CRV luggage cover--a piece of cake and it works fine. Personally I can't justify the more deluxe cover. | |

I think it comes down to personal preference. Here's one man's review of the retractable. http://www.ptcruiserusa.com/hondasuv/crvix/interiormenu/cargocover/cargocover_retract.htm |

| i am thinking of getting one my self as well, but the instructions call for the panel removal in the back and cutting holes into it. i am kind of put off by that, but still interested. also the price is a big factor, $140 or so for retractable versus $70 for regular cover. just installed the most important mod on my V, one of the holidays gifts was a "CRVIX" sticker. now it is proudly displayed next to my"WOW" sticker, lol | |

The Canadian version of the 2002 CR-V has an outside air temp readout on the Odometer. The temperature sensor is located inside the front bumper. I live in northern Minnesota and sometimes knowing the outside temperature can be important. Does anyone have any idea whether it would be possible and practical to try to get this feature working on my American V 2002? |
|
| I suspect it would be easier to to install an aftermarket version. I know that it may not have the same integrated look as the OEM temp gauge, but I'd guess it's worth the difference. To install the OEM, you may need to either modify or replace the gauge cluster and run wires through the firewall. Aftermarket devices are designed to make install easier. | |

Being the eternal optomist, I was hoping that the wiring was already in place, and just required the addition of a thermocouple in the bumper or some such easy fix. Happy new year! |

| I ordered a front tower brace for my 2001 CRV. The company charged my credit card but never sent the order. And it is impossible to get hold of him. Maybe he has caller id and for those he chooses to screw over he doesn't answer the phone. I've left messages, faxed, but still no answer, no confirmation, receipt, or UPS tracking #. The only time I talked to him was the day the charge posted to my account and he said that the order had shipped 'yesterday' and that I would get it in 3 days ground UPS. But it never came. I filed with the Better Busines Bureau and disputed with my credit card company. And according to some people on Hondasuv.com he (Jon Mandel aka Manb) has done this before. So do not do business with them!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | |
