Hey everyone, I just got my E last Sunday and immediately missed my HomeLink/compass Mirror I had in my Civic. Unfortunately the E uses a proprietary mirror mount so I could not keep the mirror and use it in this car.

I went to eBay and found a $25 HomeLink transmitter and installed it here.




I planned on making the install much cleaner but the plastic on that part of the dash is too thick for this piece to snap on (the transmitter and face are supposed to sandwich the surface its mounted to (fabric in the headliner is where its intended for.)
I had to cut the full oval hole in the dash to get it to sit there so there is a little gap at the top and i scratched the plastic to the right, other than that it works great.

Well done. Interesting place for it. How is the range?

Here is a link to other installs:

I was originally going to do it like this

but I thought there would be clearance issues and didn't want to take the board out of the plastic box.

I get the reception I need in my mount location, I have not tested the distance from the full length of my drive yet.
