    I was looking for a video like this! Thank youuu! So weird though... thats not where the blind spot is. Crazy how that works cause the blind spots between the B pillar and tail light. Youd think the sensor would be around the back of the front door.

    Bc it is not a blind spot detector. More like a "car is beside you" detector. It lights up longer. You are welcome.

    @@stevenwelchtoyota Yes, that did work. The only thing is that it switches the track at random numbers. I have over 100 mixes on a Thumb Drive and if I am playing track #1 and use the arrow to switch to track 2 and so on, it doesn't do that. It will switch to a higher track # like #67. Hitting the arrow again will switch it to track 9 and so on. Not in sequence... At least the arrow works to switch to a different mix. It might take 100 switches to hopefully get to track #2, but it will eventually. Lol...

Honda factory make too short it and it on sharp metal. I soldered longer wires connects to move under metal. It was happening cut wires in IKEA store parking, someone during parking bump my van. Now it works with out any problems.
