The following is a write up post installation of my Keyless Trunk/Boot Opener modification. This modification is on the basis of a Right Hand Drive 97-01 BB6 VTi-R Prelude. The goal of this modification is to make the trunk/boot be able to be opened remotely with the factory security unit.

Tools:

• 10mm Socket
• Ratchet
• Multi-meter (Optional, but recommended)
• Tape/Heat shrink
• Wire

Parts Needed:

• Factory Honda Security Unit
  • Part Number: 08E51-S84-1M0-02
  • You can identify your unit by the label on the front.
• Accord 1998-2002 Rear Trunk/Boot Latch
  • Part Number: 74851-S84-A41
• SPST Normally open relay.
