Soon after I got my Civic hybrid I wanted an alarm system, but didn't need or desire all the frilly stuff the guys at BestBuy wanted to push. After doing a little research I found out that my car was already wired for an alarm, I just needed the module! Apparently all Civic hybrids have this wiring harness to the left of the steering column. If you go looking for it, look carefully as it's hard to find and being held up with blue tape. I made a quick call to Honda and found out the part I needed was $185, still less than the other alarms. Bless this wonderful thing called the internet, cuz I found it for $140, then $112, and finally $80.88 from collegehillshonda.com. In case your looking, it's Honda part number 08E50-S5D-100.
The total install from start to finish took about an hour and was REALLY simple to do. Near plug and play.
Just wanted to let everyone know.
