hoetrill Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 got this in a trade.. it was completely legal and i have all the misc. parts that comes with it to prove it wasnt just ripped out of a car.. anyway i went to a local audio shop to find the reverse harness and they told me it would be $90 cause theyd have to order it.. i dont really want to take the gamble seeing as I DONT KNOW if the esn is activated.. help? ideas? money is kind of tight right now and now im riding around with no tunes and a fancy paper weight..

PUNKYOU007 Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 if you got it in a completely legit trade....how come you dont know if the ESN is activated?

Dr. Johnson Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 All you have to do is call eclipse they will contact the registered owner to verify the sale and then you pay $25 to have it registered in your name. Its simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoetrill Posted December 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 thanks for all the fast responses guys.. the guy im dealing with really doesnt seem to know whats going and to be honest neither do it.. it was a craigslist trade, we had never exchanged numbers and he wasnt responding to my emails at the time.. i started to panic thinking i had been sold a bunk deck and the dude was going to dissapear (it happens).. Are the guys over at eclipse really anal about this stuff? or should it go off with out a hitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoetrill Posted December 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 if i wouldve known you can just order the harness for 10 bucks off ebay i wouldve never even made this post.. random car audio shops ++FTL my deck has the ESN feature but it is not activated.. or so i hope.. well see when the harness comes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
