We install a lot of batteries, someone just took one out of their '01 Honda and erased everything, etc., big hassle, Honda dealership said we had to get a number off the radio (R&R radio to get it?), get the VIN, AND a number off the block, and call it in to them. Sounds like b.s. to me (I mean what a huge hassle) but:
- Is all that really necessary (numbers, VIN, etc.)?
- Would the whole problem have been prevented by plugging one of those code savers into the lighter?
- Will one of those pretty much service every vehicle?
- Where can you buy one?
