Default CRX Headlight Buzzer? EBay? Anyone?

The other day I was in the book store and left my lights on for like an hour! Does anyone have experience with headlight buzzer warning in a crx? Anyone got one from Ebay?

Why not make your own? Just get a buzzer from radio shack, and wire it in.

well that buzzer website is retarded...After a while the springs that hold in your fuses will become useless and your fuse will fall out so instead of putting the wire in with the fuse, figue out which of those male connectors at the top of your fuse box is what and wire it correctly

The site is not retarded. As long as I have been around cars, I have never seen a fuse spring become useless, causing the fuse to fall out.

ive seen it happen but only when i big peice of wire was used and shoved in with a fuse blade. Had to stuff a peice of extra wire ot hold the fuse in place couldnt figure why a fuel pump wasnt working the fuse was loose

You could get one of the fuses with a power tap on it.

Happened to me. My car came with a buzzer someone had installed with a spade style tap on one of the fuses(headlights), making it wider then a stock fuse blade. After a couple years, the buzzer quit working right.
I yanked it all out. But the standard fuse no longer fit the slot...it was too skinny and didn't make good contact. Myheadlights didn't work anymore without the spade. 6 months go by, it's fine. One day, no lights. The fuse terminals are so stretched that not even the spade can maintain contact anymore...had to get a new fuse box.

i just bought one off ebay and installed it in my car today, took 2 min to put in. i'm gonna get the one for my beater at radio shack. honestly it's nothing more than a 2 wire beeper from radioshack w/ 2 female spade clips, 1 on each wire, then install is really easy, don't mess w/ the fuses..... there's 2 accessory ports allready on the fuse box that you can hook it to. here's how to find them

take off fuse panel like you were going to replace a fuse
if you were kneeling outside the car w/ your head turned left and up to look at the fuse box (head under steering wheel looking left to see fuse box)
you'll see the fuse box.... now then if you look at the far left side of the fuse box (side closest to dash/coin box/ side not closest to floor) you'll see 2 square holes w/ spade connectors inside them, connect your femal spade connectors allready wired to your beeper to these (WITH THE LIGHTS OFF) turn lights on if it doesn't work switch the wires... maybe i'll be nice and take a pic... really easy... don't get left w/ dead batt....
