Default Y harness - two radios

I am looking for a "Y" harness in order to use two radios, the stock one for my key less entry, and my after market deck for cd's and my ipod. Where can i buy a "Y" harness for my car? I have found a couple that have a plug on one end and a bunch of wires on the other, but i would like one with two plugs. Any help is appreciated. Its a 1997 coupe HX if that matters.

i dont think you can buy one. but what you can do is splice in to each one of the wires...power. memory. ground. that will start it up and then from there slice the speakers in and that way you can run the two you will just have to turn one off whire you have the other playing.

i dont see what teh keyless has to do with any of that

I got my Y harness from a local stereo shop in town. It was a special order took a few days to get, cost about 20 bucks.

I went to best buy and circuit city and they had no clue what i was talking about. I had them show me all their harnesses for my car with no luck.

Heres what mines looks like

96-98 civic have the keyless entry built into the radio. Hence you remove stock radio the keyless does not work.
