You have to reattach your old radio to your deck via a reverse harness. The interior light as well as keyless entry is in the stock radio.

you can also get an installation harness from cartoys or something. I remeber in my first honda when i pulled the deck out there was a stock one behind it. I was like WTF? If you get the right installation harness though it will work without having the stock deck.

for those wondering, the light and keyless entry are hooked up to a module inside the stock deck. to over ride this, you must have the green plug, plugged into the deck, and have constant power (orange) wire, wired up to the back ot stock deck as well as the ground. simply, you can just tap into the wires and use female conectors to plug into the pins of the stock deck, and use a honda harness to complete the installation of the aftermarket deck, which I installed beind the cup holders on the bottom.

Hope this helps for anyone that comes across this annoyance.
