A few questions on my SiR??
First off the old couple that owned this car took wonderful care of it. The rims are mint except for one little set of curb scrapes that are virtually unnoticeable unless you look for them. Are these riims worth anything to other Honda owners? One missing item is the stubby roof antenna. Base is there but nothing on it. I am assuming there should be what a hole to screw a male end into or should there be a stud with a female opening on the stubby itself? There is neither, there is a little collar with 4 square indents on it and then what looks like a sheared off peice of aluminum. How do I fix this? Do I need a whole new antenna because radio reception sucks? SRS light also on constantly. I tried the crossing the wires trick that worked on my brothers 03 Civic when I took his seats out to clean but I am getting nowhere on this one. Can't make the light even go out. Fuse box way less accessible than the 03. How can I reset the computer without the fuse box trick? Also radio code, is it a five digit number? There is a number on the back of the owners manual but I want to verify that is probably the radio code in case I have to disconnect battery to fix SRS light. Also I read that their is a TSB concerning SRS light that runs 10 yrs of 150K miles in the US. Does that apply here in Canada as well? I mean it is part of the safety system of the car and this one is bone stock so mods certainly didn't cause it. I really like how this car drives, would have been nice in something other than BILE colour but at least I kinow it will be easy to spot in the parking lot. Lastly should I be concerned about theft? No wheel locks or alarm yet. Attending a college in Hamilton so will be left in parking lot most of the day and outside my home at night. Will Civic thieves really be targeting this type of car?

For real you need an owners manual, it will answer all your questions.

I have the owners manual, do you guys mean the service manual? Enter key?? I will read that part of the manual tomorrow, I was just curious if 5 digit number is the key? So is the antenna an inny or an outty? Where can I find OEM antenna listing to see pic?

My manual says 5 digit code to re-enable radio. Says I should have a card with the serial no. of the unit to get code from dealer. I don't have a card. I do however have a 5 digit code handwritten on the back of the OM. I am guessing this would be the code since no numbers higher than a 6.

What they mean by "enter key" is when your typing. Hit the enter key to move down to the next line and list your questions in point form, one question per line, instead of one big giant run-on paragraph.
Makes it much easier for use to read your questions/posts.
I wouldn't worry too much about it being stolen. That particular generation/model was not very popular, plus the engine is the less-powerful version of the k20. A lot of people didn't like that style/model, but I've heard they can be made to handle extremely well.
