What is wrong using remove you got with garage door opener????
I refuse to rely on internet to control my devices, but that is just me...

Somebody on this forum found a neat place where to attach opener so you should apply KISS rule...

 

I could try it, but to be honest, using the opener push button remote works great for me. If you really want to use MyQ, install it on your phone and control the door from there. I am guessing that Honda is running a "fork" of Android and that could be a problem, although you do have access to Google Play store so that would imply that all (most?) apps should work. (I have an Android phone)

 

Since you already have the car on order why don't you just try it when it arrives and if it doesn't work, it doesn't work and if it works, yippe.

Stop being a lazy Gen Z'er and just use the clicker that came with your garage door.

 

Thanks for the responses (even the snarky ones). Using the original garage door remote is simple and it works; I was just curious to see if anyone had actually tried to use MyQ in this car since Honda and Chamberlain are saying two different things. No big deal and no need to be as ass.

 

MyQ/Chamberlain is known to be a POS company that cuts features and adds new subscription services to string you on. I wouldn't rely on them to provide any service going forward. Just be glad you can still open your garage with the clicker without it being linked directly to your credit card 😉

 

On the overhead panel between the mirror and the switches there is a flat surface to which I placed my garage door remote using double-back Gorilla tape. It has held for the past three weeks without any signs of letting loose. It's virtually un-noticeable, you have to purposely look there to see it. Practically as good as having the built in HomeLink buttons.

 

So why did Honda delete the Home Link ? It definitely was cool and a touch of luxury. XM another delete. All the car needed was memory seats to be complete.

 

We just got a Chanberlain installed and it pairs fine with my 2022 sport touring mirror controls. Can’t speak to the newer model

 

I believe we're talking about the 2025 hybrid sport touring. For some reason Honda decided to eliminate Homelink, it's not even an option. This left me disappointed but it was not a deal breaker.

 

Thanks again for the helpful responses. The Chamberlain MyQ problem appears to be unique to the 2025 Civic Hybrid Sport Touring model. Other than using the original push button remote (which is perfectly OK), I prefer HomeLink to MyQ for the reasons someone stated above. Unless Honda or someone comes out with a replacement rearview mirror with HomeLink, Honda is promoting MyQ for this Civic model and Chamberlain says MyQ does not support this Civic model. Over time, someone will figure this out. The original push button remote is a perfectly good solution.

 

Does the mirror not have the home link buttons at all or Honda just say they won’t pair with that particular opener?

When they installed our door they said there was CarPlay functionality with the app if you want to try that workaround. I can’t confirm

 

The mirror on the 2025 Civic hybrid Sport Touring sedan does not have the HomeLink buttons, and so far, there is no optional replacement rearview mirror with HomeLink buttons. Honda says MyQ is supported on this 2025 Civic model, but Chamberlain (MyQ) says no. Thus, this thread to see if anyone has tried MyQ on this specific Civic model.

 

What about the 2024 Honda home link mirror ? Seems like that should work.

 

I tried. In the Hondalink under Manage Features the "myQ Connected Garage" selection is not there. It was when I tried it with my 2022 Sport Touring Hatchback.

I just put the original clicker on the visor.

 

it's a bummer that there's no HomeLink option for the 2025 Civic Hybrid Sport Touring. Since Chamberlain and Honda are giving mixed signals, I'd say stick with the original remote for now. You could always try mounting it with tape on the dash or visor for easy access. If MyQ support ever becomes available, it should be a quick update, but for now, the clicker works just fine. You can also take advice from reputed local professional Garage door experts.

 

Double-back Gorilla Tape on the flat triangular part of the overhead console just aft of the mirror. Perfect fit, you don't even see it. Mine has held there for over a month now.

 

Why don't you provide some pictures, please?

 

I looked under the Google Play Store as well. No luck

 

If you really want an OEM Homelink, you can use the Homelink mirror meant for the Accord.

Plug and Play Homelink Mirror for FL5 -- 1 Hr Install

UPDATED WITH INSTALL: Sorry guys for the delay... was not feeling too well over the past few weeks. Install was rather easy and the instructions make it look harder than it was, literally took 1hr to do from start to finish. Anyways on with the install pictures:drive...

Part numbers:
Harness 08V03-30A-100
Homelink Mirror 08V03-3A0-100

I did this install on my '24 Sport hatch. I doubt Honda changed the mirror mounting points for the '25 models.

Here's a how-to video for the install. It's an Integra, but hey, it's the same car.

 

Sick. Thanks for this. I always intend to do writeups or install videos but abandon out of pure selfishness as it’s hard enough to do stuff without holding a camera. You’re one of the good ones. Cheers!

 

Wow, that was an extremely well done how-to video.

 

That's a lot of work for what is essentially a relocated button 🤣

 

 

I took your idea and ran with it but I used velcro instead of 2-sided tape. Primo!

 

Yes I was going to mention that because I have more than one car but only one remote and when I tried to pull it down the other day I couldn't get it to budge! I'm going to have to work on getting it loose and go with the Velcro. The only challenge is getting whatever adhesive is used to stick to the plastic.

Why don't you just get another remote? Even Velcro has its own lifespan...

 

I had the MyQ for about 6 months and its a POS. Constant error messages. I didn't want to mess with a Homelink mirror install, so I bought the Meross MSG100. It's been flawless for my first 6 months. The MyQ went to the trash. Worth a look for anyone.

 

I started this discussion and would like to summarize my findings. I took delivery of my 2025 Civic Hybrid Sport Touring Sedan a little over 2 weeks ago. I was lucky in that my car is not subject to any recalls at this time including the steering gearbox. So far everything is great. Sure I wish it had cooling front seats and rear vents and charging outlets, but the car works well for me as I am usually the only passenger in the car. With regard to a garage door opener, I found the myQ app within HondaLink, but I decided not to use it for the reasons several of you pointed out. The original remote that works with the garage door works fine, but I decided to go with the Meross MSG100 which someone in this thread recommended. It was only $25 on Amazon and was very easy to install. It works with Alexa and Google as well as Siri if you pay a little more for the Apple HomeKit version. So far, the Meross MSG100 is working perfectly, and all I have to do is say "Alexa (or Google) open the garage door" or "Alexa (or Google) close the garage door". Easy peasy. Thanks to all for their help!

 

I'm curious if the built in myq will have the closing delay you get when you close your garage door with the myq app. I have alarm.com and my garage door linked through that - and also exposed to homekit with homebridge. I can open/close it from my Apple Carplay dash, but there's a 10ish second safety delay where the beeper and light goes off when closing. Can't seem to by pass it.

Maybe one day I'll dig into the center console and repurpose the blank slot where the auto engine start stop button normally is and convert it to the garage door remote!

 

Here's my $8 solution

https://www.civic11forum.com/threads/simple-hidden-garage-door-button.7965/

 

Mounted my existing remote behind the mirror with two pieces of velcro. Its out of the way. The Honda solution wont work unless I update my Q compatible opener. Actually replacing Homelink with this bozo solution was a mistake on their part.

 

I currently have my remote behind mirror as well but I like the stealth switch remedy for when you may leave the car parked outside the garage when your not home. I ordered two of them just in case I decide to maybe add fog lights at some point down the line.
