it's not the cables that were messed up...the battery i was swapping in had the terminals on the opposite side of the stock battery, i didn't notice until it was too late...but all it did was blow my battery fuse, it's all good now...i think it may have blown my radio fuse cuz that's not working either but i dunno

Damn.........hopefully you didnt fry your alternator.
I would check the fuses in the fuse box.
Im sure the genius @ honda came up with a contingency plan if this were to happen.

Maybe theres like a main fuse or something tha tblew

Based on my previous experiences with this problem, You probably fried every last control module in that vehicle. Yes it's going to get expensive, and no, warranty will not cover it.

Quit beating him up, he knows he's messed up already.
you probably blew the "main" fuse. It's a screw in type 40 or 50 amp in the underhood fuse box. You can see if the strip is blown when you look at it.

all it was is the 100amp battery fuse that blew, that's what fuses do, they blow before anything gets hurt...duh...7.50, everything's fine

Nice. But the point is that I won first place in a spelling bee in 4th grade, so...
