Default possible to install ABS?

is it possible for me to install ABS on my 01 accord LX f23Aa1 that did not come factory with it?
whats an estimate for how much it would cost?
anyone have an idea how easy or difficult it would be?
downgrading from a car that did have it i notice how bad it is not having ABS especially that it rains so heavy all the time were i live .

I don't have an estimate on how much it would cost, but I'm sure it would be prohibitive. Especially if you had someone else do it. Probably a better idea would be to sell the one you have and get one that has it from the factory. Just my $.02.

I am sure it is possible. You would have to install a bunch of items.

The wheel sensors ,the abs computer, the abs fuse box, the abs lines and modulator. There are likely other items I left of this list.

I would first find out if the wire harness and fuse box(es) have electrical connectors for these components. If you don't have that wiring, then you will have to wire those items in too.

You may want to look into the cost of an accord with ABS to compare the difference in cost of a new car vs installing ABS.
