Help! Trying to make the best of a Bad situation.
Recently bought my 1st car, 2003 Accord EX-V6 Coupe(Auto). Looked like a good deal with lots of aftermarket stuff; lower sport suspension, dual exhaust, CAI, removable steering wheel, sway bar, etc. All for $14, 600 Cdn w/ 78,000 KM. Anyway the thing seems OK mechanically but the interior, electronics and audio are messed up. The previous owner put 15 speakers inside the car, some of which were removed leaving large holes in the interior panels in places I no longer want speakers to be. Does anyone know where i can get some replacement panels for a good price??. I have a friend here who is big into tuning, a very nice Civic SIR. He's told me Im looking at likely 5-6 grand to get everyting thats messed up repaired and thats just for the interior stuff. I need to get my head examined for buying this car I think but I always wanted a Honda and Im glad to be part of this forum. Thanks for any help you can give and sorry this is so long.

What this guy said. You should be able to find all your door panels and stuff at the junk yard for a decent price. Just call up the junk yards in your area and see if they have any Accords that year. You should be able to interchange the panels from 03-06, I think, anybody correct me if I'm wrong. Just look around, you'll find something.

Thanks for the replies, Im looking all over the place for these panels. I think my friend was refering to the new speakers, wiring and the labour its gonna take to figure out what the hell the other guy did, when he came up with that number( the stereo screeches like a banshee when the headlights are turned on, didn't do this when I origanilly bought it) well at the end, if there is an end, I guess Ill know alot more about interiors and audio systems anyway.
