which part of the car is referred to rocker panel?

Edit: Is it referring to the quarter panel or the side skirt?

If you are referring to the side skirt, then the hatchback one is the same as the coupe one.

if you are referring to the quarter panel, then you need to cut the hatchback one in and weld it on to the coupe one because most part of the hatchback quarter panel is the same as coupe one.

The 97 civic sedan have totally different quarter panel and side skirt.

Hope this help.

that's funny.


the hatchback and coupe rocker panel moldings are the same. you can buy the sedan skirts and cut them if you really want to.

I think he means the moulding or the actual rocker panel. Either way, no, the sedan is different.

hatchback one is the same, the sedan one has the same length, however the side goes out differently + u need to cut the rear top part of the side skirt so it fits.
