Default Simple stuff that need to be fixed on the DD

It's time I fix the annoying "little issues with my DD eg 4 door. Im a really big mitsu guy and haven't really looked at the honda thing so help me out

1st driver side window leans foward & out when I try to roll it up.

2nd where to find a stock antenna?

3rd gas gauge goes up when I fill up the tank but after a half a tank when I take a corner it does whatever it wants. Toasted fuel sending unit?

I have a dx so will the rear speaker panel from an ex fit back there and will I have to run my own wire?

Thanks in advance

X2 ^^^^
Window is off the track, or the screw that holds the front part of the window has loosened and slide down, Take off door panel, and real easy fix.
As for antenna, i would either recommend using an ipod, or playing cds I have replaced a couple antennas on civics and they are not enjoyable. But if you want one, i would look at ebay, prolly get a cheapo one that fits for under $15.00.
And for the fuel gauge, you might have a loose wire, or rusty connection.
The rear speakers are both 6.5s so the panels should match up and so should the connectors as long as they come out of eg.

hondaautomotiveparts.com to find OEM parts. If your asking where is it located in the car, it comes down the drives A pellar over the steering column and into the radio.

Somewhere on this site is a list of all the Honda Dealers that sell OEM part cheap. I find it every now and then.

I would think all 4 door interior panels are the same, like hatches and coupes where the parts are common.

BTW the antenna was a $25.00 option on a 92Si I bought mine less radio but had the dealer install the antenna.

Yea, it wont really hurt anything. Quite possibly your float is worn and can jump up and down easier than normal.

If by door mouldings, you mean the outside trim, theres little tabs inside the door skin, just press the tabs together and pop it out. If you mean the door moulding, refering to the interior door panel, theres some screws on the bottom and side, and once you remove all the screws, carefully take a flathead screwdriver, and pry out at the bottom, and the tabs should pop out.
