I have a 91 Si and wanted to take out the door garnish the black plastic piece on the outside on the side of the window, but cant figure out how. I searched only found stuff about crx. Anybody know how?

Edit: figured it out. Here is what I did if anybody else ever wonders.
1. took off the mirror
2. took out the bolt that hols the door sill
3. slid the sill as much forward as I could and pryed off the rear clip on the sill. Had to do this because part of the garnish sticks out and goes under the door sill.
4. jammed a flat head on top of the door and the garnish and pryed that ish off. Only broke one clip the other two are still intact and perfectly fine.

That is a good write up but I am referring to thick black ones that are on the side not underneath the window.

 

My car is stored for the winter so this is just from memory -- someone correct me if I'm wrong. When you open the door, there should be three screws visible holding it on. After you remove these, they should come off pretty easily.

 

Yes there are three screws on the inside, but there are also clips too
Now my friend called Honda and for some reason the only way to take it off is to break the clips! u can buy the clips from Honda and once u set them in place the only way to get them back off is to just pull it off, which will break the clips,
Shitty design i know!




Please let me know if i am wrong.

 

Thanks for the call to Honda. The thing that I am most confused is that people keep saying that there are bolts on the inside but when I open the door there are no bolts, i usually read on the forum that on crx's. There are only two bolts that hold the seat belt.
