Default Can I install door trims on my CX?

So my CX came with no door trims (don't know if this is factory standard or not for this model) but anyway I was wondering if it's possible to install door trims on it? The reason I ask is because normally there are clips on these door trims and my doors don't have any holes for the clips to go into so I assume I would have to buy a clip or modify it with double sided tape? Thanks.

These are standard as far as I know. Maybe someone Bondo'd up the mounting points on yours.

Then no. Not unless you want to take some cutting instrument to the car. Or you can use double sided tape or something. Gonna have to get creative if you want these on.

This isn't a CRX forum. Try calling a Honda dealer and inquire about the part you need.

i also have a cx hatch. now what would be easier for the fenders? buying fenders that have side molding trim holes with precut side markers, and filling in the side molding trim holes. or buy fenders with no side molding trim holes and get the side markers cut out?? because i want them very proportional on both sides and in the correct spot as well. what be the best bet?
at pswjdm a pair of fenders with side markers and holes and wiring kit is 240
ebay is 115 a fender with no trim molding holes( pswjdm has holes)
