That huge thread on it is a big help. The screen and the radio comes out relatively easily. Toughest part was removing the passenger side panel and the glove box.

New struts installed (KYB gas-a-just) on the front after the dealership mentioned they were leaking slightly

Ride feels exactly the same on my test drive. I will give it more time and make a formal post on my experience.


Initial impressions are very good, high quality parts, and look identical to the OEM ones.

How did you take that trunk light cover out? I looked at mines today.

i just applied pressure to one size and it just popped out. I think there’s also a groove where you can stick a tiny flathead screwdriver if you need to...

I see people do fun things while I do labor intensity things. lol. I replaced my dashboard. All this because of a crack in the dash that the dealer won't fix under the bulletin. A good 4-hour job.

I only saw to notches in the front of the lamp cover and there's one in the back. There are no notches are on the sides.

Anyone have a diagram how to remove it without breaking it. This doesn't seem that simple as the Honda vehicles are.

From another thread:
"Grab the trunk light lens with fingers and give it a nice tug and it should come right out:"

Looks like someone stole your car and stripped it for parts.

Hahaha. I did show this to a bunch of my friends. They were all freaking out and calling me. On the bright side, I did install new LED reversing blubs after I put my dash together.
