power door lock switch and window plastic frame broken - Honda Prelude Forum

belizeprelude · 06-26-2004, 11:52 AM

The plastic frame around the door open handle is cracked on each of my doors, and the driver door unit keeps dislodging. I always pop it back in, and it clicks in fine, but it pops out when i close the door. How can i solve this problem??

They show up on Ebay every now and then, and usually sell for $$ because they always break

San Leandro Honda is a good place to buy from, I ordered several identical parts once and they called to make sure I didn't make an order error, and they're friendly to boot

Someone at NPM told me how these panels break a lot, I need to install my JDM mirrors and I'm worried about breaking one when I remove the door panel.

When I had to remove my door panels to replace the speakers, it took quite a bit of finessing in order to slide that panel in. Just take your time and whatever you do, don't take out your frustrations on it 'cause you'll break it. That's why you stomp on the ground instead

Slow and steady wins the race. I've popped mine in and out frequently for speaker work. Driver's side is good, passenger's side has a hairline crack that I don't remember causing, mighta been there when I bought it.

i don't think i have ever taken my door panel off for speaker work...i just kinda prop it open at the bottom.
