DIY: Passenger Door Lock Switch
I finally got sick of not having a passenger door lock switch. What do you think? BTW I have a bunch of install pictures.

I bought the new switch and extra passenger handle from Majestic honda (just get the switch for the driver's side). I Found the plug that goes into the switch from a sixth gen in the junk yard.
First you have to cut the hole for the switch with a Dremel and mount it to the handle using the driver's side as a guide. I used epoxy and built up a base with a wall molly.
A comparison
Next find a plug that will fit. I found one from a wrecked sixth gen which fit perfectly
Next I attached a harness to the plug
From there it's just a matter of running the wires to the driver's side by the foot rest where the wires come out from the driver's door.
Through the door with the existing door harness
Behind the glove box attached to existing wiring
Under the steering column
Check the color of the wires coming off of the driver's side switch and attach where they come into the footwell area.(mine were white/green, white/blue, and black.
Another finished pic

which gave me the drive to get it done nice job but bleh...
i dont like it when passengers play with my car anyways...
also, why dont you modify the switch so thieves cant use a coat hanger to hook the switch? ie. make the switch flat so it cant be hooked.

hi,
I am still surprised you get chrome as stock. Is that standard for 2001-2005?
I tried majestic honda, it does not specify if the handle itself is chrome or not...

i think i need to do this, cause whenever i open the passenger door for my g/f, i have to open my own door with my key or she has to reach all the way across to open my door. it'll be easier for her to just flip up the switch and boila! the doors will be open
