hi guys!

is there any DIY over here on how to remove the side lining on 02 civic coupe?

this is the part that i'm talking about.....



i need to remove this in order for the "dent wizard" guy to access the dent on the side of the car....

this guy that we (local peep) know is a professional....working off-time to help friends around...

he said, there's another way.........which is to drill a hole in the wheel wells....and then, close it with epoxy and rubber grommet....he said, some people prefer one way rather than the other....

which one should i use?

Yeah you pop out the grey piece going up the side of the back window. Just pull it off, its held in by tabs. Then look down at the handle, pop out the little square piece and un-do that screw. and then on the back part, pop out that tab. (#10 in pic). Then just take the whole thing and pull up and out, you may have to work it a little, but it just pops out. Don't be afraid, you may have to pull kinda hard to pop it loose. Oh yeah, you have to take out the back seats first though. Fold the seats down and between them is a bracket covered by a piece of carpet held down my velcro. Undo that and the seats come right out. Will not take you longer than 5 mins. Check this out...

man all you have to do is pull out and pop every insert and unscrew every part...then slowly pull out there are these click parts there that go into the frame...

to me thats so fun to do...i completely took apart the whole interior of a 94 civic...took me sometime but after you take it apart it looks so simple of a design
