okay....i'm going to buy sedan rear door handles
because they don't have keyholes


which parts would they be?

 
Rep Power: 315

i'm quite sure its part # 23 & 33
but wanted to be sure

I cleared my keyholes a while back but it involved taking the key hole mechanism out, then the same procedure for shaving any hole, weld bondo paint, etc.

Total costed me 300 for everything

 
Rep Power: 315

huh?

i don't want to shave it

just no key hole like in the rear handle of a sedan

DO u think that sedan rear handles are gonna fit in the coupe ? lmao.

with all the custom work its gonna take to cut and make them fit... why not just shave the whole handle?

 
Rep Power: 315

ummm....yes...it's a direct fit if that was sarcasm intended

 
Rep Power: 511

yup, they will fit. i was actually looking at doing the same thing. all you need is keyless entry. thos are the correct part numbers. should be like $30 a handle.

 
Rep Power: 315

but it doesn't come painted

so more money to paint it

And what happens when your remote dies unexpectantly?
Keyless entrys work on batteries they dont die unexpectantly
and what if you unexpectantly lose your keys?
exactly
i like a clean car, but theres no point to somethign liek this...

doesn't the keyless entry thing work with ur car battery? what if ur car battery screws up? I mean...just what if?

 
Rep Power: 0

itd be a good security measure against the loser crooks that like to open up cars with screw drivers...(yeah slim jim will work but at least the crappy theives cant get in).....my last car was broken into twice this way

 
Rep Power: 331

you cant use slim jims on our cars, the security glass sets all the lock mechanism behind the window...so you either break the window, or wedge the door.

and unless he shaves his trunk hole...getting in the car isnt impossible. thats why the folding seats allow entry through the trunk. ive had to do it in the winter time because my doors were frozen shut.

u have to unlock the rear seats from inside the car though. how did u get in from the trunk?

 
Rep Power: 0

leave them unlocked... I have had to crawl through myself before, man that sucked.

 
Rep Power: 0

i shaved my trunk hole too.. if i leave the remote opener inside the car that would be painfull..

i would have to brake a window.

there is a release handle for each part of the rear seats in the trunk, so you dont get locked in. those and the glowing handle on the back of the trunk lid. I think they just made the trunk so if the lever is locked on the floor, then someone could not get in there. also the valet key (the gray one) dosent open the trunk, it just opens the doors and starts it.

and about the handles... you could just get the passenger side, or maybe just the drivers side so if your batts do die you could still get in

they come painted. check honda automotive parts webpage. you have to select 2003 civic ex sedan w/ side air bags. here is the link:

http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/...EAR+DOOR+LOCKS

scroll down to 23 and 33 and you will see that they come painted and are $38 a handle.

 
Rep Power: 331

just like Dr5D said, inside the trunk, inbetween your rear speakers are two handles that you pull that release the seats...if you have no life and read your manual like i did...youd know that

just to comment on shaving door handles. I don't know what the laws are where everyone is from but it is illegal here to shave door handles. I said screw it and shaved the door handles on my 6th gen vic. A couple of months later I went to the track and was told I couldn't even clock my car because now it was a safety violation according to the tracks rules. So just check it out before you shave your handles. I know nobody cares about the law but you may care if you can never clock your car again.
