new car

well i bought a civic yesterday! it's a 2000 4dr EX.

pretty much just a few questions about it.
1. what's the best website for cosmetic mods?
2. does the type r hatch spoiler fit on my rear windshield?
3. my key only starts the car and unlocks the door, doesnt lock the gas/trunk or open the trunk. what should i do?

Re: new car

You can rekey the other locks to work with that key if you only have the one. Car probably got stolen at one point.

Re: new car

Valet should only do doors and ignition, won't do trunk or lock for the trunk + gas by the driver's seat

Re: new car

Ok...
Does the other key do anything different or is it the same as the valet key?

Re: new car

So maybe someone got a spare cut from the valet. You could just get a new lock cylinder for the trunk and either rekey it to work with the valet key or have a separate key for the trunk.
