Avoid This Product - Trim

GARBAGE. will return as soon as possible. Does not fit as OEM. There will be gaps. I think it's too thick and doesn't fit properly. Then the screw cap doesn't fit at all, it falls out. The wire clip is too small so you can hardly attach it. Just save your time and buy from the dealer.

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • Upgrades

Looks good but creaks when opening

Works as expected, looks factory but creaks loudly when opening because the spring is much wider than the post it wraps around the back half of the handle. I explained it to WD-40 and the noise was gone for an hour and then came back. I may need to use a stronger lube to make it work properly.

Pros
  • GOLS Certificate
Cons
  • Damaged

Almost perfect replacement for

Product quality was great, installation was easy, fit was perfect. The only (very, very small) remark is the shine of the black plastic. The original Honda black plastic is slightly darker than the stock part. When installed you can't see any difference, I only noticed it when I held it next to the original. I guess most people don't care, but there's always one.

Pros
  • Great Construction
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Fits perfect and saved me $165

So glad to find this! My grip broke last week and Honda charged $175 to fix it. HA! I watched some videos on YouTube and changed it myself. Fits perfectly and the grip comes back better than the one I had before (not sure if the old owner replaced it). Will definitely buy again if needed. Bonus: since I was checking multiple listings, I accidentally ordered the wrong site. I went to return and the return was issued without returning the goods!

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Quality

Fits and works perfectly!

What don't you like? Easy to assemble and indistinguishable from the original. Suggestion: After connecting the cable, trying to insert the bezel into the matching hole doesn't work. Once the tabs on the back edge fit into the hole (slide the back edge of the bezel into the hole, front to back, hit the front edge of the bezel until the latches snap and it snaps snugly into the walls of the Attach the 2nd Reattach the original screws and snap the screw cover into place.

Pros
  • Doping ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Not sure

Not ideal for 2003 EXL Accord Sedan

The part looks almost identical to the original part (same color black plastic and chrome handle). to the standard part, but this is not a problem as it snaps in easily and holds the cable securely. The only problem I had was that the black plastic part of the replacement didn't fit snugly on the door. It differs from the OEM by about 1-2 mm shifted back, which caused the plastic to burst on the back. Luckily I was able to fix the old part by supergluing the thin metal sleeve that was comingโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Tough finish
Cons
  • I won't say anything

it *fits* a 2005 Honda Accord EX 4 cylinder

The information on this item on Revain indicates that it will not fit the 2005 Honda Accord EX 4cyl, but it will. I checked the Dorman website before purchasing it and confirmed it would fit. I just installed it. It's not as well made as the original pen that came with the machine, but it's pretty good and reasonably priced. The screw holding the metal bracket does not have washers like the OEM. The spring on the handle is not as thick as the original. But it fits well; looks good; worksโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • The list goes on.

This item fitted my 2003 Honda Accord LX perfectly.

This item fits my 2003 Honda Accord LX perfectly. Upside down compared to the OEM version in my car so I replaced the old one. Look at the new part and you can see where you use a small flat blade screwdriver to push it up to the clip and then slide it back so you can then pry the old one out to manipulate. Judging by the photo of the product, it is located closer to the front of the car. Using a large flathead screwdriver, push the nylon wire guide into the metal guide until you hear a clickโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
