As promised pic's of my work i'll try to explain each step as much as possible......
Ok, to remove these buggers, first when you open the front door you will see at the bottom of the chrome trim a screw, remove the screw, gently pry at the chrome trim where each clip is and the chrome piece will continue to come out till it reacts to the back of the rear door...
this is what it should look like once you remove the first piece...
here is the rear door, you will notice that there is a second piece of chrome, this one is on different you will see 4 screws remove them and easy take piece out because cautious those, there is a white clip that will also hold this on try on to break it...
once removed it will look like this...
This the white clip...
here is my damaged chrome pieces...
Now for all those white clips that are still on the car, the was i got them out without breaking all them is from the position they are on the car, I turned them to face up and down, and pulled at the top of them and they popped out, I only managed to break 3....
Here are the clips all out...
Now with your new chrome pieces, put the clips back into the chrome pieces and line them up with the holes in the car, remember put the back piece on first then the front piece on, it should all clip back in with ease, put your screws in and there you have it finished....

And when I'm done re-doing the mounts, seats, and blower box in the accord maybe I'll take it for one last long drive down there.

I know I was looking for months. Dam, i think in the NS thread I was looking a five months ago. And during that time I looked at a lot! There seems to be a growing trend around these parts....
- F/S: Pre 2000 rusted piece of junk that could break in two at any moment, but has good inspection for 2 years. $3000
- F/S: Any year Honda (insert model here) with 5,000,000 miles on it, engine is still good. No inspection. $3000
- F/S: Pre 2000 Truck (any model/make), for sale $8000.
Sometimes there are sweet deals around and you have to have the cash instantly ready to hop on them. Like someone selling their car b/c they just bought a new one. "I just wanna get rid of it" type of thing. OR a family member you know who is selling their vehicle.
People should be considering the $$$ one has to spend to fix the rust, brake lines, cracked windshield, etc in their asking price too. Like that 92 accord SE in pompquet. That person should be giving that thing away for free!
If ya have $2500 or more to spend, then the deals actually are good.
