Just did this. Great video! A couple tips: 1. No need to remove inner door panel 2. must remove the window door trim that is screwed in, as indicated. this would be to the rear of each door (b-pillar in front, c-pillar in rear) 3. to get the old trim off, simply slid the trim back toward where the trim was removed, came off very easily. 4. On the front, re-install the screwed in window trim first, then install belt molding. the belt molding wraps OVER that window trim to seal it 5. on the rear, re-install the screwed in window trim first, but, dont screw it down yet. The belt molding will slid UNDER this trim when installing. thanks FloGarage!!! Great video!!
Hello, I'm trying to get this done on my car and am wondering what you mean by sliding the trim back to where the trim was removed. Can you please elaborate?
I just did it - thanks for the video! I confirm that it can be done without removing the door panel, but I broke one clip on two of the doors, so I have a small piece of plastic somewhere at the bottom of my door. If it rattles, I will remove the door panels to remove them. One more tip: once you remove the screw, the FRONT door trim is removed by sliding it slightly UP (it has tabs pointing down). As someone said, re-install it BEFORE installing the window trim. The BACK door trim is removed by pulling it OUT, prying from the side facing the back of the car (be gentle because the is a small tab at the top, pointing towards the front of the car, and a larger vertical tab at the bottom). I worked on it too hard and broke the part where the screw goes. It's less than $10 but still....
Efectivamente NO es necesario remover la cubierta de la puerta, aun así agradezco mucho la ayuda para efectuar el reemplazo yo mismo, sin herramientas, en 10 minutos y sin gastar tanto en la agencia, que además no tenían citas disponibles. Muy buen video, gracias.
This helps so much! The dealer was gonna charge $150 to do the front and rear and they were going to have my car for 5 hours. This is gonna save me $150 and hours of waiting. Thanks man
An update: I followed everything in the video and successfully replaced the window trim. The difference is amazing. Makes the car look so much newer. Mine was much worse than the one in the video. It took maybe an hour to do all 4 windows. I cleaned everything really well too. Thanks so much for the video.
@@DGMaTRiXzZ God damn that’s unbelievable. Dealerships are such a fucking ripoff. I did mine myself and my car looks great. Just had to spend the money on the parts and all it took was a screwdriver and a letter opener lol. Just got a MAACO paint job too my car looks better than when I got it.
Hey man!! Thanks for the video. Really helpful! Something you might want to add is to slide the clips, on the new parts, to the same spot where the old clips were.
Thank you for posting this video. I bought a used Honda Civic 2013, it comes from an area where there is a lot of sun. I didn't notice until a year that it looks just like this car with all the cracking. I just want to make sure I do this right.
At first I thought FloGarage was being too rough with the interior door panel, and then when I tried it myself I learned you really do have to give it some pretty hard taps to snap into place! One thing that I didn't see others mention is that you can get the rear window panels off easier if you pull up while simultaneously wiggling front to back. Also, against the advice of everyone in the comments suggesting you don't have take the door panel off, I suggest that you do. It's much easier to see what you're doing.
There is no need to remove the inside panel the but it does make it easier as I found one of the trims kind of stubborn and hard to remove if only using my hands. So, I removed it. It wash easy to remove anyway. I do have a tool to hook up the trim but was afraid to slip and damage something. This video helped me a lot. Thanks!
Great video and thanks! Just finished all 4 on my daughter’s civic. The first two driver’s and passenger sides I did not remove the door panels. Lost bits of a couple clips in the door to be lost to all mankind.(even pulled the panels off to see if I could find them and poof, no where to be found) The other side I removed the door panels. This allowed me to see where they were and I stood to the inside of the open door and I pulled up and rolled the trim away from me not breaking any of the blue clips. The other style of clip still broke but didn’t fall down into the door frame. Both rear pieces were more difficult to remove than the fronts.
Just did this today. The video helped but like others commented, you don’t need to remove the door panel. On the front doors you need to remove the black plastic in the B pillar. There is one Philips screw. Once you remove the plastic you can pry the piece off (use your hands or a plastic panel pry bar) the rear takes just a little bit more time but also you need to remove two 2️⃣ plastic pieces, one Philips screw each. The rear also has a white plastic that I was unable to remove so I broke it but the new one comes with one so not a big deal.
Thank you. Very informative. If you do other videos maybe try to not move the camera around so quickly. I was getting motion sickness halfway through. That's just me though. I appreciate the info overall.
I have a 2013 Honda Civic EX and only needed to replace the right rear (Part# 72910-TR0-A01). I got the OEM part online for about $27. The video instructions are nearly perfect. I never would have tried to do this job otherwise. Like Rafael mentioned below, I had to slide one of the clips on the new part. Also, the old part had five blue clips, and the new one had four blue clips and a white one, but that didn't matter. And the vapor shield fell off, but it's not a big deal to get adhesive to reattach it. Thanks FloGarage. Really appreciate it.
Awesome video, and I am glad you showed the "right" way to do it. Most people will probably just end up tearing the trim off, but that is on them. I personally hate hearing that broken clip rattle around the door (which is what happened to me). BTW, this works for the 2012 as well, not just 2013-2015.
@@JuancoPRoFlow Where did you get your parts from? If you bought it online, particularly from Amazon, they are probably fake parts. I got mine from the dealership and they were about $350 but compared to the $50 ones that you can get from Amazon they were night and day. If they are actual Honda parts from an actual dealership. If you got it from them, make sure that it is for the right model - I assume you have a 9th gen, like this one is showing?
@@JuancoPRoFlow As long as you didn't it order it online, it should be a tight fit. I had to tap mine on. NO online parts store has real parts - not even hondapartsnow, or genuinehodaparts. How many clips were pre-attached, and were they blue or were they white?
The rear door outer plastic front trim (remove Philips head screw and slide up). The rear plastic trim, also remove Phillips head screw, (half moon shape piece. Pull out near the outer door seal, peel towards you as there are 2 small plastic hooks that hold that trim piece against the door frame (bottom towards trim piece) and upper window trim (top side of door seal)
Dude, I watched another RU-vidr do the whole job in two minutes using only one hand while holding the camera in the other hand. There is no need to pull the door panel off.
I have a 2012 honda civic lx sedan, when i pulled out the old trim most of the clips broke off and fell inside the door, but furthermore, when i installed the new trim the clips that came with it did not clip onto anything and the trim is very loose, when i raised the windows up the trim kept coming off from parts of it. Any tips before I glue the trim to the door. Thanks
If the old clips break off and fall into the door, are they able to be removed since the door panels are off or do they go down into a place that you can't get to? Don't really care If I can't get them out unless they would rattle in there or something if I couldn't get the clips off and had to break them. That's my only worry really. But Do you remember what you payed for your set of These OEM parts from Honda?
I have a 2012 Honda Civic sedan. I’m having A hard time finding a video for the window trim installment for a 2012 but your 2013 looks just like mine and that is also the same trim I ordered assuming that I ordered the right trim. Do you know for sure if the 2012 is the same process as what you showed in your video?
I've wondered the same thing. I've also got a 2012 Civic sedan LX and I rolled down my passenger window this morning to see to the right for a left turn before defrost fully kicked in, and when I got to work after having rolled the window back up I saw the rubber portion closest to the glass on the outside basically became completely separated and was making a curved arch shape up the glass if looking at it from the front of the car to the back.
I replaced all my trim but I have a gap on the rear windows. Is there anyway to take them off without breaking clips? or should I just buy new clips before attempting to take it off to move it? I am trying to avoid taking off the door.

No need to remove the panels. Angle the top of the old mounding away from the car and they should slide off. New ones slide right in. I broke some clips, so I guess if they rattle around and annoy me I’ll take the panels off to vacuum the pieces up.
Please FlowGarage and guys commenting here. I need to elaborate a little more on a topic that other people commenting before me notice about the process to install the weather strip on the 2012-2015 Civic. Base on what FlowGarage shows up here, to put the new strips you just press it down and that is it! So the more "difficult" part is to remove the old strips but if you can just destroy them pulling it up and them removing the clips remaining, Why I need to remove the door panel? Is there any justification to remove the door panels in this case? Thank you in advance for your answer.
@@amystockett9875 undo the one screw bottom left inside as at 5:31, then from the outside prise the old seal/trim off making sure you replace the new one in the same way, someone suggested just laying the old one down on the path exactly as it came off so it is easy to know which way it goes back in.
Have a 2012 Si coupe, dealers have quoted $300-$500 for this job, bought bet moldings for $27 each from SATX dealer we’ll see how it goes fuck the stealership.
The information given here is O k, which is why he's getting a thumbs up on this one. But overall the information regarding removal and replacement of the outer trim is inaccurate. @lawless_jeeper 's feedback steps were spot on regarding my 2013 Fit Sport. There were no hard tabs as indicated in video.
