This was a great help! My Civic's cowl top assembly broke. Because of this video, I was able to identify the part, order it, and then install the new one painlessly. It was a very easy fix! Thanks for this video!

Awesome detailed video of cowl removal!! Thank you so much for taking the time to make it. I was trying to remove the fuel delivery rail and injectors . You have a new subscriber thank you again!
I needed to access the washer line in the cowl as it was leaking washer fluid there. Service manual was more complicated and unclear, nice to find a short simple video to help me fix my problem.
My Haynes and other videos have you taking off the wipers. See you did what I was thinking. Turn on the wipers and then shut the engine off when they are up. Thanks! Very helpful!
I'm almost ready to pull the head on my civic. I wish I had seen this earlier since all data mentions nothing of it, but this will help immensely! Thank you!!!
Does this provide enough room to install mesh over the air intake? Or am I better going at it from inside. Mice keep getting in my car. Thanks Honda for not spending the 13cents to cover that opening into the car.
No, removing these cowl pieces doesn't really give better access to the cabin air-intake. The opening is still quite a ways down in there and it's a tight squeeze since part of the firewall remains in the way along with the wiper motor assembly. Getting hands and tools in there would be a nightmare. Of course, removing the blower motor housing from under the dash doesn't look any more 'fun'. I'll echo Grotek12345's sentiments: thanks Honda not placing a screen over this area and allowing mice to make themselves at home in the vents of my car. Welp, best be on the lookout for Hantavirus symptoms....wah-wah-wah
Say, if I were to re-paint my OEM cowl cover a satin black to refresh the look, how would I remove the washer nozzles and wiper nozzle tubes from the cowling? I haven't had a chance to remove my cowl cover yet.
The plastic part he removed first just looks faded but isn’t broken. Can i get away with taping the windshield etc off and spray painting it black or should i just replace it?
+Brock Barber You really should replace it. If you don't then you could have issues with water getting into the cabin and in between panels. 1aauto.com
+Pinoy Collector Thanks for checking us out! It appears the cowl will differ depending on if it is the coupe or sedan model. Please let us know if you have any further questions, thank you!
