Thank you for the exceptionally clear and professional tutorial! Honda just quoted me $500 to change these out. I did it for less than $50 thanks to you!
Great tutorial. Installed mines today. I have a 2010 Honda Accord LX. Only needed to remove the 3 (8mm) nuts to remove the exterior mirrors. The nut you mentioned is a pain to remove, can be easily accessed by removing just the slightest of the plastic trim from the interior door just forward of where the nut is located. Makes access to nut super easy. Thanks for the video.
thanks for sharing this how to. this is what makes youtube so great - people all across the world sharing their knowledge. Great stuff. You have definitely inspired me to do this myself.
Thank you for this! This was well explained and the demonstration was very clear. Also, thank you for the tip to use a magnet so that nut doesn't fall in the door. I have my parts ordered now and will be using this as my guide!
Thanks a lot for the video. I did break some plastic tabs but I don't care if they fall to the bottom of the door. Also, that one nut on the mirror is rather difficult but I wedged the interior panel open from the door to get more room on installing the nut.
Good job, thanks for the video. I just replaced my sons 2011 v6 today. He bought it used and it was a Az car for most of its life and extreme heat ate up the weather stripping. Thanks again. It went smoothly thanks to your video.
Thank you for this video. My 2010 is in worse shape than yours (14 years old at this point) and was considering trying this but wasn't sure the difficulty of it. Your detailed explanation and step by step video were exceedingly helpful. I am ordering the molding through your link now.
I just did mine on an 09' Accord today thanks to your tutorial and video🙏 thanks so much. (Same under $45 off Amazon) Back windows are tough and mine doesn't sit perfect on one side in the back, but it's not noticable.
For the "painful" nut, I first stuffed an old sock under it in case I dropped it, then took a piece of wire coat hanger bent into an L and slid the nut on the short part, pushed it to the bolt, and simply turned the nut with my finger to get it threaded.
The service manual says to slide the clips forward to release them, but this works just fine. Which is just as well, since at least one clip on the coupe is inaccessible with the window in any position, even with the door panel removed.
Great video thanks for making it look easy is it any harder on a coupe planning on buying one and the passenger side is falling apart any link for coupe mouldings would be helpful mostly saw mldgs for sedans thanks
@Dartoasis hello unfortunately no the sedan doesn't fit the coupes I ended up buying a 2015 Honda coupe exl and got a great deal on it love this car getting 37mpg to 40 mpg in economy mode in the country sorry wish I had better news
Thank you for the video it was very helpful iam trying to find a video on how to remove the one on top of the door but so far I have found nothing I heard the crome peace on the rear door at the bottom the wide peace was very difficult to remove without damaging it that why I haven't attempted it plus I can't find the new replacement for the top of the doors 👍🏻
Does this do the rear little windows as well? It wasn't clear in the video. All my felt strips are bending and peeling up, including the little rear ones. It doesn't show on the link the separation between the windows that roll down in the rear and the felt that is in the stationary rear windows.
Yes it's only 2 strips for each side and it goes all the way under the small back stationary window as well. You can tell at 6:50 in the video. I show it goes all the way under that window that I believe you are referring to. Best of luck to ya!
I did mine today. I had to use the 8mm wrench to loosen the lower nut but could not get any socket or anything on it to put it back on. Even with a magnet. You don't see it in your video but there is a piece that stick out from the molding around the door right in the way of that nut. Made it impossible to put the nut back on with fingers. Even with a magnet I couldn't get it threaded. One nut fell down in the door on the driver side. I still have it for the passenger side but the only thing I may be able to use is tweezers to try to put it back. It was so frustrating I gave up. I hope the 2 of 3 nuts holding the mirror on will suffice.
It's been a while, but I thought I mentioned that nut specifically and mentioned the magnet was under it in case it fell and rag under it to help in case. Yeah, that one is hard for sure, but as shown not impossible...
Man my window trim has been flapping around for months. Very annoying. I finally tried to look it up on TH-cam and found your video. Looks like you have a EX, I have a LX non chrome. I wonder if the trim is interchangeable.
As far as I know they are interchangeable as long as you do have the 4 door. I bought mine based on Accord 8th gen. At least I did not see a variant for EX vs. LX. The ones I ordered looked identical to mine so I did not even think about that honestly.
I shared a link in the video description for the strips I used on mine. I was thinking all 8th Gen 4 door Accords would be the same, but double check that they list your vehicle in the Amazon description. I only own a 2010 4 door to say for sure. Let me know if the link is no longer good.
I believe they are different. I would double check that your model/style is listed as correct before ordering. I only ordered for my model so I cannot say for certain.
@Dartoasis, The more I look I see some for the Civic coupe, but not any for the Accord coupe. That is so strange. It seems you may have to resort to the dealership for these if no aftermarket ones are available. So weird to me.
So annoyed the left side fit but the right side didn’t so lesson learned not too cheap out on window trim moldings, sadly have to spend $300 at the dealership they’re so expensive
After watching the video, suppose I replaced the part in the past and did not marked the clip positions from the original ones I removed cause i didn’t know . Is there a method to ensure correct positioning, or does it not matter since aftermarket position clips are already set? Cause I notice the clips are in the ball park from the one you’re removing. Thanks once again
Without removing the door panel I cannot say for sure that it doesn't matter. It could possibly be somewhere along the door that they need to avoid maybe. I simply installed in the ballpark and had no issues anywhere that I installed them and no clips hit any part of the interior or affect the window in any way. Hope it helps!
@@Enigmaafk I actually did move a few of them to align close to the originals, but it did not seem to matter as long as they were close. Some were already in about the same spot.
excellent video. however the pry tool method didn't work for me. I just used my hands and broke it out in one fell swoop. Also I had to remove the top door molding/plastic strip on the top/inside of the window to get to that 3rd bolt. wasn't hard
The clips will break easily for sure. I simply tried not to break them if possible in case of issues later with the pieces getting into a window track or something, but some are bound to pop. Hopefully all is well. Thanks for your comment!
@@ThriftyToolShed believe it or not only one broke. I think I may have been using a cheap pry tool. it was not pulling the trim off. I did try exactly what you suggested
I have not done the inner felts myself. It seems these don't give as much issue being out of the elements typically. I don't see much information on them either.
I don't usually comment but this is an excellent, thorough, well explained, practical explanation
Thank you for your kind comment!
I absolutely agree, huge help removing the guesswork from those clips!
Agreed well done sir.
Totally agree!!!!! Very well done! Thank you!
It did on mine, just be aware that a leak from the top door seal can also leak around and show up in the same areas at times.
Thank you for the exceptionally clear and professional tutorial! Honda just quoted me $500 to change these out. I did it for less than $50 thanks to you!
I paid 29$ for a set on eBay, and used this video to install. Very easy to understand and organized video, thank you!

Best description on install hands down.
Wow. Super instructions and professional. This video reduced my anxiety for a DIY project. Thanks

I don't normally comment but this was a great explanation. I did this today and it was moderate difficulty thanks to this video. Saved a lot of money.
I love ❤how much effort and clear tutorial you have done from beginning to end
Thanks for your kind comment!
Very helpful tutorial for my 2012 Honda Accord. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much! You did a great job explaining how to install them 👏 😊

Thank you for the guide! It was really easy changing out the weather strip with your instructional video.
Great video. I appreciate the help. I was scared to do this but now I'll take care of it this weekend
Awesome video! Very detailed, and I appreciated the step by step explanation
Thanks very much. Your video saved me a bundle compared to having Honda or a body shop door.
Excellent video. I just purchased these based on your video. Thank you
I just did mine on an 09' Accord today thanks to your tutorial and video🙏 thanks so much. (Same under $45 off Amazon)
Back windows are tough and mine doesn't sit perfect on one side in the back, but it's not noticable.
I’m having the same issue only did the passenger side for now but the rear does not wanna sit right
Thanks a lot after I watched your videos today I replace them
Short, accurate, to the point!!! Fantastic video.
Thanks so much for your kind comment!
really excellent video! It's criminal that you must replace the entire molding piece and can't just replace the rubber piece that is worn!
For the "painful" nut, I first stuffed an old sock under it in case I dropped it, then took a piece of wire coat hanger bent into an L and slid the nut on the short part, pushed it to the bolt, and simply turned the nut with my finger to get it threaded.
Great video, very thorough.
Thank you very much
Great video … I’m about to do this myself today haha
Thank you so much for this very informative guide.
Extremely helpful video! Thank you ✨
Going to try this myself. Thanks for the thorough video! Xoxo

I will be looking at the video when I replace mine.
Thank you for the clear and complete instructions.
Very well explained thank you I should be able to change mine on my own
Excellent video, this should work perfectly on my 2010 Acura TL.
Great video, thanks for your awesome explanation.

Thanks for this great instructional video! Has anyone found a vendor that only sells a pair for a couple with only two doors?
Thank you for making this video!
Excellent, very helpful. Thank you.
Was looking for a crv 2017 video but this should help thanks
thanks so much!! Fantastic tutorial great job
Anyone know what the Orange pry tool was used to remove the old molding?
I have a link to a very similar pry tool kit in the video description.
Your good at explaining materials... I appreciate that sir
Thanks for your kind comment!
Thank you so much, you made it look easy.
It was much easier than I originally expected it to be. Thanks for your kind comment!
Will these fit the 2009-2014 Acura TL model? I ask because that car is based off of this model Honda Accord.
Great video, thanks
Thanks for the detailed tutorial. Did you notice less air noise at highway speeds? I'm hoping these parts will help with that.
Perhaps some. I do know I had more wind noise from above the windows. I had a rain guard cover above the windows making a lot of wind noise.
Does this do the rear little windows as well? It wasn't clear in the video. All my felt strips are bending and peeling up, including the little rear ones. It doesn't show on the link the separation between the windows that roll down in the rear and the felt that is in the stationary rear windows.

I'm done with mine today. thanks
Is this the same for the 2010 Acura MDX?
Should be very similar procedure, just slightly different trim pieces. I would verify that the ones you order are specifically for your model.
I love your car seats. Wish I have same color too 😢
Thank you making video .
Where can I buy these moldings?
I have an Amazon link in the video description if it's still current.
Excelente video, gracias
Are these the same size on the coupe model?
I believe they are different. I would double check that your model/style is listed as correct before ordering. I only ordered for my model so I cannot say for certain.

do you know the link for this mouldings for accord 7 from 2007 year. Iam from UK and cant find aftermarket once,new from ASO are 300 pounds:(
These from Amazon say they fit. To be fair I have no experience with these or the 7th Gen. Just as an example...
