Which is the passenger side and which is the driver side?

[@MrRhythmguitar]

Nice video, I was able to follow the steps to replace both the left and right Drip Edge Molding parts. Here the parts were about $115 each from the Honda dealer, and the clips were about $3 to $5 depending on the type. The box that each molding comes in is 8 feet long, about 18 inches wide and 4 inches deep, about the size of a surf board. By folding down the rear seats and moving the passenger seat all the way forward and reclining it I was able to take one box home in my Civic per trip from the dealer. The yellow and blue clips, underneath the floppy rubber bit, can be more easily removed by using a small flat head screwdriver to release the tab through the slots on the white clips that are attached to the body. The clips are fragile, so be careful. The section that runs along the roof can be most easily removed by tilting the drip edge molding towards the center of the roof. Again, remove the parts slowly and carefully to avoid breakage. My advise, pick up some extra yellow clips. Depending amount of deterioration you may find that some of the clips are damaged, also they break fairly easily. I also discovered that one on the white clips along the windshield had only half the plastic remaining and I had to run over to the dealer to pick up a new one before proceeding. The entire process took about 35 to 45 minutes per side. It was fairly easy to do. I can't believe that Honda wanted about $200 in labor for each side to do this relatively easy fix. Thanks for the video, great job!

[@brianmurphy9336]

Excellent Video. I followed these simple steps and completed the job in about 40 mins. (I could do it in half the time if I had to do it again). Parts were $92 each at my local Honda dealer. Called first to make sure they were in stock. Part numbers for 2008 4 Door Civic were: 73158-SNA-013 and 73168-SNA- 013. Left and Right.

[@daniloyap4710]

When buying 73158-SNA-013 and 73168-SNA- 013, do they come along with complete small parts of yellow clips?

[@ketan_rana]

@@daniloyap4710 I don't think.. I see www.hondapartsstoreonline.com/v-2008-honda-civic-sedan--ex--5-speed-automatic/interior-bumper--molding Clip A, B, C and "Clip, Root Molding" are needed in case they are broken when removing the moulding strips. Refer pictures for each item.

[@rjaypantojan1508]

Thats a fair price for each piece... i having a problem looking that up online and it says there almost up to 250 for both left and right..

[@amcascooper90]

You have right and left part numbers mixed up. 75168 is left, (divers) side from what I am finding.

[@Tomimi570]

They were 130 at my nearest stealership now :(

Thank you for taking the time to help us all out. You would make a great neighbor 😁

[@angelophillips5334]

This is why the internet is awesome. Thank you for posting with part numbers!!!

[@gotchagirlfriend]

Thank you so much! Love the video! The dealing in San Diego wanted to charge me $106.12 parts, per side, plus $120 per side installation. Dealers are Robbers for sure!

[@believensee8621]

Omg!!! That is outrageous.

[@billmurray34]

Thank You for the awesome video and giving me the part numbers i needed. I could not tell what was needed by the diagrams I looked at. Call Honda and the had the right side in stock, 150 bucks in California. Returned home and installed in less than 15 mins. Once again Thank You...

[@RusticB]

Thanks for the video!! Here’s another PRO-tip when removing the old molding! 👉 you can avoid breaking a clip by pushing on the yellow tab you can see through the window of the white clip, as you pull it upwards.. I used my pocket knife to press the yellow clip in a bit, which helped me get it out smoothly... I learned this after breaking one of the white clips on the first side

[@kforkhalid]

Appreciate the heads up, and sad to know you had to learn it the hard way

[@abrahamjami4367]

Thank you for making this video so clearly and not over explained. Keep doing more videos 👍🏽

[@g-radm3827]

Dealer wanted $450 for parts, labor, and install. rip-off! Awesome vid, thank you!

[@paulleung1624]

Thank you so much for this helpful video! Saved a lot of money doing it at home instead of through the dealer. Thanks!

[@karencobb7070]

Thank you for sharing this. It is exactly what I needed to know. The car wash blew out both sides on my 2010!

[@fuhryfilms]

Just replaced the same trim on my 2011 Civic, thanks for your time and effort sir to post this video. God bless!

[@mattmattmatt8984]

Migs714, I really appreciate you taking the extra effort to record the awesome and succinct tutorial - good looking-out, wingman. I've got a 2011 Civic; parts look the same; now searching for parts.

[@RicoSweets210]

Himynameismatt Itsnicetomeetyou same! What’s weird is that I actually went to my Honda dealer to ask what this was they said I had to get my whole windshield replaced... so I said I’ll wait and now I’m doing my research and wow I can’t believe how wrong they were maybe they wanted more money from me but now I feel like I cannot trust them anymore

[@gtavares4299]

Thank you for putting this video together. It put my mind at easy to know how the thing was held together. I just replaced my left and right molding for the cost of the parts, which wasn't cheap. This part was so poorly designed. Honda should have realized how stupid the design was when they had to put the part in 7 foot long boxes. Thanks again.

[@GihanTimantha]

I just replaced mine without any issues. Thanks a lot for the detailed instructions. As a hint, rather than pulling the old trim directly from hand, just use a flat-head screwdriver to gently push the clip fastners. This way you can ensure all clips are secured for reuse in the new trim.

[@jacklesko9917]

Gihan Timantha where’d you get them? Link?

[@GihanTimantha]

@@jacklesko9917 I got them through Dealership. Available online at cheaper price but shipping is too expensive.

[@geomary424]

Thank you the best video I’ve seen so far, to fix this problem

[@Ailarie]

I'm adding another "thumbs up" for the OP's creation of this video. Like others, I needed to replace one (driver's) and the other was showing serious signs of deterioration as well. (vehicle is 10 years old, though.) The dealer's price for labor/installation was insane. Labor at home took about 40 minutes, and saved about 200 bucks. Note: For those considering a do-it-yourself option.. the installation isn't bad. However, where you order the parts from will make a difference. True, dealership pricing isn't cheap. However, if you order online, note that not only are you paying shipping, the cost will be far more than usual as the parts come in boxes that are about 7 feet in length. Therefore, (as I understand it) they can't be shipped through regular protocols are are considered "Freight", adding even more to the shipping costs. Go ahead and buy the parts at the dealer. Handle the installation on your own. Oh.. go ahead and purchase at least replacement yellow clips. The ones in place may have deteriorated and could break off when removing the older parts. It's far better to pay the extra and have the clips available, than to risk breaking one, and have to make a second trip for parts.

[@reginat5943]

Thank you for the video. I didn't know what to call that trimming. Regardless of word play you'd think it would still pop up when I searched for it. Wrong. You're much appreciated!

[@JDDimas]

Thank you for making this. Helped me switch these out in 30 minutes!

[@sporkfineart]

Thanks for the video. Extremely helpful. After reading the comments I agree, Honda charges way too much for the aesthetic parts.

[@pstimeymo3035]

Thanks for the video. Got the parts from eBay ($200) and did in one hour while following your video.

[@williamcraig2050]

@migs - Extremely appreciative of this walkthrough! Replacing these on my '07. The black covering on the moulding had started to separate along with the little skirt between the moulding and the windshield.

[@HoaLe-ku5nq]

Very good instructions…Thanks

[@cynthiaalzora1990]

Mine are missing as well on my 2010 Civic ! I feel it should have been a recall for all 2010 Honda Civic for this issue !

[@Squee_666_9]

Recalls for vehicles happen when there is a consistent safety issue which would cause serious injury or loss of life. The windshield trim doesn't cause a safety issue.

[@cynthiaalzora1990]

Squee6669 Not true! I’ve had my Civic since 2010 brand new . I had fading paint on the hood of my car . They sent me a recall paper in the mail for the paint issue . They repaired it for free ! And paint is definitely not a safety hazard and it was a recall on mine ! Only speaking from experience

[@Squee_666_9]

@@cynthiaalzora1990 Seriously? Well I definitely got screwed over on the paint job then. My Civics paint looks awful and Honda wouldn't do anything about it.

[@cynthiaalzora1990]

Squee6669 That’s ridiculous!!! They were supposed to repair it for free ! I hate that , that happened to you .

[@sev-nutz8524]

Thanks the part numbers were super helpful

[@Jellyballs]

I haven't replaced mine yet but I just got done doing a road trip and the clips are exposed because the rubber flew off. The wind noise was a lot louder so it helps in that area too..., so I need to fix it asap! ***Edit- Replaced the parts. Thank you for the video.

[@HeromeBolisayMusic]

did you get to fix it??

[@Jellyballs]

I just fixed it this morning. My fingers turned black because the rubber was really sticky and degraded. The bad part is, my local dealership charged me $277 just for the parts!! I tried to purchase online but shipping is expensive for these and the cost would of exceeded $300.. It hurt my wallet, but I really needed it.

[@HeromeBolisayMusic]

Yeah me too, but the good thing is I looked for " Civic 2010 Parting out" on Craigslist, Facebook market, letgo, and offer up, luckily I found one on craigslist and he sold the pair molding for $60 with clips.

[@nicholasdwarika]

What kind of noise does it make? My mom gets a loud rattling noise and her moulding needs replacing.

[@Squee_666_9]

If you are going to replace this yourself you need to know that simply pulling the trim to unclip doesn't work. You want to use a flathead screwdriver to press the part of the clips that are holding onto the part that's connected to the car. This allows you to remove the trim and reuse the clips. I just replaced mine and broke three clips in the process.

[@franciscorosado22]

Thank you for the video really helped out a lot. Been meaning to do this project for a few years now and wasnt sure how to. Thanks!

[@davidedgerton1]

thank you, just did a 2008 and it was easy, thanks to YOU

[@mardigras622]

davidedgerton1 - Did you have to insert a tool (narrow tip screwdriver, plastic pry tool, etc.) to release the 4 side clips from the 4 white clip retainers that reside along the sides of the windshield? Also, did you have to pry up the lower corner cover at the bottom corners of windshield in order to remove and replace the very bottom of the trim pieces that slide under?

[@rakeshmahadevan269]

I have been looking for these steps and part number for a long time. Thanks a lot for sharing. Just a query, does this come as one piece with the rubber seal and side plastic cover that closes the gap between the Windshield and the trim?

[@fi8er1]

Rakesh Mahadevan Did you find the answer to this? ^

[@mardigras622]

Yes, it’s all one single piece that makes up each front-to-rear molding along with the rubber weatherstripping along the windshield glass.

Great install video!👌👍

[@luisconstance1272]

Can't believe Honda Service Department charges $200 to install these moldings. Insane! On a side note the shipping costs are more than the actual moldings. So I guess I will have to buy at the dealer. Unless anyone knows where these can be bought and shipped at a fair price.

[@dauntlessdom5926]

You must have been looking from HondaPartsNow. I was going to order new belt moldings for all four of the windows of my civic sedan from there until I saw the shipping. Then I found cheaperhondaparts.com and I only had to pay around $21-$22 for shipping. Good luck!! :)

[@Jellyballs]

item no longer for sale :(

[@luisconstance1272]

Yeah I saw that too. I recommend just taking off the trim from an old Honda at your local junkyard. Or buying a new one from Honda. Luckily I have a friend that works at Honda and gets a discount. So if you have a hook up do that.

My local dealer here in Newport News, VA quoted me $1,463.00 for parts and labor for the 4 windows and the windshield trim......yes that's correct, $1,463.00. Parts was about $500 and the rest in labor. Of course I declined.

[@williamrainer6420]

Thanks for the post! the rubber stripping was blown away in a carwash on both sides of the windshield. If I buy these mouldings will they come with that rubber weather stripping/seal/ attached? Thank you for reading this and for your response. If the seals dont come with this moulding, would you know of how I could get the seals and repair the car? I noticed in your video the rubber seals are missing before you put on the mouldings and then the seals are there when you put the mouldings back on.

[@mardigras622]

William Rainer yes, the rubber seal portion that rests against the windshield glass is built into the molding.
