Hi
I have a 2001 Civic Sport.
I trying to get some wing mirrors with the indicator lights on, do you know where I can buy these for a reasonable price?
The boot handle on my car is black which looks really crappy compared to the one that are colour coded to the car or chrome. Is it difficult to change these?
Thanks

which indicators are you after the standard ones or aftermarket?
if its the stock ones then they cost quite a bit from honda, your best bet might be a scrappy or someone braking a facelift civic, CTR or accord as these all had them
as for the boot trim its not difficult you just need to take out the interior trim to get to it

Thanks for the response.
As for the boot handle thingy.
Do you know if Honda sells these and if so how much?
Do you guys think the chrome boot handle will look better than the black one?

im sure honda sell them and i dont think they would cost too much but you would have to paint it and get a new badge.

The Chrome boot handle is a matter of taste. I have seen a lot of them on the 5Doors but I'm not sure if these will fit the 3Door.

i never knew that there was a fully chrome version?!
halfloafs right it most probably wont fit as the hatch shape is very different tho that of a 3 door

It may be easier to just get this sprayed at a bodyshop

Body coloured without a doubt, keeps it nice and simple.

Yeah defo body coloured gets my vote, pesonally I would avoid the chrome one, bit too "add-on" for my liking.
The body coloured handle is my next mod, looks way better than the black one. Although there hard to find :?

I agree with you guys. The chrome looks a little too flash.
Just to let you guys know I got a quote from my local Honda Dealer- £29 for the colour coded one and approx £25 (15mins labour) to install.
I think I might order it and try to install myself.
Thanks

Yeah, might as well try yourself mate! And if you cant do it, there is always honda to fall back on.
