Quick up date on my 2002 Accord.
The boot lid had some paint peal on it and the previous owner tried to fix it himself with very little success.
So I got a boot from a scrapyard and gave it my mate to spray it and I fitted myself. Total cost €80.
The old boot:
The new one went on easy enough, just a simple case of disconnecting everything on the old one and doing it all in reverse.
Tools: Philips head screwdriver, 10mm socket, needle nose pliers and an optional cup of coffee and a smoke
New boot fitted:
It took about 30 minutes, it was a little annoying trying to get the locking arm aligned but other than that is was very straight forward.
I think I'll leave all the badges off as it looks nice and clean without them B)
