Just in case anyone cares...I doubt it but here goes...

I know the 96-00 Civics inside and out...the 2002 was more or less the same, but they seem to have really concentrated on ease of panel removal and manufacturing than solid construction. The dash is now mostly clips instead of screws, and the floor side panels use shoddy joints to connect to the rear seat side panels. Word of advice: be careful and patient with them. Dash design isn't bad, easy to install and remove once you see how the clips are attached. Other than that, not having the metal sheet on the rear seatbacks surprised me, as well as the sleeve design of the seat covers. Again, ease of removal, construction = lower costs for Honda in the long run. Any thoughts or comments appreciated.
