hey thanks for the reply Jani, for those who have the same problem as me and would like to know how to take the car panel apart theres a guide up on autozone that shows how to replace the actuator for accords, civics, preludes, s2000's base on years. Very nice guide, helped me alot, I was able to buy the actuator new for $60 from norm reeves honda in cerritos and then just did the installation myself. Took some time as I did everything very carefully making sure not to break any clips that held the door panel together.
