    I'm here because Honda can't make plastics that can withstand weakass global warming winters. Ridiculous and if you dont replace shitty cowl pieces, water pools into floors of front seats. I sucked half a littre of water from some rainy driving w my shop vac. Had to dry everything. Might have to rip up carpet if small doesn't go away. Thanks for video!

      Oh good lord, I was hoping that this piece is cosmetic. I just had the windshield replaced and they broke the front cowl..

      @@eseven2547 nope. If cowl gets chipped, water will bleed through. Sucks cleaning

    Excellent video. I have to do a valve adjustment, so I want to remove my cowl and the metal portion underneath so I can get better access. Thanks.

      I have done that before. Don't feel bad. It happens to most of us at some point as we work on our cars.

    You really shouldn't t have to replace any of this it should last the lifetime of the car in my view.
    Poor quality plastics.

    Instead of all that plastic pins and tabs that break everytime, why don't the crappy japanese engineering uses fucking screws? The ol' american screws?
