Anyone know of any online warehouses for used Civic parts? The center console arm rest lid is broken on ours and I need to replace it. $125 for a new one from Honda seems a tad bit expensive and the few used ones I can find on eBay aren't much cheaper. Don't really have too many salvage yards where I live at either.

 

My latch is broken too. I compensate by sliding the armrest all the way forward so it doesn't spring up on its own. You can probably order the broken part from here:

For used, http://www.car-part.com/

 

I've found several sites where I can buy a new one, I just don't think it's worth $125 for the lid I would have thought given the popularity of Honda cars that I would have a plethora of used sources to pull from, but I can't seem to find any. The few that I have found want almost as much for used ones as they cost new. I'm trying some local salvage yards in my area as well, but no luck so far. If I needed this for my old VW van, I would've had it in the mail by now for $5

 

When I said "broken part" I meant whatever part is broken in the lid. I believe my latch is broken, #20. If I weren't so lazy and tolerant of my "fix" I'd order the part for $8 and change

the http://www.car-part.com that I linked will take some looking, but you will find it there and for less than $125.

These ain't Veedubs...

 

I will look again, but the piece I needed wasnt separated out - it was included as part of the larger 125 part.

 

My middle latch broke too!

If you find an extra cheap part, let me know.

 

OK, I'm an idiot, I was looking at the parts diagram backwards (should know better). Yes, the part that I need is in fact only like $8 I'll post up the link later when I get a minute for others that need the latch/locking mechanism.

 

Idiot is a bit harsh...

I think I've come up with a cheaper solution... I'm going to take the spring, #33 out...
