Hey Guys
I have a 2000 Civic Ex. This is my first honda and I have never really worked on cars before. I want to install door popper kit and have a few questions about that.
1. What kit should I get? Where should I get the parts from? Any good sources on the web?
2. I am looking to spend 300-400 bucks on it at most. Is this enough ?
3. I want to install it myself.. again since I am a newbie, I want to make sure this is not a overwhelming project for me(I plan to work alone). I am not looking to do a shaved door handle install, just a door popper
4. Are there any install instructions that I can go by?

Thanks for the help

I was wondering the same thing...isn't the point of door poppers so you can remove the handles and still be able to open the door?

awptickes · 02-01-2008, 04:32 AM

Uh. Why would you leave the handles? Door poppers are for when you shave the handles.

I'm pretty sure your door handles won't work after you setup the door for poppers.

I guess I dont even know that the door handles would stop working after the popper kit install. In texas, shaved door handles are "illegal" as per a thread in another forum, so I will have to drop this project and move on.
Thanks for the help

Its a waste of money. But for stuff like door poppers check out minitrucker sites.

Did anyone else notice that he said "door poopers"? Heh heh...that's funny...
