Default Broken Tail Light

Does anyone know where to get a cheap replacement? Is it the same as the regular Civic, 2 door and 4 door? Thanks!

It's not the same for the 2 door. You might want to check 7thgencivic.com Someone might have some to sell. Make sure you get the right one though. I think the 01 and 02 will fit, but isn't exactly the same.

You can check compatibility by going to hondaautomotiveparts.com and seeing if the part numbers match.

I just had to replace my pass side taillight and went to www.directauto.com. Honda changed the look of the tailights in 03, so though I think 01-02 will fit, they'll look different (no circles in the lens).

When replacing it, be careful of the nuts securing the taillight. I had to shimmy the rear bumper off of it's tabs in order to get access from underneath. Good luck!

Cheers

Part numbers don't match, in fact the Hybrid taillight is $30.00 more. It's $97.24. MF. This hurts, what a mistake backing into a trash can.

Here's an excerpt from my email receipt on the taillight I used. It fits, and it matches the other side perfectly. Dunno why the hybrid taillight would be more expensive... unless it's for the new '06 since the LED taillights are a hybrid exclusive.

Good luck!
