Does anyone know how to remove the door trim on our generation civic?
I havent seen any definite way to do it without breaking something.
I want to remove them and Bondo the holes for a cleaner look.

Yeah basically! Thanks! :D

I guess I didn't search hard enough. :?
Instead of welding the holes, can I just bondo them and leave it at that?

Welding would be better, but if you are really good with bondo i'm sure you could get away with it.

The problem is I don't have access to a welder or know anyone that can weld.
bondo will have to do! I'll be extra careful when smoothing out the surface.

And then if I prime the are and re-paint, it should be water-proof or at the very least water-resistant?
