pops right on...gently pop the cap off the metal piece that comes with it ( all you need is the cap ) then replace onto existing metal piece on door

yea, I have this as well. Here is a link for you to order if that helps. See # 22
http://www.acuraoemparts.com/delray/...All&vinsrch=no

just a suggestion, order two.
They are very cheap and if you lose another you are gonna pay more to have it shipped then the part actually costs so spending an extra $9 may save you shipping later

oh yea and as others have mentioned, they just pop on, you dont need the metal piece it comes with

If you do the shaved keyhole mod, forget about using your valet key. I forgot about this one day at the beach and had to pry my cap off to get to the keyhole! DOH!

^^ I do, but the purpose was to reduce the amount of stuff carried to the beach. I learned and put away my valet key. I never let valets park my car anyway.
