NVm, got it off but realized the idiot at the dealership gave me a pass side cap so it won't fit

part # is 72644-SEP-A01ZE

I asked for the Rear Drivers side door cap and got a pass side. Is that part number correct or is there a different part number for it?

Ah... Guess I never noticed that before. Interesting mod indeed. Simple and clean, and nobody notices it haha. I may just have to do this one, too!

Everything I've read since first hearing about this mod 3 minutes ago suggests you can easily pop off the cover to access the keyhole? Seems like a minor inconvenience in the extremely rare instance that type of scenario were to occur.

^^this happen to me just recently, battery went dead, guess what, no power therefore no response to open the lock. Well just got a small flat screw driver and used it to pry the cover off.

You carry a small flat screw driver with you at all times?

It's a great looking mod, but not very practical if you're out of town.

A Swiss Army knife goes everywhere with me, except where security doesn't allow the knife.

Besides, you'll see in Ramblings that AZ members are pretty much required to carry pocket knives or tactical knives along with some expensive flashlight.
