um anyone know where i can get one? or what kinda of nut/screw it uses..

i don't have one for my door trim, like, the part where, above the speaker, and when u close the door, its hidden. it looks like a 1.5cm nut. i have it for my LHS door, but not the driver side.. it rattles when music plays, gets frustrating :)

take out the left side, check the size and screw it back in?
chances are its something like an m6 15mm nut

Is the top of the 'screw' flat? If so, you need to get a flat head screwdriver and slide it between the flat piece and the bottom of the screw. Once you wedge the head of the driver in, twist it 90 degrees and the head will pop out. Then you can remove the screw, take it to honda or a wreckers and get a replacement.

if you can get it out take it to a nut & bolt shop and ask for another of the same, that is if it is a metal screw and not a plastic plug thingy.

oh dude its like a door trim piece
just go to repco/autobarn/supercheapauto and find a replacement
usually found on racks in little blister packs, brand's like champion or something

if you really can't take our word for it
get a philips head, screw it until theres about 5mm of thread
grab the screw and pull, the whole thing will pop out for you to see

umm i dont think its a screw.. its one of those ones that lock itself in and expand .. if u unscrew it abit and pull it should pop straight out.. iv taken mine out a fair few times.. i think i havnt even put mine back on , on driver side door yet.. i dont think it affects the rattling...

well it does.. i held the it down, and no rattling. and put my hand on it softly.. no ratting..

it vibrates onto the dashboard side.. and thats y it makes a rattle sound..
