God it’s been a pain in the ass today. It’s fallen three times. wtf am I doing wrong?!?
They're disposable basically. If they come out once you need new ones. It's junk plastic that deform and stays deformed.

Mine started falling out 2 days after buying the car. Dealer replaced them and they were good until recently. Now I have to go back to the dealer and make them replace them again.

Also if you read the manual, it specifically says the handles are not for closing the hatch, but for bringing it down low enough so you can grab the spoiler to close the hatch 🙄

p3 front and p2 rear.
Oh damn. That’s an interesting combo. If U don’t mind me asking, why not p3 all the way around? And what kind of hell do U put your car through.

I’m ready to pull the trigger on paragon rotors and pads (stock size rears tho) but I’m just stuck on pads. I don’t track and haven’t in a long time but I do occasionally do hood rat stuff with friends on fun roads.

I got the Black Friday sale. :) I ordered p2 all around but the p2s were back ordered and I didn’t want to wait. So far the P2s on the rear have been great. No complaints.

I don’t track as well. Mine is a daily - this was a pricey cosmetic upgrade. :D

I think the real solution is to replace the handles AND the hatch liner that they clip into. I think both snaps deform and cause the problem.

This all means that they are one-time use parts which is ridiculous... this is the one area where i miss my BMWs for sure.

The handles theoretically should be snapping into the metal cutout instead of the liner, but I think that's part of the design problem, because the liner adds bulk and prevents the handles from properly snapping in.

Don't even get me started on bmw vs acura quality, lol. Our X7 has more luxury and build quality in the third row than the Integra has anywhere. I know the price disparity is like 45k$, but still... The mdx vs an X5 or X7 is so night and day I can't imagine anyone cross shopping. The seats in the X7 I never want to get out of... The integra feels like a folding chair in comparison 😔😑
