Compatible with all Honda Civic models from 1996 through 2011, it’s a practical, DIY-friendly fix you can install in minutes with basic tools.

Constructed from high-quality aluminum, this latch delivers long-lasting strength while resisting heat and corrosion. Available in Red, Blue, Black, or Silver, you can choose a finish that matches your Civic or helps you code different vehicles.
