Removing License Trim
 

Have any of you removed the "License Trim" from the rear hatch door? This is the large piece of chrome that runs right across the hatch. I have to remove it to get at the rearview camera. I got the other pieces off, but this is external, so any mistakes will show. There's a nut on either end and then those snap-in clips along its length.

The view from the camera is hazy. There's either moisture inside, or it has to be replaced for about $150.

Yes, it did. Thanks. I thought I might be able to disassemble the camera to clear the foggy image, but I guess not. I ordered a new one for $167.47.

sucks silverEX. hope you get that thing fixed soon. big price to pay for something that shouldnt break in a few yrs time.

Considering what you get with that tiny camera, the price is a bit high. On the other hand, have you checked the price of replacement key fobs for the Fit? They're over $300! Ridiculous!

Now that I ordered the new one, I will be opening up the old one. I may not be able to repair it or get it back together, but I will see what's inside it. : )

right.. and the GK's fob is such a cheap looking pos too.

its aways fun taking things apart! :D let us know wat u find.
