When I upgraded the speakers and add a pair of tweeters to my 9th Gen Accord Sport, I noticed the ugly black caps under the door panels too where the courtesy lights are supposed to be. I have never owned a car that does not have courtesy light so it is weird and I have to agree, Honda is too cheap to spend probably less than $5 to add them from the factory. After opening up the door panel, I discovered like he did that there is no wiring harness or socket for the lights, so the modification is not simple. This is a lot of work just to add two courtesy lights, imagine it is double work to add 4 lights to the Accord Sedan! Although this is technically feasible, it is too much work to get all of those wiring in place and the harnesses for the light bulbs plus you will be paying premium for the light bulbs and lens for each door. The biggest problem is that he has to tap into the factory wiring harness and that will invalidate the factory car warranty. Honda would refuse to fix his car electrical problem even if it is their problem because he violated their warranty policy by making modifications to the electrical wiring. I had first hand experience on this Honda warranty problem when I had an after market alarm system installed in my 1996 Honda Accord V6 by then Circuit City (with their life time guarantee no less) and three years later, the car had electrical shorts and the alarm system would randomly activated. Honda dealer refused to fix it under warranty and I had to pay them to replace the entire under dash electrical harness because the morons at Circuit City mucked it up and caused the shorts. Hindsight, I should have paid a couple hundreds more for the OEM alarm and remote entry system to avoid the aggravation and $500-600 bill later. In the case of the 9th Gen Honda Accord, I would put in the illuminated door sills like he did to help with car entry and forget about the damned courtesy lights. If you really want them, buy Accord V6 model or buy another car make. This latter action will send a clear message to Honda to stop pinching pennies and pound foolish. They should have put the courtesy lights in all of their Accords, Civics, save for the cheapest FIT. For the prices that they charged for a new car, it is completely and utterly disgraced for Honda to cheat their customers the simple door lights that should always have been there.

He was doing well, until he SKIP THE WHOLE PART where it goes to do basically the MAIN connection to the door, he didn't even show where the fuse that he show at the first part of the video, like where you put that. explain how it goes not how to do it… I feel like i saw a video how remove the door panel pretty much. Good video overall.
