Does anyone know how to remove these pins or screws on the Honda Accord 2018 undercarriage panel. It is the smaller panel right behind the main front panel. If anyone has video or tutorials on how to remove the panel off or what this second panel is called, it would be great.

Are all the pins/screws the same? Can you provide a close up of the pins/screws (if they are not all alike provide a pic of the different ones)?

Yeah, all the screws/pins look the same. I cannot go underneath the car, so I’m unable to take a closer up pictures of them, sorry. This is the best picture that I found online similar to mine. Thanks for your response, btw.

Ok, no worries. Not able/easy to get under mine to look either to see what fasteners they are.

Couldn't be that difficult. Phillips, Allen, or torx.

That's what I was thinking too... also could be the plastic clips/plugs that are used in so many places on our car's if this a place that heat isn't a factor.

They are all Plastic tabs, 10mm, 12mm bolts and Phillips screw driver underneath the car. It’s pretty easy to work on. 2 are up higher on the side.

That smaller medal panel is part of the larger black plastic panel. They are one piece.

Seems that cover isn't supposed to come off on its own, the entire engine undercover is supposed to come off as one piece.

I was about to change the engine oil and noticed that there is some undercover missing. I mean at this place from the picture above:

But I don't find such neither in the parts' catalogue.

I can provide real pictures later if needed...

That's thee Above Mentioned Oil Filter Cover - which Keeps Stones from Poking Hole in Filter ..
Also Aids in Heat to Crank Case in Cold Winter ./.

In Very Hot Summers like in South - I Bent it out some allowing more Engine Bay Hot Air to Exit ~ Under Chassis ..
It also Uses same Fasteners as shown above #7

@EngTech1 thanks for the reply. My bad I didn't see it. I noticed too that on the hole surround there is place for fasteners, so that's why I suggested there's something missing there.

As far as I see 74119-TVC-A00 is the part number.

I got mine. I'm still awaiting my screws, but that's other story.

I though it was bigger...

Check out what some lazy, but at the same time wize canadian technician has done to my bigger tray:

Hood Jaw Automotive tire Tints and shades Fender

I guess it was the same guy, that decided that I need my smaller tray no more, as it takes too much of his precious time for him to remove three screws.
