    COUPE LX-i Owners come here please...

    Okay, I just had some headliner work done. Now, I'm almost positive I had an "Oh Shit" grabhandle on my driver's side in the front before said headliner work was performed.. Now, I have the passenger side (front and rear) and a driver's rear only. Please check your whip to see if I did have that handle up front or not. Thanks so much!!

    i dont have one on the drivers side. I think the logic for that would be that if the driver gets in an 'oh shit' situation, he better have his hands on the wheel and not above his head on a handle that wont do a lick of good.

    Okay. I was on crack then. I figured they would not put one there because the driver is posa have the hands at 10 and 2 and a grab handle would be too tempting to get lazy... Maybe it is my Prelude. I know I have driven when on cruise control using that handle to be lazy. My memory is like Leonard Shelby... "Remember Sammy Jankis!"

    Most older cars don't have them on the drivers side. I don't. My TL doesn't have one either...

    I don't have one either. There isn't a need for one.

    I have them all over mine (customized) just in case I'm in an "oh shit" situation I can grab ahold onto something to brace myself. Ok, I was just kidding about that. No, I don't have an "oh shit" handle on the front driverside. Maybe you're just seeing/feeling things in your car, man.

    Nope, you can't. If you really have the time, you can try and see if a sedan trunklid would fit on a coupe though. Good luck.

    We wouldn't know unless someone actually tries it.
