Does this fit both the 8th and 9th gen Honda Accord?
Yes — the 90602-TA0-003 covers the 8th generation Accord (2008–2012) and the 9th generation (2013–2017). Both generations use the same cowl vent clip geometry. The 10th generation (2018+) uses a different cowl design.
Does this fit the 2015–2020 Honda Fit?
The 90602-TA0-003 is cataloged for the 2nd generation Honda Fit (2009–2014, GE chassis). The 3rd generation Fit (2015–2020, GK chassis) uses a different cowl panel design and a different retainer. For a 2015+ Fit, cross-reference your OEM part number.
Why is this retainer blue?
Honda uses color coding on cowl retainers so technicians can identify clip types at a glance during service. Blue identifies this specific geometry — different from the white 90602-SX0-003 and the blue 90602-S5A-003, which have different stem diameters and head sizes. Always confirm by matching dimensions, not just color.
How many do I need per vehicle?
Honda Accord and Fit cowl vent panels typically use 8–15 of these retainers. We sell in packs of 10, 20, 40, and 60 pieces — volume pricing is applied automatically. With over 1,000 units in stock, this is one of our most available Honda cowl retainers.
When should I replace these?
Replace them any time the cowl vent panel is removed — most commonly during windshield replacement. Nylon retainers degrade with UV and heat exposure. On vehicles over 10 years old, replace the full set rather than just the broken ones.
