Fixed the actuator in my 2005 Honda CRV!

Instead of paying $200-$300 dollars to have my actuator fixed by Honda, I decided to get the part and try fixing it myself. It wasn't too bad! I did find out there's this "Honda Bond" that is one of the stickiest things I've ever touched. (Try not to let your hair touch it if you attempt this at home.) Surprisingly, excluding the actuator, it only took a few screwdrivers and a wrench to fix the door!

Here's a picture of the door before I started work:

This is the after I took off the panel:

The actuator is the yellowing piece on the bottom:
