driver side key cover

What's the part number / where can I buy the driver side key cover for the handle? I think someone stole mine. Not sure it's possible for it to come off unintentionally.

Everything I find is for coupe.. is it the same as sedan? Or where is the sedan one?

Someone must have broke yours off, it's hard to take off accidentally.
Here is the part number if you want to put the blank over-top, and effectively delete the keyhole (that's what I did) Cleaner look.

82646-JU81A

I've seen this part number before but it says "Right, Front, Rear". To be clear is this just the cap that I'm missing or is this some kind of modification past how the car comes? I want to leave it the normal way where it has the keyhole hidden under the cap, not replace the keyhole entirely.

No it's just a cap, so if you put this on it'll just cover the keyhole. if you need to get in there if your battery dies or something you can just pop it off and still use the keyhole.

What's the difference? The listings are really vague and this is unclear.

They come pre-painted, so you need to make sure its the right color for your car.
If you look here you can see the paint codes: https://parts.infinitiusa.com/a/INFI..._1.html#80645M

Yeah, the color was one of my concerns.

So this is the one that makes it look like there's no keyhole there, and I can remove it if I need to access the keyhole, right? My keyhole is there right now and visible. Previously, it looked like there was nothing there but part of the handle structure.

Right, that's the one that makes it look like there is no keyhole there. Here is the one with the keyhole: https://parts.infinitiusa.com/p/INFI...646-JU60A.html

If you're saying previously you didn't see the keyhole than you somehow already had the right side / delete part, which is weird. It doesn't come like that.

I bought it used so maybe the previous owner did it.

I was looking at some pictures for something unrelated and they are older.. and I noticed I had no cap there. I thought I found a pic from last month that had the cap but I must have been seeing things. I'm looking at a picture from when I first bought it and it didn't have the cap, and this was before someone hit the driver side of the car.

So I have the keyhole exposed and it's been like this since I bought it, I guess.

Someone broke mine off a few months ago in an attempt to get into my car. I found a few used replacements on Ebay that were in good condition.

"Keyhole Escutcheon"
Driver: (p/n: 80646-xxxxx) has hole for key:


Passenger: (p/n: 82646-xxxxx) solid cap:

The right (passenger) side door handle does NOT have a lock cylinder which is why a solid cap was used instead of a "key hole" cap.

Technically, the right side (solid) cover will fit the left (keyhole) side. Many (myself included) have ordered the right side cap to replace/ "delete" the left key hole- makes for a cleaner line, IMO at least.

You can order whichever one you want- subject to availability in your paint code or search for used on eBay.
