Similar yes, here is mine.
I think it was on my end, but the white tabs you showed are the same as the ones I see, just black. The link webby posted is spot on as always and the OP of the thread mentioned epoxy and plastic welding, but I might try the lath screws. Wish there was a photo showing that process, but hopefully I can figure it out without putting a hole through anything. If anything I'm just trying to figure it out and set it aside for the time being.For whatever reason, my browser won't load the pictures you included-- it just has red X's in place of them.
From the link that our local polymath @webby posted, it looks like the point of contention might be the surrounding clips afterward. I'm not sure if those can be put back on after undoing them without some sort of adhesive.
Oh no!
The only thing I can think of is that part of the car's immobilizer may have gotten popped somehow -- the symptoms are similar. The chip for Civics rests right above the ignition, but some of the wiring routs through the wheel, if I'm not mistaken. I'd check the interior/exterior fuse boxes first, though. Nothing sits right behind the emblem besides the airbag/bag housing, but some wires are nestled right behind it. Maybe some wire touched some sort of thing by accident?
Jumping the car off is what a lot of people wind up doing if their immobilizers act up in an emergency --Me included at one time. When it fails normally, a green key icon will light up on the dash. Since this sounds more like an electrical short, that probably won't be the case. This is all just speculation of course, but maybe it will help?
Here's some videos to explain how the technology works, and what it does when it doesn't work.
