Just bought a G1 insight and need a couple of parts; where can I get them

[austininsightbill]

Hi all.

Just became part of Insight family. Been a Porsche guy for 18 years (fully restored '73 911T), own 3 Saabs ('96 900 convertible and 2 late model 9-3s) and a T&C minivan.

Bought a 2003 Insight CVT with 110K miles.

So far, love it.

But have discovered that I am missing a couple of the undercarriage splashguard type pieces.

Any idea where I can get these parts? Have had a search set up on eBay for the past week or so but so far no parts.

I know all the Porsche and Saab recyclers, so now need to get plugged into the Insight network.

Ant help would be appreciated.

. . . so I bought the Insight as a carbon offset for my old, hydrocarbon spewing Porsche

congratulations, you will be happy with the choice...(especially after several visits to the gas station)

I bought mine from majestic Honda too. Hard to find used...

Thanks for the links, guys. Prices, especially for new, not too bad at all (especially after buying classic 911 parts for the past 18 years!).

BTW, what is grid charging? PHEV? or just for topping up/conditioning the battery? Can you tell me more?

Great find and I really like your hydrocarbon spewing Porsche...

Check out Mike Dubrowski and Jeff652, they have all kinds of info on grid charging (including the chargers).
