Default Japanese Parts for my Insight

Hi all,

Just wanted to share the cool parts I got for my Insight.

My mom recently went to Japan to visit relatives and I gave her a list of parts and a wad of money to buy for me. She enlisted the help of my cousin who is a big Honda fan. He went to the dealership in Fukuoka to get parts for me.

Here's what I got.

The right side visor with mirror and the IMA pinstripe stickers for the side.
I already have the visor installed. My girlfriend loves it, I think she uses it everytime we get in the car or stop at a light or close the window... And, I've only had it on for two days!

Here are some picks...
Part number.

Front w/ pocket for cards (original US visor for reference)

Back w/ vanity mirror

Pinstripes

I don't know if i'll add the pinstripe...

BTW, if you aren't lucky enough to have relatives in Japan you might be able to get Japanese parts by following this thread...

The Visor is ¥3400yen which equals about $30 US dollars.
