Insight Parts Interchange List & Junkyard Mods
As sale of new parts are discontinued, cars are scrapped, and used parts become rarer every day, I thought it important to resurrect this topic.
The purpose of this thread is to document alternate parts interchangeability so that we can find parts that we would not have thought of otherwise. (For example the Accord door handles)
We have discussed it previously (there is a 10 year old thread, but that title was "Honda parts only"; and the last time I posted this list it was hard to find under the Accord Door Handle title). Again, credit to Mathemaddicts.
If you know of another part, add to the list.
