Found something rather interesting that I have not seen yet. USDM Bosch foglights for 88-89 Civics

Its never too late to start again. I sold my original 90' and spent all of the money on college. Eventually I decided to start over.

I said I don't want a title!
Re: 1989 Honda Civic Si USDM Restore
I won a set of almost mint foglights for my '91 hatch on ebay circa 2002 or so. The dumb@ss decided to send them in a box with almost zero packing inside of it, and they arrived with both of their lenses cracked. OEM Stanleys though. To this day I am still upset about it.
Also won an original Jackson Racing D16a6 camshaft about '02 as well, but the dude who sold it on ebay got in a wreck and died before he shipped it out. I got my money back, but it took a while.
To this day I have not been able to find either one again. I'd dearly love to have a nice set of OEM fogs for a 90-91 and that Jackson Racing camshaft is ultra-rare.

Oh and start over!! I am!
Also I feel like now is a time "now or never" to invest in the ED/EF chassis because as they say the 88-91 Civics are getting harder and harder to find.
Keep those matts for ever and never let them go. Pass them onto your kids and have them frame them to the wall above the fireplace. Maybe if Robb wasnt such a douche bag of a hater ppl would want to help him out...oops did i say that out loud? Funny how good things come to good people. Top dollar yo!!!!!

^^ good find..
How do you get these when people do a nationwide dealer searches and shows N/A ?
If I lived in the U.S., Id find BNIB accessories no doubt.. lol
Being in Canada sucks for this reason...

Re: 1989 Honda Civic Si USDM Restore
I too have done the nationwide searches including those for all floormats in all colors and still got the same answer. "Sorry discontinued" My local Honda dealer however showed me that all of the dealerships have a parts locator that shows all old stock "that has been updated" at all dealerships. This means one thing....All of the other Honda parts locations ARE NOT EVEN CHECKING!!!! This has been very frustrating because I have been on the phone with some locations and asked them to check the locator and they all Lied and said sorry I'm looking now and nothing....I am living proof that 90% of the parts guys are not helpful, I befriend the other 10%
