Default To All the JDM fans, I have a question??

I am wondering if any model civic, 92-95 civic in Japan came with a blank for their passanger mirror. I have seen the USDM civics have a blank instead of a passanger mirror, but I am not sure about the JDM civics. If they did come with a blank in Japan where would I be able to get such a thing, since the Japanese blank would be for the USDM driver side.

Thanks a lot, please help me out.

I think all 92-95 JDM Civics came with a passenger's side mirror. They didn't have "models" like ours, such as the CX, DX, VX, etc. Here in the States, I think it's a dealer option...

???
as for the mirror, its a pretty stupid thing to ask for, but all japanesse civics would have a "passenger" side mirror, since they are right-hand drive.
US passenger side mirror=japan's driver side mirror

To everyone making fun of him:

He's probably building a drag car which won't have mirrors.

Hence he can get a USDM pass side plate to cover where the mirror was.

All he is looking for is the JDM pass side (USDM driver's side) plate to fill the area where the mirror was.

i am not sure if this is for the street or not, but if it is, seems a little bit backwards to your car's theme. your cage is screaming safety, but to soley rely on the interior rear-view mirror for daily driving doesn't really conjour up any thoughts of safety.

if this is a track(drag) car, however, it makes perfect sense.

i'm sure that with a lil' bit of motivation along with some trial and error, you could heat up a small piece of plastic and bend the edges to the point that it is roughly the equivalent of a stock block off plate.

How much I love coments like these on this board. Who the f**c do you think you people are???? I ask a simple question and you turn it into some bashing scenario. Bunch of looser that's all I have to say. Anyways to all those that answer and stoode up for me THANK YOU, that is what Honda-tech is all about, exchange of information, and not a bashing contest.

To answer your question in regards to why I am looking for this peace. I came upon a set of road racing mirrors that I want to install and that is whay I need the other side blind, so I can utelize them as a fixtures. I hate all this crap that you have to go through with the Spoon mirrors which are not made for USDM cars, so I decided to make my own setup. Who ever can help me locate that peace I would be greatly thankfull. I will post a picture of what I am talking about later.
