dont worry half the parts guys at honda wouldnt have a clue ... I've gotten into a couple arguments with parts guys when I've gone in needing a part.

Not in this country though......and it woulnd't have a JHM VIN if it was an SiR!

Try calling Eastwood Honda (in NSW) and ask for Steven :)

lol



Even before I got my Honda (SOHC) I new what SOHC and DOHC looked like guys



My point is why would a Honda Dealer get it wrong after using my VIN number



Strange days
