    The red dragon needs your help

    My 1986 civic is affectionately referred to as the red dragon by my friends. This is the first Honda I have ever owned and I simply cannot believe how mechanically incredible this car is. I have genuine love for Hondas having found this car. I have two queries.
    1. Does anyone know officially the model of this civic? It is a 3 door hatch, the VIN is JHM AAH53205201320.
    2. I need to replace the indicator/headlight switch as it broke off. I am having trouble finding a replacement. Does anyone know where I might be able to find a place that sells after market parts or alternatively would that be impossible given the age of the car?
    FYI I am based in Adelaide and am willing to have the switch fixed and put back on if that is even possible.
    Any help much appreciated. I cannot let the dragon die.

    There's a place in New Zealand that ships world wide that get a lot of odd jdm cars and seem to deal with a lot of Hondas aswell.
    It's called junkuyardo https://www.facebook.com/jankuyado/

    If not try boss wrecking in qld.. They specialise in Hondas, you will see a lot of uncommon Hondas like wagovans and crxs I. Their yard.. Also lento of dc4 tegs and ek civics.

    Does the 1988/89 civic probably use the same indicator switch setup? I have found an 88/89 setup for sale.

    88/89 are pre facelift ed/ef so it is likely not the same part.

    I think I am in trouble. I cannot find a replacement part and it cannot be fixed. The Car has only done 150,000kms and runs like a dream but I don't see any other solution but to sell it for part since it's not road worthy without an indicator stalk.

    Did you call the places I showed you?

    There will be a solution.

    I suspect a crx or civic shuttle indicator stalk from the same generation may be the same part..

    Don't quote me in it though

    I did call the places you suggested with no luck. I am in contact with the guy form Jankuyado and he is still looking into it for me but I am concerned that he won't have what I am after. I might ask him about alternative options.
