What the hell?
Seriously?

That is truly staggering!

Thanks for the chassis number, I'll see if that helps from this end.

Honest to God mate. Utterly infuriating but predictable.

If it's a car that's not currently on sale they behave like it never existed.

I hope you'll be able to track the parts down all the same.

I used to use Steels Honda for all the parts needed from the DC5 to my Bb1 and Bb4 until the boss told them no more international

David Johnson in the parts dept is always more than helpful even if it's just an general Q..
Just if anyone needs to get past some of the drones that usually line up on the phone to not help.

Thank you @batkosio +rep

Honda access confirms they were an option, too.

Only an option, and I think they won`t be available anymore, even in Japan.

Part number 08F21-SS0-000
On the Honda UK system but no record of being sold.
Checked on the central Honda parts system, discontinued and no dead stock.

Bummer. Someone, somewhere, has a stash of these laying in the corner of a warehouse.

Not in a Honda warehouse - the dead stock search would have turned that up.
