Like a cats bum from my interpretation of that pic

lol mik - i knew you would come up with something funny eventually... good on you for persisting

dd - thought you may be the one to enlighten us on if the monsoon shields were factory?

Window rain shields were not factory or dealer equipment in Japan. Is that what a monsoon shield is???

USDM 1200s were the most unique as they had to comply with unique USA safety regs (e.g. larger side reflectors and fire-resistant interior materials.).

Fire resistant interior???? I don't see how that's going to save you in a 1200 on fire!

Yeh i have parkers that all all amber (no Parker)
Jap ones don't have a Parker like aus?
Obviously JDM means stock there and it has been abused and lost it's meaning.
Yet your not going to sit with a simpleton and explain to them what shakotan/boso style is.
It's easier to just say yeh make the car is Jap/JDM.
Lot of things they have in evey car model that we never receive :/

JDM B110s and B210s did not have any amber lenses, just like USA -- yellow were against regulations.

EDIT: USA 1200s do have an orange side lamp, not no amber on the front or rear. JDM lamps have an extra very small bulb that doesn't exist in USA or AUS models. See Lighting System

It's to protect the driver of the Japanese car from the burning American made car next to it... One would assume.

Old style vinyl can burn hot when touched by open flame. The late USA fabrics would not do this. They were resistant to fire, not fire-proof.

That is why when our cars catch on fire, we have time to get out of them in most cases.

They are British cars I think you are talking about don, they had bad elecs- American cars just catch fire for no reason, or shooting the "gas tank" or so the movies tell me.

JDM list of options is at Options, scroll down to section "Japan"

Too bad we have no list of standard equipment.
