Sludgeroo Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 Do any of you fine gentlemen know where to find these? Like the ones ive seen on Reuben's black gt-b? Any help would be greatly appreciated as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camroncamera Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 They are a pain in the arse to find, even though I believe they were available domestically in the US in the early years of the Gen 2's. I recently saw a stock-looking 95 wagon on the road with these, it seems unlikely to me that they were going for the JDM look. If the language barrier is the biggest problem getting JDM items from Japan, you could get in touch with hansvonaxion, he exports all sorts of cool JDM stuffs from Japan to USA and elsewhere. Also check out the UK because they import JDM cars all the time - UKLegacy.com forum classifieds and ebay.co.uk. There was a rumor of a shop in the UK that would sell them brand new as of a year or two ago, but I was unable to get anywhere with that (I think they closed down). NZ is one more idea, try http://www.strongforsubaru.com/home.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted June 8, 2012 Share Posted June 8, 2012 keeping an eye out on ebay (search: jdm legacy) is going to be your best bet they pop up on rpmgarage.com often too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stasis Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Do you mean the monsoons? If so they're an absolute pig to get in NZ without damage to them. You can get the older style horrible purple looking ones easily though, the newer darker on later gtb's (96 onwards) are much harder to get :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansvonaxion Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Considering they're on just about every Japanese car they should be easy to find used but they aren't. Did find a set not long ago and wanted them for my own car but was too slow and missed out. So if I ever find more ill grab them first, ask questions later. Like camroncamera I remember someone in the uk finding a source for new ones at a good price but can't remember the details, or hang on, maybe it was from a dealer in the US? Might be worth asking. Japanparts.com has them new for $270 plus shipping etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zues Marine Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 yeah those are a hot commodity, i'll def. take one.. most get broken on the way thru shipping ive been hearing.. much like the center light garnishes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LegacyLou Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 You will pay thought the nose for shipping from Japan, due to oversize package. Its a one piece visor.
