So sad. Are people ever going to understand the difference between Made in Japan for export and Made for the Japanese Domestic Market aka JDM...

Also, why do people "not trust eBay", but would buy from some random site if somebody suggested it?

You guys are too much.

And just so EVERYONE knows... there are ZERO JDM parts for the tC b/c it has never, ever existed in Japan. As ScionicMan said, there are likely parts that are MADE in Japan and can be exported... but should NEVER be labelled JDM for something that there is no JDM market for.

Another favorite of mine is the JDM oil filler cap that says tC. I think ScionDad has the cap and it does look nice ... but I just don't think I could bring myself to buy one since they advertise it on eBay as JDM.
