Nice, first thing i noticed when i got my new cb. I like the JHM one better lol

yeah, most of the 1HG parts were built by american manufacturers, while a JHM car will have japan-sourced parts. to be honest i prefer the JHM, that stock matted texture on the black plastic dash pieces is much smoother, the clock has a larger font, and just other various differences that youd probably only be able to notice them when comparing side by side... im on my 6th cb7 (a 1HG), but most of the dash parts are still the original parts ive been transferring over since my first JHM... the steering wheel, clock, dash bezel and buttons, etc...

an easy way to spot the difference in the clocks is the external flip door, itll either say BORG USA in the corner, or NS (for Nippon-Seiki)... NS are much nicer

Good info

i always wondered if anybody else really noticed... an easy way to spot the difference in the clocks is the external flip door, itll either say BORG USA in the corner, or NS (for Nippon-Seiki)... NS are much nicer
