It's just two pins holding it on, I used to pull them when I would round up Silvia headlight sets BITD. I could pull one for you but it would not be cheap. All the legwork to find the junk car and the gas I would burn up doing it is at a premium. I would do it for $100, and I am not joking either.

No dumber than a JDM dash clock or clear celica corner lights; all things I have found myself crawling over junk cars looking for because some guy stateside wants it and is willing to pay.

Unlike many people here, I don't give a crap why you want something. I tend not to judge people trying to give me money. Something that frustrates me about the Japanese; seems like they always want to know why I want something. WTF do you care, take my money and gimme! Put the money on the wood and you just became a "valued customer".

Hmm try a JDM importer if you really want one. They may laugh and tell you know or they may sell you one under the condition you wont use it on your car.

i agree with tms that it doesn't really matter why you want it, but my curiosity is getting the better of me. why do you want it? it'd be cool if i got one for free in a junkyard or something, and i'd put it on my toolbox. i wouldn't pay for one or look for one though.

go to Venus Auto in Sacramento and grab one off of their front clips when they aren't looking. Or just buy something from there and ask if you can get that too.

thats really funny you mention that. I bought 98 Silvia front seats off them. with it i got a bag. In the bag was some JDM parking lot/garage sticker/the vin plate to the car the seats were in/Green silvia S hood badge/silvia rear badge.

And i just ordered a Rb25 transmission harness. hoping to get a doggie bag with this too.

1. Buy tin foil2. layer that $hit3. trace and cut out from usdm4. take pencil to copy everything but the motor.5. Flip over new firewall vin plate over and carve SR20DET into it. 6. ???7. Profit

but seriously, Write an email to big bussniess's like jhot/FRsport/etc. ask if they have any laying around and how much

No but I'm serious if he buys a SR20DET from them he will get the VIN tag, just tell them what you want PS13 or RPS13/KRPS13.

I got my front conversion from them, in a gigantic wood crate, they must of used like 5 miles of bubble wrap, lol. And got a interior door handle trim from this mess.

I wish I could score some badges, but my R32 clip made that up for it, got owners manuals registration, looks like title, and parking permit, and some other weird thing, oh "JDM tite" warning flair for when your car brakes down haha.

Okay back on topic.
