If you're after some genuine OEM parts for your Honda, or another Japanese car, and it's not urgent, I highly recommend Amayama Trading (https://www.amayama.com/en).

I needed a new set of the 6mm capped nuts used for the valve cover along with a bolt used for the hydraulic autotensioner.

I know there's an abundance of 6mm cap nuts / dome nuts, they're available cheaply from plenty of sellers. However, the ones which Honda sell are different to most others as they are flanged. I've used non-flanged nuts in the past and oil can seep from underneath, The majority of those available elsewhere are not flanged, I struggled to find cheap alternatives to those supplied by Honda.

According to Lings, the RRP from Honda for the items I purchased are:

6mm cap nuts (90213-PH3-000) - £5.03 each, £50.30 for a set of 10 (drokking ridiculous).
Autotensioner bolt (90014-P13-003) - £8.89 each, £17.78 for two (I wasn't sure how many were required, so bought two for good measure).
Total: £68.08.

From Amayama trading, the prices were:
6mm cap nuts (90213-PH3-000) - £1.07 each, £10.70 for a set of 10.
Autotensioner bolt (90014-P13-003) - £1.61 each, £3.22 for two.
Shipping price (from Japan) - £6.55.
Total: £20.47.

That's a saving of £47.61.

I ordered the parts on 27/12/20 and they arrived sooner than I expected on 22/01/2021, so arrived within 1 month.

Due to Brexit, I was worried that I might be hit with some sort of import duty taxes, but there were no additional charges whatsoever.

If I ever needs any more Honda parts and don't need them straight away, I'll have no hesitation to order from them again.

fair play just been looking at this, the list of parts available is outstanding

looks like a proper winner for parts if we struggle here and dont want to pay Honda prices

I thought Amayama was a well-known site on the forum so I didn't mention them. I have been ordering from them since 2010, never had a single issue. Everything is well packed, great prices and fast shipping. As a bonus, EU has a trade deal with Japan for automotive parts so you only pay VAT and no import fees.

I wasn't aware of them until i read this post, prices are amazing and shipping not bad either, i have ordered 2 x alternator bearings, one of which is on back order but prices are so good for genuine parts i said ill continue with the order, so may not be until end of next month until i receive them...

I ordered some bits from them on the weekend. They were able to get parts that Honda show as no longer available.

Hopefully that's real and not their catalogue being out of date

Unfortunately, they've come back as out-of-stock and refunded my payment.

Looks like front and rear window seals are now no longer available.
