steven, hmm it shouldn't really matter. I'm sure you're able to just order the fascia panel for it. Is yours the panel with the two knobs on either side of the headunit? Cos if so, that's the same as mine. I'm still considering buying the fascia panel, either through import or just going to Hong Kong myself and nab one there. Not sure yet, there is goneauto.com but apparently their prices are really dodgy and they change depending on when you ask them. I think Vivid gave me a quote a while back for like $120AUS inc. shipment which is around £75, so I dunno if he'll still do it. Btw vivid, thanks for the bracket link |

Hi kentris yeah mines the same as yours the two dials either side!!! i m just got quotes aswell from Goneauto.com and they quoted $760 HKD and $250 HKD for the unit and pocket excluding P&P!? not sure if that is a good deal? but im with you im also considering going back to Hong Kong and buying it myself! but it may not happen until Oct/Nov (dunno if i can wait that long ) ;p has anyone bought from goneauto.com are they any good?  steve ps i think $120AUS is to buy and send to Australia and i think you and I have to add more to send to UK. vividjazz said prob another $60Aus (can you confirm vividjazz?) so altogether is about $180Aus and add any taxes so dont send through dhl, tnt etc(hint hint) youll def be hit with taxes and import duties if you use regular post its hit or miss depending on the day it arrives in customs |

Hmm $760HKD, I was given the same price about 2 months back.
At current rate of 13.8HKD to £1, it's lookin for about £55 for the fascia panel and £18 for the pocket.

stevenkk why wouldn't the 05 facelifted one fit your Jazz. The only thing that could be different is the colour but here in oz the colour between the 2 models was only a very minor difference. If you look closely at the picture of my double DIN its not exactly the same colour but very close and funnily enough its not an exact colour match for the 05 either and this is the genuine Honda part too. Honda Thailand has 2 colours only the darker one matches the interiors of the Australian Jazz. If you look on the Thai Honda website www.jazzlife.com you'll see the lighter interior on their cheaper Jazz. |

hi vividjazz you know what i got confused after reading your last post it was because of auto climate control in the jazz se sport the dials were completely different and thus i assummed the facelifted model were all the same !!! but it is only really different cos of climate controll i have had the pleasure of driving a SE sport for 1 week because my dealer scratch my new car on delivery so they sent the replacement for me to use until they repainted it again!!!! so i could probably buy the satnav option and fit in my car!!!! steve steve |

No climate control on the Australian Jazzes (made in Japan) or on the Thai ones so all dials. Forgot that there is climate control with totally different facia around.
I'd say go to another dealer but if they are like here they are all on the same flat line level.

If your ordering the facia don't forget the brackets which are each seperate parts and not included.
