By the way, genuine Honda OEM part numbers will be in this format:
xxxxx-xxx-xxx
where the first five positions are numbers, the next three will be two
letters and a number (or 3 letters), and the final three are usually
three numbers, or one letter and two numbers.
Examples:
15400-PLM-A02
22910-SK7-A02
90173-SR3-003
