Good morning friends!
I apologize if this has been asked on countless of occasions, but I honestly DID try and use the search feature to look through older posts, and I just could not find what I was looking for, so I am hoping that someone here may be able to help...
My i-MiEV is a US model 2016 ES, and there are a few trim pieces that THE IDIOTIC, MORONIC, RIDICULOUS STUPID Dent Doctor BROKE when lifting a small dent on the roof of my car, which happened apparently in shipping the car from Florida to me here in Arkansas. When removing the headliner they completely broke both clips in the front that hold up the headliner and hold the sun visors in place, and then they broke some of the small headliner retaining push-clips in the back over the hatchback entry.
I was LIVID of course - my car was pristine, and I had used them many many times on much more expensive cars with perfect results. I have learned... perhaps the dent wasn't worth fixing, but you know how that goes... "I" knew it was there.... LOL!
SO, I have been search high and low (and I will even gladly buy whatever is needed) to find an OEM Parts Manual for this car. I know that some of these things may need to be ordered from Japan, etc. but when I search online (and I have been searching for almost a week now) I always come up short, or I come up with multiple part numbers for the same thing.
Does anyone know where I can buy/access/subscribe to an OEM parts manual for this car, so that I can see proper tear-downs and OEM parts that I can reorder correctly? I would appreciate very much any information you have, and as always I thank you very much in advance for your help!
Warmest regards,
Michael
