Vx parking lights by NISSAN? Wtf?

[etlsport]

yea i noticed that a while ago... have been on the lookout out for a nissan with lights that look the same.. still havent seen any... our rear side marker lights are the same as the ones from a mazda miata... id the front marker lenses under the nissan lights come from another car too

The VX uses LOTS of borowed parts. Think Trooper RS with a little mix of other stuff!

My guess is that Nissan, wether it be the car company or a plastics molding company with the same name, provides lenses to a large percentage of Japanese manufacturers.

Check out the tail light/turn sig lenses on American cars...many different brands say "Stanley" on them...

Just some food 4 thought...

Anyone else notice the Mitsubishi emblem on each brake caliper?

That's one reason the Japanese are so successful in the auto industry, they would rather cooperate in manufacturing and compete on design. Another reason why you see them actually borrow vehicles across brand-lines, like when Isuzu provided Honda with Rodeos in return for minivans. Interestingly enough, while Isuzu was exiting the US they worked an agreement with Subaru to complete production on remaining vehicles here in the US before they took over the plants. That's why there a lot of late-model Isuzus, mostly Troopers and Rodeos, that say "Assembled by Subaru".

Could you imagine if the American auto industry followed a similar philosophy? They wouldn't be in the last leg of the toilet race!
