    Are you talking about body emblems...
    ( as in replacing de-badged stuff)

    ...or the VX grill emblem?

    Isuzuparts.com is not a source of parts for the VX anymore.

    the parts i ordered that they no longer carry are the 4 door grommets for the back door that hold on the door panel. And I order the four seat levers that are able to lean the seats forward for entry into the rear seats. None of which they carry or will ever carry again :/

    A member (& former owner) sells replacement hardware for the spare tire cover that replaces those grommets:

    Yeah Ive been thinking of looking for the big Isuzu emblem for the back. I keep going back and forth about it. But then again I cant find anybody who sales the damn thing. But yes I would like to get the VX emblem for the grill.

    Almost coming to the end of 2 weeks of doing driving cycles and still cant get the EVAP or O2 Heater sensor to read "Ready". Im just about ready to drive my beautiful VX off a F***ing cliff. :/ Cant register it until I get in inspected in the state of Texas

    For the seat parts try Recaro. For an option for rear door "ISUZU" badge you could use one from a medium duty Isuzu truck. Should be able to get those at one of the dealers.

    I've been doing this driving cycle everyday for two weeks now. There's no way I can be doing it properly. This is absolutely insane. In other news thanks to JoFotoz. The grommets to my back door came in and now the door is looking great with the panel on it. I'd post a picture but I'm using an iphone at a gas station checking the computer with a handheld obd2 computer. Please does someone have an answer for these ridiculous drive cycles?

    I'm almost certain due to these drive cycles that my VX is prettiest POS I've ever seen. :/

    We first discussed driving cycles on 7/24/14, and today is 8/1/14, so you mean "a" week instead of "2" weeks

    If the evap sensor isn't ready by now, it's a possibility that it isn't connected, or that it needs to be replaced. The part is less than $20.

    And looking at your original post, you indicated the 02 sensor as well as evap heater sensor. There are 4 02 sensors. Did you check all 4 to make sure they're all connected?
