I saw a pre-99 Ody and it had silver poles on the outer edges of the right and left hood. They were about 12-15 inches in height and had an encircled H at the top. The pole was somewhat skinny. Does anyone know where I can get these? I checked the Honda aftermarket sites and didn't see anything. I presume they are parking guides. I am very nervous about driving this van after driving a civic for so long.

Thanks.

I'm not sure who sells them. They've been using them on the Japanese luxury cars ( i.e. Toyota Crown,etc.) since way back. So I pressume you can find them in Japan.
Also, our big trucks at work have them ! You could check the truck/full-size van/RV accessory places.

Don't be nervous. Just drive it like a Civic especially when cornering and hitting VTEC.

Dang. Looks like they're even retractible. Now I want a pair...

The hood pole on the Japanese site shows it in the front. I could use that one to. The Ody parks in the same parking lot at work and I staked it out until the owner drove up and I asked her where she got them. Taiwan. They were on each side of the van probably clipped under the hood.
