Default Guys.. Found something interesting..

Guys, just a little story...I work at honda and today when I was bored, I was looking at my Hamp's oil filter (green color) and I suddenly realize one thing. It is simliar to the one we use on the Honda Insight. So I went into parts and ask for one to take a look.

I spent 10 mins using flash light... checking inside and out and found out they are 99% the same oil filter. the 1% is not sure haha

I will try to take pics tomorrow if I remember.


Just something to share.

I thought the HAMP one was the same as the JDM Honda oil filter. Just rebadged and repriced.
