Default Where to buy accessories?

Does anyone know where I can buy any or all of the below accessories.

These prices are from H and A www.handa-accessories.com/s2000.html, but i have had no luck getting through to them... I have left phone messages and sent them e-mail, but no response...

So any recommendations would be helpful. I

Try sending a PM to Trevor. His screenname is TAllen. Just search for him and send him a PM. He might be on vacation or something.

Or, even easier, just order the stuff from Trevor. I have ordered from his 4 times and received my order in 3-4 days every time. I think he is basically a one-man shop, so he is always behind on email and phone calls...but he ships on time, which is what counts.

I don't think you are going to be able to beat his prices.

I won't buy from anyone other than Trevor (H and A). I've never had a response issue though, not sure why some people report this and others have never had a problem.

I ordered a bunch of accessories from HandA last Wed. and the box arrived on Friday with exactly the items I specified, normal UPS. I'm very satisfied with HandA's service.

I have also ordered a few things from Trevor without any problems (front chin spoiler, two batches of oil filters and washers, and my pull-n-go S2000). Delivery has always been quick. I just ordered directly from their website.

first of all, call around for competitive pricing... I only order from companies / people that I can talk to... I tried patronizing our sponsors before but it was too much trouble and I never got through... try calling Mechanicsville Honda @ 1-800-531-2756 and give them your best price, and they're probably going to beat it.

As far as the items, here's my 2 cents (IN CAPS):

6.5" Co-Axial Speaker Upgrade $ 46.80 - SKIP THESE BS SPEAKERS AND PICK UP ANY DECENT 2 OR 3 WAY SONY, KENWOOD, OR ALPINE SPEAKER AT YOUR LOCAL CIRCUIT CITY OR BEST BUY... IF YOU'RE GOING TO GO THROUGH THE TROUBLE OF TAKING APART YOUR SPEAKERS, REPLACE THEM WITH A DECENT SET...

Cargo Net - trunk mount $ 27.60 - IF YOU NEED IT

2002 style footrest $ 68.72 - DON'T KNOW MUCH ABOUT IT...

Vehicle Dust Cover $ 166.80 - IF YOU NEED IT, BUT LOOK AROUND FOR A USED ONE. I BOUGHT ON E USED FOR $100 AND WAS NEVER USED BEFORE. THERE'S ONE ON E-BAY RIGHT NOW THAT YOU CAN GET A DEAL ON.

Trunk Spoiler $ 346.80 - CALL MECHANICSVILLE HONDA AND GET THEM TO BEAT THE PRICE. I THINK IT COMPLETES THE LOOK OF THE CAR.

Touch Up Paint $ 3.00 - CALL MECHANICSVILLE HONDA AND GET THEM TO BEAT THE PRICE.

S2000 Hat $ 10.19 - ARE YOU BALDING ? JUST KIDDING...

Black Floor Mats $ 43.20 - HOLD OUT FOR EITHER THE MUZMATS OR THE NEW ONES THAT RICK HESEL IS IN THE WORKS FOR PRODUCING/SELLING.

Front Under Spoiler $ 358.80 - CALL MECHANICSVILLE HONDA AND GET THEM TO BEAT THE PRICE. I DID LAST MONTH AND JUST PUT IT ON 2 WEEKS AGO. LOOKS GREAT, JUST BE CAREFUL WITH STEEP DRIVEWAYS AND MAMMOTH SPEEDBUMPS.


THE INSTALLATION FOR ALL OF THESE ITEMS (WITH A SMALL EXCEPTION OF THE REAR SPOILER) IS A BREEZE... BUT LOOK AROUND AND HAVE FUN...

you might want to try TAllen's group buy, which ends tonight (for the front spoiler). you can find the front and rear spoiler at a discount here .

trevor's place always ships their stuff out right away. you shouldn't be dissapointed.

You can still get a pair of Polk EX-602a coaxial speakers from Crutchfield for $79.95 (I highly recommend them). I bought mine for $99 before Polk introduced the newer model which incorporates adjustable tweeters. They sound much better than the stock paper speakers (much more bass and midrange with crisp, but not harsh, highs) and are more effecient so they play louder at the same volume setting.

They are drop-in replacements and Crutchfield includes the plug-in wiring adapters so you don't have to cut, splice, or solder anything.

The new ones are the EX365s right? I need to research audio. I love heavy metal and the S2000 speakers don't play it well at all. Any recommendation on sound upgrades beyond this? Subs?
