No one goes into GDD and expects a cordial, fair, or mature discussion about Hondas. It’s been that way for years. Couldn’t care less what they say.
I couldn’t agree with you more. I don’t go to gdd because it’s a shit show of I am right and you’re wrong comments. I only found the thread because I use the new post button , and didn’t look what I posted on . Either way muffinman is a dick and probably never got muffin without paying.

Never heard of this site.
Checked one of the part numbers and it says delivered to me Aug 13 - Sep 14. Crazy!
I’ve used them before so I can vouch for them. It’s basically a service in Japan that can source parts from the various car manufacturers or their dealerships. The normal turnaround time is roughly ten days or so IIRC. The pandemic is why the shipping is suspended right now. I’ve found several parts over the past couple of years available through Amayama that Acura show as discontinued. But as time goes on more parts on hand in Japan are drying up.
I second the suggestion that you go ahead and order them. If it turns out the parts are not available, which does happen, they’ll quickly refund you and cancel the order. They will update the status of your order throughout the process.
This was their reply: "Amayama Trading does not handle glass (windscreens, side and rear windows, or sunroofs) so we cannot assist with this inquiry."

A friend of mine reached out to Ryan at Autofair Honda and they told him they're not discontinued, just on back order. Hopefully this is the case and you'll be able to get some new ones from a dealer in a few weeks when they're back in stock...

Cris @ IRUNOEM, Carland Acura and all local parts places that I've contacted has them as discontinued. Hopefully that is true. If not, we will have to wait and see who is hoarding them all to sell them at ridiculous prices.

I’d been waiting for the backordered status on the passenger side glass to change before posting.
I talked to my parts dept last week and one of the managers ordered both sides just to see what would happen. They were showing on backorder with warehouse availability of the driver side on 6/9. The driver side has now shipped and may already be at my dealer. The passenger side as of yesterday is still on backorder with no date for availability - but not showing discontinued.

Acura of Memphis. The passenger side still has no date for availability. If you want to purchase the driver side from them, it should be in stock by now. Or wait til the other one (hopefully) arrives, if you want to get them. May want to wait til Monday to call; Saturdays are kinda crazy.
