JDM reel parts

[Bellaireroad]

Hello,
Where is a good place to order parts for JDM reels?  I have ordered from PLAT in the past, but my last order was lost in shipping, and customer service has not been very helpful.  These are parts for Diawa reels, and USA Diawa does not stock parts for JDM reels,  Thanks

i've never found a good solution to this.  the schematics for jdm reels are in japanese and are useless unless you speak the language (which i don't).  if you had a jdm and a similar us reel apart, you could match the parts, but here is otherwise just no way to figure it out without help from the manufacturer.  that's the danger of buying jdm.

these folks may have scant older parts:

name your EXACT model (photos help)
someone may know US-equivalent, close model on same platform, etc.

Check the manufacturers websites for Australia.  We get some of the Japanese models that don't make it to the US.
Cheers
