That's pretty cool lol
That says "Kousai"… probably not someone who built your car. It is not a common first or last name. The Internet says he was a Buddhist monk. I wonder what that's all about.
Also, directly translated it says something along the lines of "light finished" which is not something someone would usually write in Japan. Perhaps it's a car manufacturer thing, or a Honda thing?

Better news than I got on the writing on my heads - census was they were rebuilt.
Wish I had a monks name on my heads.

I've encountered these inscriptions quite a few times, under dashboards and in panels.
I always assumed something written by quality control

yeap it the guys building it wrote everywhere they took pride in their work. I have found it on almost everything and more than one on the same item
Do you guys have any pictures? I'm curious to read what else they write.
pride of job well done
I found K-- in my 1991 tunnel , left side . Do not remember the rest , just the K . I assumed it was someone's initials . I also saw the same initials in a tunnel on a recent forum picture .

I also confirmed it states "Light Finished". I am thinking this is a QA step during the hand built process, so the next guy can start his phase of the build, JMO.

Larry, you read Japanese???
I am 100% sure I have never heard or read this combination of words in a sentence before.
Why does it sound so, so wrong? :biggrin:
I wonder if Kaz would know...

It actually means "Man who goes to bed with itchy butt, wakes up with stinky finger"
Thanks for all the info. So, my car has the ivory interior. I'm guessing now that the writing refers to the interior color!
Sorry, I should have been more specific. By "light finished," it means light as in illumination, not light in color.
These are the initials I found in my 1991 red -black . KAE
Interesting. Japanese people usually don't have middle names, so I wonder whose initials those are.
