Regarding Some Parts in the Service Manuals

Looking at parts manual from different sources, I am questioning if the parts mentioned are in all NSXs ...... Specifically:

In the 1991 manual, Body section, page 20-52: http://www.nsxprime.com/FAQ/Reference/1991_svcman/1991servman.pdf

There are supposed to be two clips on the left fender that hold the hood cable. I don't see this in any other parts manual from the Wiki links when searching for left fender (for RHD I would think the same applies as those two holes are in both fenders). Are these clips actually in all models or later models dropped it? Do you have them in yours?

On page 20-51 of the same 1991 manual, lower left image shows the washer hose goes around the hood hinge on the outside with what appears to be a clamp (perhaps #18? in the other link below -not the one on top that goes between the hood the and hinge's tip). The larger picture shows the hose going inside the hinge but I suspect that is to simplify the visual ..... Is this clamp available in all models and does the tubing work from the outside of the hinge without cramping as the hood closes?

The washer tubing shows a part #5 in the picture but no description in the list. What is part #5? Is that a cap looking item under the cowl attached to the washer tube (which I have but where does it connect or do)?

TIA.

Drew, I did use the link hosted by Dali; in fact I entered different model years and they all showed the same pics.

Only the 1991 manual referenced shows the clips for the hood cable (perhaps other years will too). It is not #24; the two clips are right where the cable goes inside the fender - page 20-52.

Regarding #5 being a grommet, makes sense ..... but to do what? I actually pried to look under the cowl cover a bit - after taking some of the clips - but didn't see any particular area where it would go!
 
Regarding this grommet on the windshield washer line under the cowel, does anyone know where it is supposed to attach? It has an odd opening.

PS: I am guessing perhaps it is attached to one of the three suspension bolts; I have the Comptech suspension so perhaps during install that was left out?

Yes it sits on one of the 3 top strut nuts. Just presses on. :smile:
