2004 Honda Inspire, our Honda Accord?

I was searching around, and found Honda Japan and their Inspire page. It is identical to our Honda Accord. When did our Honda Accord become Japan's Inspire?

http://www.honda.co.jp/INSPIRE/
http://www.motormagazinesha.co.jp/me...003_06/030619/

Does anyone know if there are any accesories for the Inspire, sold in Japan that would fit our CLs (besides the accesories I have seen for the TLs in the states)? I have seen some footwell lighting, but know of any other accesories?

Oldschool - DON"T HATE!!! Did not know it was common knowledge-

In any event, I am looking for information on where I can find our version Acura TL - Honda Inspire Accesories. I don't know what will be comptatible, but I'm wondering what is available in Japan.

Actually, that's not oldschool news... the previous Inspire (up until 2003) was Japan's TL... now it looks like the Accord. Strange they changed it like that.

They're all screwed up lately...haha.

They redesign the 2004 Inspire to look like the U.S. Accord after the 2001-2003 looked like the TL..... and in Japan and Europe the Accord looks like our TSX.....
