Here is the criteria for the VIN to determine if it is indeed a 2004.5:

Production at Oppama Plant (T) (to be discontinued at the end of April 2004)
For Coupe models
JN1AZ34D*4T160001
JN1AZ34E*4T060001

D*4T153673
Production Date: 10/2003

I don't know how to read the chart. I have a knee pad on the pass side.

Thx!

 

I'm gonna think if you're production date is 10/2003, there's no way it is a 2004.5. The .5 in any car means it's "half-way" through that model year. Whether it's actually half-way or not.

 

yes but you must remember production for the new model year starts much earlier in the year before.

 

What about the driver's side? Do you still have the original owner's manual? The 04.5 models are revised and it states so on the cover, something like revised for April-later 04s or someshit like that.

 

I dont have the manual unfortunately, I do however have a knee pad on both the drivers and passengers sides

 

The answer is the same as for your other thread...
