Umm...what car and what exactly are you looking for. Judging by your use of "bonnet" I'm assuming your in the UK or europe.

There's a couple websites for mail-order parts that can operate by your VIN.
...like www.hondaautomotiveparts.com
However, it would probably choke onyour VIN since it's not a USA-spec car.

You might have some luck by going there & entering your car's information (year, model, trim, etc.) rather than the VIN. But I'm not sure if that's 100% reliable.

I imagine a USA 1995 Accord has the same basic engine with different displacement. So you'd be OK with an alternator belt or valve cover, but not OK with pistons or crankshaft. Maybe if we knew what stuff you're looking for...

@jimblake: to be specific, I am looking for:
-rocker cover gasket
-breaks both rear and front
-bypass hose
-bottom radiator hose
-fuel filter
-black rims and tyres (i know they are universal and not under bonnet)

and the list goes on...

I've no way to be sure, but it seems like all those parts would be the same. That place I linked is in USA, & shipping to Perth aint gonna be cheap. I don't know what to suggest if you can't find parts places down there that can look stuff up correctly.

Hmmm I just tried it and it works. I don't know what's the deal; maybe their site was down for a bit?
It's just a Honda dealer in USA, but they have the parts catalog on-line so you can look stuff up.
