My classic shares the same electric window buttons/switches as a Nissan Primera.

My brother has an Aston Martin DB7 Convertible .... I have a 16 year old MX5 as a toy.

Imagine how happy he was to discover that my Inner Door Handles were the same as his!!

I guess that the part from Aston Martin would be about 50 times the cost of the very same item from Mazda!!

I think the brake pads are compatible but I'm not sure they are the same per se?

Aston were a bit more hard up back in those days weren't they though before the DB9?

Even Jag had to recently use an ariel from a old Ford Cortina (according to Clarkson).

I think the Scoob 'lock doors' button is also on my Skyline....will have to check.

Funny Subaru borrowing of other Jap car-makers.

I think Brembo from 350Z will fit Subaru STi 05 onward as well.
