## Stylish Kei Trucks for Both Work and Play
The Cab, newly released on December 12, 2022, received numerous requests from users who desired parts for the original Porter Cab look. We reviewed the front panel and bumper sections, made specification changes, and newly developed them to be more compliant with vehicle inspections. We believe this brings it closer to the retro atmosphere of the Mazda Porter Cab (1969-1989). In addition to the existing Cab, we are now announcing and releasing the Porter front mask kit, rear panel kit, full kit, and complete car.
## Achieving "Cute" Kei Trucks with Cab and Porter
In addition to the Mazda Porter Cab-look Cab, which has been purchased by many, we have added the original Gachapin-look Porter model. Kei trucks are selling well in the current situation where many businesses, such as shops that want to express their individuality, mobile vendors, pet shops, florists, and boutiques, use kei trucks. However, due to OEM arrangements, the number of available models has decreased, and we believe there are few vehicles that suit such businesses. General users are also likely to have demands for cute cars that match their hobbies, tastes, DIY projects, camping, home gardening, and camper van conversions.
## Easy-to-Assemble Component Structure
The material is FRP (fiberglass, unpainted). The components include a front mask, light bezels, front bumper, 5-inch headlights, turn signals, side markers, rear panel, tail lenses, reflectors, and garnish. It is designed to be relatively easy to assemble.
The garnish is not included with the Porter (round bezel) kit.
## Regarding Vehicle Inspection
We have improved and changed specifications to be more compliant with vehicle inspections. When the front kit was installed, the vehicle was brought to the Light Motor Vehicle Inspection Organization Saitama Office Tokorozawa Branch, and the vehicle inspection was renewed without any problems. If both the front kit and rear kit are installed, we believe that the vehicle inspection can be renewed without problems by removing the front bumper and attaching the license plate directly to the front mask. However, there are reports that the judgment may differ depending on the prefecture of the inspection organization. Please be sure to keep the removed tail lamps.
## Compatible Models for Cab Kit and Porter Kit
Suzuki Carry Trucks (model DA16T) produced by Suzuki Motor Corporation after August 23, 2013, and vehicles produced as OEMs during that period, are compatible. However, we have not conducted compatibility tests for all models ourselves, but have made this judgment based on assembly situations from our past sales destinations.
- Mazda: Scrum Truck (Model: DG16T)
- Nissan: NT100 Clipper (Model: DR16T)
- Mitsubishi: Minicab Truck (Model: DS16T)
Vehicles of the Suzuki Carry that underwent a model change after January 23, 2026, are currently not compatible as installation has not yet been confirmed. We plan to develop models that will be compatible with new vehicles in the future.
