You will see that they are not required to comply with all Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards, therefore you do not require a compliance letter. http://www.nhtsa.gov/cars/rules/import/faq%20site/pages/page2.html#Anchor-28852I am attaching a letter which states the version, production date and origin. Please do not hesitate to contact me again should you require further assistance. Have a great weekend!
