Can you id these old school bits?

I was digging in my parts room and found a box with some old school parts in it. I had picked these up a few years ago when 1st came back to Japan.

I think this might be from a Capella?


RX-3 front grill badge?


RX-3 horn cover?

google just opened street view in Thailand a couple weeks ago. When I used to live there, there was a shop that always had some old school cars forsale.
They have this one parked out front, any idea what it is? LOL and why did they blur out the wheels...

yes, these are the front fender badges of RX-2/Capella. They go between the wheel and the door.

that's a RX-2 speedo guage (may also fit R100, RX-3), and RX-2/Capella glove box door (probably from asia or australia), and those are RX-2/R100 tail lights, north american spec. The RX-2 clock is square IIRC, so I don't think that clock is from an RX-2.
