The bags were also used in Datsun 1200 B110), PL521, and some station wagons with rear window washers.

Hard to tell from the picture, but I believe it’s a generic Mitsuba (not Mitsubishi). Basically an older generic replacement bag. Still available with the same description but no longer has a brand name attached and are still widely available online. A great and functional alternative to their expensive kangaroo counterpart.

Follow up question if you guys don’t mind, but What’s the going price for a used Kangaroo bag in good condition ?

I think brand new they’re around $400.00

For a used version, I’d hypothesize the going rate could be $50-150 depending on the condition.

Yep, they’ve gotten pretty expensive! But they really do finish off the engine compartment rather nicely. Even at $418.00, I think we should consider ourselves fortunate that they’re still somewhat available.
