I found one online (Parts at Brasington, I think) for $150 or so. Expensive still, but nice to have. You'll probably want to check out walmart'* hardware department (or sears, or home depot) and for a couple of bucks get yourself the nozzles that attach to the air hose so you can use it on an air mattress, raft, beachball, or whatever. Otherwise, all you can do is inflate tires with it. I was really surprised also that it didn't come with jumper cables.

I bought my Bonne used aslo and it did not have the kit in it. I went to the dealer to see if they came in the 03 SSEi'*. I looked at one in the showroom and it did not have one. I would hope that they would not be an item you would hae to purchase seperate.

[..guess I was lucky when I just bought my '00 SSEi,...the trunk kit was there and it was all intact,looked like it was never even touched]

The trunk kit is now an extra cost option.
It'* just one of apparently many things (among others, the passenger compartment air filter element) that used to be included that now cost extra. would be interesting to see a list comparing new to a few years back.
O well. Progress??
