I have a 1973 240z that the seat belts has been removed, previous owner took them out to install padding and carpets which he glued them down. I do not want to pull up the carpet to locate the bolt holes, can anybody provide me with pics of your seat belts locations where that are bolted in? The pockets for the seat belt retractors are also padded and carpeted over, I do not have any of the belts or retractors, planning on purchasing all new belts assy. Any help will be appreciated.

Can anyone tell me what years and model Zs this plastic trim panel is compatible with? I had the piece listed for a 260z and 280z but was told it doesn’t fit a 260z. Thoughts?

This is for anyone interested. I'm in process of getting both doors working ship-shape, and I learned yesterday that putting washers between the door and the lower bolt of the front window guide rail (the metal piece that the big plastic slider on the window glass holder rides in) does wonders to realign the window. I was having just about every problem possible; window was cocking forward as it rolled up, window would stick on a roller and jolt as it moved up or down, window would just flat out jam in mid-travel, window would be angled way out and miss the chrome door sash completely, the works. By experimenting with different groups of washers placed between that fron…

I have the https://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/classic08a02b/40-4525 and I put the headliner in just fine but I don’t get how to put in the pillar and roof rail parts. The vinyl sections seem overly wide. Does anyone have this kit and do and I need to trim it down? I also am not sure where or if I should be tucking it into something. I am also just guessing I should first glue down the padding then glue the vinyl to the padding. Any pictures would be great. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Any idea where I can find the snaps that slide into the vinyl trim piece that goes over the rear wheel arch? I believe these are the same snaps that are used to hold the door card to the door metal. I attached a picture of the one remaining one I have. I can only seem to find plastic rivets for the hard plastic panels but not the snaps . Anyone have any ideas?

I have finally begun the interior replacement / installation on my 1973 240z. Is there an "approved" sequence for installing the interior pieces...? Also...I bought DynaMat sound deadener. My restoration is very detailed and I have spent lots of dollars trying to get it "right". Is it truly a "sin" to use the dynamat...? Thanks...Ryals

My seats 70 series one seem to be in good shape, but some what compressed. Is there a product out there that would make it possible for me to rebuild my seats, or should I leave this to a professional? Also, are there original carpet kits available ? This may be what I'm looking for:

The car that we are working on is a1973 240z. Door cards are in good shape but I need to clean and covert them from tan to black. There is a chrome strip 3-4 inches below the top of the door card. I am told that this accent is plastic. I do not want to replace the vinyl on the door card but would like to remove and replace the chrome strip. How does one go about removing this strip and not marring or destroying the vinyl. Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I have a 1973 240Z and the foam in my driver's seat was sagging and the fabric was worn and torn. I considered new foam and leather seat covers from Motorsports Auto; however, when I compared the cost, I decided to look for a seat swap. I found these S2000 seats locally on Craigslist. Previous owner had them installed in an Integra. After negotiations, I purchased the seats for $460 with a signed declaration from owner that the seats were not stolen (including his driver's license number). Seat Comparison: - S2000 seat mounting holes are further apart than 240Z seats - on this pic I have not yet bent back up the front part of the seat rails to straighten them - out…
