    DIY: Brighter Gauge Lights 1 2

    by tymarbry

    <font color="red" size="20"><b>Ok</b></font> So I got tired of the very dim green dash and gauge lights for my 280z. I didnt see anyone on the forums so far doing this yet so I decided to take a crack at it. Gonna try and make this easy to follow and understand. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you too are tired of having to squint in at your gauges when driving at night, then you might want to also consider this. Just some basic info: Most production cars use wedge type bulbs for gauge lights that twist out of the back of the gauge. These wedge bulbs also usually have a type of plastic coa…

    Interior door release lever color

    by Geoff's 240z

    Hi guys, The interior door release lever on the drivers side is worn down and doesn't match the same black color of the door card. Any ideas on getting this back to the appropriate black color? Thanks!

    Shift lever boot

    by Richard McDonel

    I'm trying to get my 240 as close to original as practical. I have the wrong shift boot, and am offered replacements in both vinyl and leather, and with or without a boot lace at the top. Which came original on a Series 2 1971? Thanks

    240Z power antenna 1 2

    by frankfou999

    Does someone knows if there is a power antenna in the market that is close to the original ? I've seen that HARADA is claiming that it does. I would like an antenna that operates the same way, e.g. the switch on the radio activate it up and down instead of automatic up and down when activating the radio.

    1st gen seats 1 2 3 4 7

    by NovaSS

    How many different seat types came in the early Zs? Mine is a 1970 ( Nov 1969 production ) RHD Fairlady. My problem is the right seat was replaced at one time because it was torn :mad: The replacment seat has a different design around the head rest. Does anyone know what year seats would be correct?

    window issue 1 2

    by arcdef

    Hi All,I am hoping for some help/advice on an issue with my 260Z's window. Since buying the drivers side window was quite stiff to wind up/down but i thought it was just because of its age. The other day however as winding up there was a loud 'pop' at which point the window dropped and had come off of its guides.I took the window and regulator out, cleaned and re-greased and reassembled however it is now just as stiff and wont go all the way up as seems misaligned. I have attempted to adjust it using the front sash and rear guide however can not get it to sit right.I am starting to think the regulator itself may be damaged as it appear to be fouling on itself.Does anyone …

    by clocatelli

    Guys, my car is in the process of getting most of the interior parts reinstalled in the vehicle. When i purchased it, the interior was basically stripped and i have been piecing it back together. MY question is which piece should i have in the location directly in front of the shiftier. is it this? or this? or this one? i believe it is the first pic because i do not have a series one car. Vin pick below:

    Rear Strut Vinyl

    by 87mj

    Several months ago, I ran across cardboard (?) caps that fit over the rear strut towers. They fit under the diamond vinyl. The intent was to form a flat surface for the diamond vinyl to lay on. They came that way from the factory. I have an earlier car that didn't come with those but I was positive that I saw them at a zcar parts store somewhere. I am sure I saw them but I cannot find them anywhere. Does anyone know where they can be bought? I would like to avoid trying to make something. I suspect the vinyl install wont look good when I am finished based on how I have seen the other results. So the less variables I can introduce, the better I should be. Tha…
