Hiya Im about to install my original door panels WITHOUT the rivets. All the rivetholes on doors are somewhat busted so they wont hold, also the rivets in panel dont stay in place, cardboard is ripped in those places. Has anyone experience installing door panels "other" way? I can't remember where someone suggested me to use this http://www.3mselect.co.uk/p-1016-3m-5313-butyl-strip-sealant-20mm-x-10m.aspx to attach the panel to the door. I got small piece of this butyl strip and it seems very sticky. It suppose to be weather resistant. Thoughts?:bulb:

Can anyone tell what Z these seats are out of and if the mechanisms are correct? I ordered a set of seat mechanism covers for a 77 280 and the second pic is what I received. Thanks for the help. The covers don't fit Bob

I got it off of ebay about two years ago. It's in pretty good shape, although it could use a paint job. It fits fine, but its a little bigger around, and it has those horn buttons on the spokes. I like the horn buttons, as they make it easier to honk the horn, something I find I need to do a lot in such a little car. Just the other day an idiot in a hummer started backing right into me in a parking lot. I don't think he could see me, he was sitting so high. Anyway, does someone know what Datsun from which it came?

Is there some sort of clip that needs to be removed before the window crank can be taken off? How does it come off?

With protecting and refurbishing dashboards, consoles, plastic in the interior. I’ve been using Griots product on my Z, Ferrari, RX-7 & Miata. Seems less greasy than the standard Armor All stuff. But does anything really PROTECT?

I will be installing heat and sound proofing on my 280z and am wondering what you all did to cover it. This would be on the firewall. Got mine from http://www.lobucrod.com/ Did you use the old firewall insulation with the black cover or installed custom carpeting? Pics would help.

As it has been much too cold here to work in the garage I thought I would try to see if I could modify one of my spare choke levers to make it a throttle lever. as the lever is make from mild steel, I drilled out the spot welds and flattened it in a vise. After bending it to be the mirror image of the original lever I welded it back together. I than made a couple of brackets and a guide for it. As I was looking for something to fill in the slot, I think this will work very well. Now I need a better long slot choke/throttle bezel as the PO cut out a larger hole for an antenna up/down switch in the one I have now.

My white interior is getting refreshed after my car gets back from paint. I'm redying all my panels, however the shock tower vinyl is toast, cut up, and was glued on. I'm thinking about getting the molded carpet kit from BD, that includes the shock tower and wheel well pieces in black carpet. This should still look fine in my car as it has black carpet etc.. anyway. The vinyl pieces aren't available for a 78, much less in white. Has anyone had any experience with the BD molded kit? Just wanted to make sure it fit ok basically. http://www.blackdragonauto.com/icatalog/zr/full.aspx?Page=71

So im in the process of removing my dash. I researched this, printed out the step by step procedure, and have about everything completed except unplugging the speedometer cable. Ive searched threads and it sounds easy enough, if you have a 240z. My car is a 75 280z with factory AC(which is also coming out). Is the cable harder to access in the 280z's? Ive located the cable, and followed it up a little ways with my hand, but i dont feel and type of plug. Please help..

I have a set of new blue door skins for my '71 240Z and have been looking for a solid pair of 240Z door panel boards to mount the door skins on, but have had no luck. There was a solid pair on Ebay with pristine mounting holes a couple months back, but I got outbid at the last second. I was wondering if a set of 280Z panel boards would fit on a 240Z. I realize that they have different arm rest holes in different places, etc but I thought that possibly the 280Z door panels could be modified.
