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…

<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…

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

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.

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?
