I am looking to find a better option to my rigid center vent in my Z to better direct air from AC towards the driver. Has anyone come up with a newer modified option that fits in the center vent area but allows you to direct the air any direction? I am assuming that you could replace the rigid (directionally set) vent with something from another vehicle that fits in there and can be pointed towards driver and/or passenger. Any ideas?

I've been wanting to do this for years. I finally got around to it. Finished product They were a little bigger that I would have liked but they were black. I got them at Harbor Freight. Made brackets out of aluminum and painted them black. I guess I could have dusted them off:) I cut the hooks out of the webbing. I cut the hooks themselves as I have an iron worker that will do that kind of thing. I left the loops in the webbing. I then used a soldering iron to burn holes through the strap. If you really wanted to get crazy you could slip a pin through the loop to keep it from pulling out but I really don't think you need it…

Howdy, This is for my Series 1 240z First the hard question! Just noticed that my light switch for my glove box is hanging in the box! Looks like the spot weld for the bracket has broken. Looks like to fix it right, I would need to pull the dash and spot weld back on. Not thinking of doing that right now. Any one else had this issue? Would JB weld or drilling a hole with a screw and nut work? Any thoughts would be appreciated…... And because I am lazy, I noticed that one of my cables for the heater control has come loose and the screw has vibrated off, and is no where to be found. Any ideas what size screws those are? I guess the easy way is to take one off the o…

So after 22yrs of just listening to my engine / exhaust and occasionally the radio through my cassette deck and 4" door speakers, I decided to upgrade to a modern audio system. This winter I had removed my interior and installed sound deadening (B-Quiet) and new carpet underlay (and Honda S2000 seats), so things had already been quieted down. I had never installed an audio system before, so I did a lot of research and decided on the following components (all parts purchased through Amazon.com, specs can be seen at Crutchfield links below): Pioneer DEH-80PRS for my head unit. My center stack had already been cut by previous owner to accommodate the cassette deck, so no fu…

Moving along with the Z and currently putting the hvac plate on. I read somewhere the plate should be already attached to the cables and then the cables to the heater box? If that's the case my cables are all already connected. Is there another way to install the plate. Any photos would be great! Thanks!! mo

I wanted my HVAC controls for my aftermarket Vintage Air unit to look as close to "stock" as possible. Tried different approaches that didn't require modification of the stock controls, but was not satisfied. Finally gave-up and had to bend one control arm and drill a few holes. I fabricated some custom brackets to mount the Vintage air controls and connected them to the control arms with pushrods. (See Pics) The rubber pads prevent rattles.

Anyone have this part? Its part of the reclining mechanism for a 73 240 drivers seat. I repaired it once already but my welding skills are sub-par at best. I may take it to a local shop but thought I would check here first hoping someone would have misc seat parts.

Does the hood release knob go on the side beside door bolts? On the passenger side the air vent knob is on the side. I see pics of the hood release knob on the side. Where is the other mounting location? On the bottom of the dash?

Thought I would let you guys in on what I am in doing lately in the Z world. I am working with a FG guy to replicate the early Z dash. The goal of this project is to offer an alternative fix for our aging dashes. The goal includes making this affordable, easy to replace, and an exact copy. Your options now are: Plastic cover that glues on and doesn't allow removal of your gauges... or getting your original fixed for about 1500$ Not very good options. It's a shame too, the dash is the biggest part on the car and can be the biggest eye sore. The FG dash will NOT replace the metal frame work. This project goal is not to lessen the weight of the dash(even though it still mi…
