maybe we could buy together and split the shipping/money order cost?

I seem to recall owing you a favour

Andrew

That would work for me Andrew!

Would this upgrade kit be compatible for cars that have the parking lights ( ie pos 1 on the combination switch) in the headlamps ( I don't know if US cars have the same parking lights as in the UK)

Since fitting US style indicators I seem to have parking (side) lights in both my headlamps and in the indicators - d'oh! I'm sure it just have to snip a wire or ten and that'll be all sorted

Cheers,

I presume that means the US/Japanese cars have their parking lights in the front underbumper indicators? Sounds like the wiring is there on UK cars but is not used on UK indicators.

Dave, are you OK with shipping to the UK if Black Beaut and I arrange an international money order?

Yep, the plug connectors were already there so I just connected the units up. Had to hack in a couple of wires to get the side markers working with them though. Naturally as I fitted in daylight I didn't think to turn the lights on, the fact that they did light up when the dipbeams were on was pointed out at the local club meet - d'oh I'll get around to fixing them somewhen, it's not like I need to worry while the car's bum is up in the air and I tackle the rear suspension and diff!

Dave,

Let me know when you have the 280 wiring ready or if someone is sure that all of the Zs are the same, i.e.: 240 - 280.

thanks,

are those square plugs that hook the headlight into the main harness could you get a pic of where they are located at?

ecp48,

I checked today, and the plugs changed at the start of the 260Z run (build)

240Z's are the only ones with the square plugs, 260's are round as are the 280's

I need to find a manufacturer of those round plugs before I can build the harness for the 260Z and 280Z. Truely sorry about that, But give me time, I'll figure something out, I always do.

Zargon321,

The plugs are located in front of the radiator on the left and right sides of the car. there are two (2) similar style plugs near each other in that location, those are the headlight and turn signal lights, as well as two wires for the sidemarker that use bullet connectors.

Just follow the wire from the back of the headlight housing to the connector on the stock harness, and there it is.

Dave.

Put me down for one as well.

Ditto to what Mike W said.

Will

Dave,

Would you consider using used connectors, if I sent them to you?

It may take a little time, my local u-pick has been on a crushing kick due to metal prices and 3 280s, 4 280ZX,s and a couple of 300s and a 240 were all crushed, glass doors, etc.

ecp48/Ed

you could also use the right size bullet connectors it might not look as sharp but it will get the job done,

Xargon321,

Bullet connectors are for the side markers, not the headlights.

Ecp48,

If you sent me the correct plugs, YES, I could intergrate them into the harness at no extra charge. I'll need the 2 males and 2 females for both sides, (4 plugs all together) and we'll take it from there.
