I am now selling the "Parking Light Upgrade Harness" that was mentioned earlier this month. After a lot of research and as far as I can tell, It will work on all 240Z's. If the 260Z or 280Z's headlight switch's plug are anything like the 240's, the new harness might even work for them as well. not sure yet.

I'll do some more research on the 260 and 280Z's, but for now, I'm ready to take and recieve orders. And now for the final price, which has the S/H included in said price. After ordering, TAX, assembly labor and every thing else I put into these harness's, the final price is.......

$37.00 inside the lower 48 states. The price will obviously be higher if I have to ship it over borders or oceans. If this price seems too high, consider the following supply list and prices I pay to make the harness,

The kit includes...

7.5 ft of black 12 ga. wire ($1.00)(black blends and looks more stock than red)

1 fuse holder with a 15 amp fuse ($1.50) (for safety)

1 30/40 automotive relay ($3.00)

1 relay socket ($0.75)(makes changing the relay easier and less confusing)

2 OEM style 6 pin sockets (1 male ($5.00) and 1 female ($5.50)

16 new solid brass terminals (aprox. $0.40 each) totaling ($6.40)

1 simple page of instructions

For a total of $23.15

in parts, and thats not even including tax or labor or shipping.

I will also post installation sheet on this forum so people can see how easy it is to install.

MONEY ORDERS ONLY!!!!! I Don't want to use my paypal cause it's a pain in the azz and cost too much to use, So DON"T Paypal me!!!!

I generally use Priority Mail from U.S.P.S. Please remember to CLEARLY print your return address so I know who to send it to. I'm looking at about a 1 week turn-around (which means about 1 week from the time you put your money order in the mail to the time you recieve your new harness)

Here is a picture....

For hose of you who would like to know what the plug looks like before taking off the steering column cover, Here's a picture of the plug that comes from the headlight switch.

The usual wire in question is the lifted one, It sits in the middle on the same side as the indentations (that only allow the plug to go in one way)

it's green/blue stripe comes from the switch and into the plug then turns green/white on the other mating plug.

"usual wire in question"? I'm a little confused, what is the question? can anyone explain what I'm missing here?

I was P.M.'d with questions about the output "wire" that comes from the switch to the parking lights, dash and side markers. the pic. identifies the wire that is "usually" in question. That is also the wire I use in my relay harness.

Feel smarter? I hope so, cause my fingers hurt from doing harness's all day, which makes it hard to type.

Guess who finally called me. That's right UPS called me three days after I was supposed to get my package to finish these orders.

Then they have the nerve to tell me "it won't be to your house till 6pm this evening". I reamed the hell out of her and demanded delivery of my package NOW. She's going to call the driver and find out where he is at this very moment, Then I'LL GO MEET HIM AND GET IT MYSELF.

I could have driven to southern California (from northern Washington) and picked the order up and got home by thursday MYSELF. Screw U.P.S. I'll never be using them again, ever!!

Sorry guys, Just venting again, the orders should be in the mail by Tuesday morning. Unless I get hit by a fricken truck or something :mad:

Dave.

Dave, I think I wrote somewhere that my lights are brighter. It works as advertised. I never had the hot fuse problem though.

So anyways, UPS finally showed up and the driver did'nt look very happy with me, WAAAAH!

Here are the harness's that I finished and delivered today...

I kicked butt all day and finished 'em all. All 3 will be delivered tomorrow (2/23/06) They'll go out Priority Mail thru USPS and should only take 2-3 days. Some of you should have your package before the week-end is up.

Brad, I checked with the Post office and they said 4 to 7 days to your location. don't worry, $15 value on the box. I got ya covered. I hate taxes as much as the next guy.

Thanks guys, tell your friends and let us know when ya get 'em and put them in. I love to hear the results.

I'm trying to make a small surplus of harness's, so if you're thinking of buying one of the 2 ( or both) harness's that I make, Now's the time.

Thanks again guys,

Dave.

Things have slowed down a bit, so if your thinking about ordering either harness's from me, I've got time on my hands.

By the way, I DO combine shipping on multiple orders now. If you know of a 240Z in need of a harness, or thinking of a gift for your friends in a Z-car club, brighter lights may be just what they're looking for.

Dave.

Since the initial rush seems to be waning here Dave have you thought about posting on ZCar.com or Hybridz.org since there are probably some Z owners who don't hit this site but might hit those instead?

Carl Beck was very kind in introducing the headlight harness on his site. There are a few sites that I keep wanting to put the advertisement on but keep forgeting, I guess nows as good a time as any.

I'll have parts in by wed or thursday for those of you who are waiting for a good time to order your harness'(s)

Don't forget that I am also offering the foglight attachment for an extra $25.

It's integrated into the headlight harness so you only see an additional relay and two wires for the foglights and 1 little input wire that goes to stock fog light wire near the healight plug.

Use the links below to email me or find more info,

Dave.

Just like to add that I've now installed both harnesses to my RHD '73. I have to echo everyone else and say the quality is excellent and help from Dave is second to none! In terms of delivery I recieved my harnesses before the international tracker postage service I used said Dave had received my money order - superb! Since then Dave has been extremely helpful to an electically clueless person, answering all my dumb questions clearly. Any one else thinking that there might be an issue installing on RHD cars, don't worry, it's just as easy as on LHD!

cheers,

Rob
