headlight covers

[sjcurtis]

I have to agree with "beandip" headlight covers are the go, smoke colour yes please. I dont think I can even get the clear one here in Brisbane.

Does anyone know where I can get a set in Australia or overseas(not the model for the fairlady with chrome surrounds), the after market set with rubber dust seals and stainless brackets.

thanks

I will try the Zworkshop in Brisbane. If I get no joy I will get on the blower to motorsport auto.

Thanks again for the help

Thanks to "Z Kid" for the info on the supplier in NSW. I checked out the site and it looks good, I have emailed the Z workshop here in Brisbane and I am still waiting for a reply at this stage.

Thanks

Here's a tip - don't email those blokes - they never check their email!!

Ring them up its far more efficient

It only took them a bit over a month to get back to me.

A the modern age. Thanks for the hot tip on using the phone. in this case it appears you are right I still have no response from my emailed request. I will say that three weeks ago I sent an Email to the restorer hotline store in Adelaide to chase down weather seals, $700.00 AUS and I had an email responce within the hour, got to love it when the guy who owns the store owns a classic Z.

Thanks to "Alfadog" & "Z Kid".

Steve will now use the Phone.:classic:

700 bucks for new rubbers all around?

A complete set?

[sjcurtis]

The seal set included all the major positions I am now only waiting for quarter window outers surround seals at $25.00.

"Alfadog" what is your view on the seal kit price.

Is it a 17 piece kit?

If so, Victoria British sells that kit for $189 USD... so maybe you should ring up Z Parts or whatever the place in Sydney is called and ask how much they sell their kit for?
