  1. I'm not going this year. Been to Nashville a couple times.

    I think Dave is back making his kits, at least sort of.

    They have Koito on that link for Toyota.

    I know Dave's stuff, I have some of the harnesses on my Z. I don't know about switching needs for these lights, but I assume they're selected because they will work on early Zs.
  5. Looks like this thread is becoming unmanageable. Are you guys managing your post lists? Because when they're sold they need to be deleted. Don't make people run through a list of 20 cars that have been sold. Frankly I'm not convinced this thread is helpful.

    https://www.thezstore.com/datsun-240z-1971/product/865/chrome-classic-hid-projector-headlight-kit-70-83-240z-260z-280z-280zx https://www.thezstore.com/datsun-240z-1971/product/867/chrome-classic-hid-projector-headlight-kit-v2-70-83-240z-260z-280z-280zx So I'd like to hear opinions about these two options, and/or others. There not much in the descriptions on the MSA site. I don't want this thread to go negative, and all about brands. Thanks.
  7. I have my straps in a box somewhere, and decided not to reinstall them for couple reasons, 1) limit usefulness, and 2) would need complete refurbish of the metal parts and new webbing.
  8. You could also make a template.
  9. If you're going to post these photos, why not include info and context?

    I never cared for the straps. The metal finish was low quality, and they had very limited utility.
  11. Not sure I'm follow what the problem is. Are you looking to replace these rubber pieces?

    That's cheap for that one. Get it! I paid more 20 years ago. Get it powder coated.

    If I had to choose again, I might go with the version without front brake cooling inlets.

    BRE spoilers if you want to maintain stock valance.
  15. Stock shifter will not work as-is with a 5 speed without interference. Most modified the shifter.
  16. It's a difficult job, so replace all the consumables (eg, rubber, rollers, etc) while you're in there. Grease what needs after cleaning all parts thoroughly.

    You know what we really need? New sprayer nozzles. Mine are mostly shot, and I hate them. Too bad there isn't a better nozzle out there.
  18. Okay, who's going besides me? Already registered!

    Where have you been? We're going to Tampa this year.
  20. bpilati posted a post in a topic in Body & Paint
    I'm pretty certain they should be body color.
  21. bpilati posted a post in a topic in Body & Paint
    Scan an inside panel.

    Does fit in a channel or use adhesive?
  23. My car has no adhesive whatsoever. The OEM hardware works just fine.
  24. I just checked, so are mine. But the glasses are left and right since they have curvature. So they just printed all on the same side.
  25. Seems unlikely since the glass is curved.
