Z's on BAT and other places collection
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.

Headlight upgrades
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.

‘73 240Z Trans Tunnel Discrepancy
Stock shifter will not work as-is with a 5 speed without interference. Most modified the shifter.

Door Internals Window Mechanisms Regulators, Etc
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.

Windshield Sprayer Nozzle
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.

My car has no adhesive whatsoever. The OEM hardware works just fine.
