First 3 things I I need to repair!
SO i went and checked the mount Its good but some one put shims in! between the lower member and the mount it self! So I guess that mean the band is worn out? is there a good replacement? also do you have to wrench the bolts that mount the mount to the diff or is there a trick? i could not get an impact socket on it!

no cluster lights or side makers and back lights!
Well I don;t have a glove box lamp and some some plugged the connector together and hide in under the harness!

Some else's left over tach problems
So since i'm tracking down a short in the dash! I wanted to know why my tach didn't work and had a mini tach wired up!.. early 260z with a mallory Dizzy and mallory coil So i rewired the tach and pegs at max RPM does it need some kinda adapter or jsut a bad tach? also by the coil I have 3 wire and have no idea where they go any help! 2 are female barrel plugs ones black with white other is blue then by the resistor there is a terminal just floating solid blue any help would be great thanks! not even a week into owning this car yet!

I have no side makes or back lights or plate lights! But head lamps, turn signals , brake and back up lights all work! I checked fuse its getting power across! and i check the connector be hide glove box and next to the seat by the rocker panels.
