    I’m looking for someone who may have a hand throttle cable. I would like to reproduce one but hoping that I could get some detailed pictures and would really like some measurement's of the outside housing length and inner cable length. Let me know if you can help….thanks

    I went with the Holley Retro Brights. I liked them as they looked original and they came in classic white….which is like the original yellowish light beam colour…..not the super white. Amazing light now compared to my original bulbs!

    Well as soon as I posted on here I got a response from DG and they apologized for not meeting their ETA and are going to issue a full refund in 1 to 3 days…..fingers crossed!

    I placed an order with Datsun Garage for replacement seat foam on October 18 of LAST YEAR….i still have not received the foam and am now wanting to cancel order. I have received every excuse from delays at manufacturer, issues with shipping thru the Red Sea, have to wait till DG has enough orders for seat foam order, sales people at DG have been sick, in an accident or moved on.. to the manufacturer is relocating! I’ve been patient but have finally had enough! Now I’m trying to cancel the order and all I get is silence. I tried calling and emailing them dozens of times and nothing. I paid thru PayPal and I went thru complaints…..I am over their 180 day money return policy. Does anyone know if they are even still in business? Does anyone have any ideas on how I can reach them and cancel this? Have others had issues with Datsun Garage? Please let me know, thanks

    Does anyone know where I can find a set of the Yuasa battery decals? JDM used to have them but are no longer available. Wondering if anyone has reproduced them. thanks
  7. They look great, plus no one will even notice….just you! 😆
  8. I couldn’t find any of the male snaps either so I made my own from bits and pieces from the Home Depot hardware drawers. Took the 3 pieces shown and stacked them together then glued with epoxy. I also cut out some wood backing washers like the originals. Notice that Datsun put a small piece of tape held the nut onto the backing washer so it didn’t fall off during assembly.

    Yah, I know….but I would know. I don’t know what it is with me but I am trying and like to keep everything as stock looking as possible….I guess it’s a sickness! 🤪

    That one looks impossible to find up here in Canada, maybe I will use the old original one….it seems hard but ok still

    I agree with the 19mm hose for the filler vent. I got all my hoses today and the 17mm is just too small/tight! Now where did you find the 19mm hose?

    Ah, maybe quantity refers to number of clamps?
  13. Grapes posted a post in a topic in Open Discussions
    Ok, now I’m completely mixed up…in your chart you have the hose description and the length and in another column you have the quantity? I’m just looking to get everything together, then drop the tank, replace then re-install…..hopefully! Hahahaha. By the way….really nice job finishing the spare tire tub!👍

    How accurate were woodworkerb hose lengths that he stated in his write up? I found a VW place up here in Canada that has all the same hoses I need and sells them by the foot…cheaper and no waste!
  15. Hi, I am also looking for carpet snaps. Has anyone found a source for the barbed ring and triangle female snap? Looks like I can get them out of the UK but was hoping for something closer. I am also looking for one, just one of the original male snaps….I can get the backing and bolts easily enough. If anyone has one, please let me know. Thanks
