Hi all,

At the last Scottish KFC meet (last Wednesday), I had the opportunity to see the boot area of Ossian's Zed.........nothing untoward there you say.

 

On comparing my boot "boards" it would appear that, what I thought was standard fit - is most definitely not. I have three fairly heavy vinyl covered metal boards instead of the hardboard ones.The same kind of vinyl covered aluminium? is present in the passenger's footwell, protecting the ECU.

 

Then I compared the standard targa covers against mine, again, a custom job. Foam padded , vinyl/leatherette?

 

Lastly, the auto gear knob.....leather stiched?

 

Can anyone shed any light on these items or are they more common than I think that they may be? :confused1:

Every Z I've seen has a plank of wood protecting the ECU, as odd as that seemed to me when I first saw it! So I'd say there may be more custom stuff in your motor.

I wouldn't complain, at least yours isnt going to go out of shape and start sagging in places like the OEM ones do.

 

I do prefer the leather gear selector, thats more fitting to the interior than the OEM look

Iain, your totally wrong, dont you recall our discussion about the std gear selector being the most desirable of all auto options, all those other non std ones are so last year......

 

CC, you've certainly get some unusual items there. They all look very desirable...except of course that awful gear knob...hang on, i've just had an idea...why dont we swap our gear knobs, as you're fairly new , i'm willing to take your one so that you can use the one that is used by all the class members,

I can tell you exactly what it is, its diamond fibre board used in flightcase material, can be bought in virtually any thickness either a moulded one part or ply covered in it.
