Hi all, tomorrow I am hoping to get my windscreen replaced!
3 months ago my windscreen developed a crack on the passenger’s side.
My insurance company told me to contact Autoglass which I did.
3 months later they informed me they could not source a windscreen.
It took me 2 days to track one down with YTW windscreens
And Pilkinton Glass can make them to order!
Now l have the windscreen with no clear precise instructions on how to get the side panels off without destroying them along with braking plastic clips & robber stoppers along the way that are nearly 30 years old.
Here are some photos
How to take off the side panel?
First lift the top up off the rail ! Do not bend it !,
When that is done the whole side panel slides out! Not with 30 years of dirt along the rails they don’t!
I have new side panels arriving at a cost of around £189
I have also ordered new side pillar trim Retainers as it suggested, but not needed !
Cost £216
The windscreen cost £654
Plus £200 windscreen fitted
Added insensitives £36 scuttle clips -square ones
£28 for new top plastic clips
All for love😀300ZX

Ok, I bought and fitted a new front lower ball joint but there is a conical insert on my old ball joint that does not appear on my new ball joint.
Is this meant to unscrew from the old ball joint and fit to the new one? To say that I'm confused is an understatement :blush:
Pictured - new ball joint (with dust cover removed) fitted to lower arm and old ball joint with tapered inser/spacer.
Hopefully somebody knows what's going on - Andy
