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

Anyone got a spare PTU i can 'borrow', so i can swap over with mine and see if mines gone belly up.
A few notes:
- Idles for 3 Secs Then Stalls, Whatever the Temperature.
- Heavy tapping on right hand bank.
- Will rev up to full range (so i know its not in safety mode)
- New Plugs and cleaned all Injector Connectors and Coil Pack Connectors.
I merely want to illiminate the PTU as the cause, if anyone can lend me one i would appreciate big time.
Thanks to Cos and Phsyco for the help. Superb
