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

Hi all
I am looking for an upgrad to my SWB. Have around £500 to spend.
Don't want new wheels as I have just put a new set of bots on the 17's I have so will perhaps go for 18's when the tyres need renwing next time.
Thought about some new brakes or perhaps an upgrade to the sound system.
As you can see from the photos it already has a kit on but don't think I could do that for 500 anyway.
Should have said that it is a JAP import and still limited I think. Have had it to the end of the clock and it is still pulling however.
What was the best upgrade yopu had when you first got your Z? Am just after some ideas of what to do.
What do you all think I should do?
