Replacement dials
Ok, so do I run a wire from the reverse light to the fog light switch on my dash & earth it? Or do I have to put in another switch? Then change the bulb for a 21w red bulb.

Replacement dials
Thanks for that, I also need to sort out a rear fog light & like the idea of utilising the inner brake lights good. I dont like the idea of an add on rear fog.

Anyone imported a Z without a Clearing Agent?
Help required! My Z is sitting somewhere in Southampton docks! (15th May) Hoegh Antwerp of Hoegh Autoliners AS was the ship & it docked in Southampton on the 15th May. I have the B/L, Commercial Invoice & Japanese Export Certificate. Also have a C 384 (Vessels) is this the right one? All I want to do is pay the Import Duty & VAT (how, where?) Go to the port & transport it home to then get work done for MOT & Register! Any Z member imported without a clearing agent? Any advice appreciated. Art

bombers
My thoughts go to familly & friends who lost loved ones through this most horrific act. Terrorist have been around before we & America went to war on Iraqu! I did not agree with Bush or Blair for taking us to war. The muslums must look at thier problems, they have very big issues to tackle. We are observing the 2 min silence in respect of the dead caught by these mad people!

Poly bushes...DIY??
I replaced front ones DIY style. removed front struts off car, then a local engineering firm (yellow pages) pressed old ones out & pressed new bushes in. Took him 1 hour. Charged me a tenner. You need to use the grease provided with the bushes to get them to slide in. The type of press is called a Fly Press I think? The rear ones not sure about. Arthur

Help needed
Hi Mate Im not sure! I dont mind, my past Z had cloth which I liked. Will check it out & let you know, if reports come back ok about it. I wonder if I might miss the umph of turbo power? I have been without a car for 8 months, no! no ban. Been in Tenerife all this time, now due back around 13-14 March. Do you have an induction kit or any mods? Is there much difference between the SWB & 2+2? Am I about to start WW3 with a question like that! Like what coluor is best, or TT or not. First jobs will be lights & clear side repeaters. Any comments welcome. Arthur
