Convoy to Joint meet March 19th
Hobby Horse :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Have you seen the state of the roundabout recently? It's like a war zone at the moment ;) 11am.... Grantham (New pub on A1 island) :cool: :bow: But it's not looking good for having my Zed back from the bodyshop by then, he's had a few problems recently and had to put all his work back, so I might not even have her in there by then :cry: If it isnt going to be done by then, then I won't have it put back on the road until April at the earliest, but we'll see ;)

Are your kids like you?
Well I'm an old fart, so I've got kids :D My daughter is nothing like me, but everyone says that my son is the spiting image of me :eek: So I really feel sorry for him :rofl: He's a real 'Chip Off The Old Block' My daughter can be irritating at times, so much like my Ex then :rofl: :rofl:

And Now
It depends on the laptop it's going to be used on. I see by the pic you put up that the cable has the connector for the car plug at one end and a serial connector at the other. This mean that to save any futher expense (on top of a laptop ;) ) you'll need to buy/borrow a laptop with a serial port on it. I've just bought a refurbished laptop in readyness for one of Dannys ConZult's, and so as not to mean any more expense, made sure that this has one on it. It's a Dell C610, with a 1Gb processor, 256 Ram, 20Gb hard drive and a CD rom tray, in fact it's got everything that you would need if you were 'Out in the field' :D (even had it running on here via my mobile this afternoon) all for only £245 delivered from EBay.

For the boffins Z to ZX to Z Why?
I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that all the 'ZX' veriety are 2+2, whereas all the 'Z' are only 2+0! Ofcourse this doesn't stand for the 2+0 version of our own Z32, but it does for the others :D

QUIZ- What is this guy trying to do?
Arrr well, that only took 5 mins :headvswal Right, here's the link to the entire site, scroll down the page untill you come to the section that has loads of Japanese writing and start from the top of that bit. Incidently it's all in Jap, but then after a few pages I think you can work out what he's trying to do :D..... Have fun ;)

Replacing Horns
Jim is spot-on :D I found that, as I have an Apex-i induction filter and not the standard air-box, it was just as easy to go in via the centre panel (between the lights) as this saves you a lot of hassle jacking the car up and working from underneath. HTH Dave

NZR: DVD-RW Drive installation problems

complete 007 dvd set..
If you're a true fan, then you'd put it along with the original Casino Royale (David Niven, Woody Allan etc, 1967) and Never Say Never Again (Sean Connery, 1983) that also don't go in the box, even though they were also relaesed on DVD by MGM :D

Easy, following THIS LINK, You then decide where you want to host you pic. Either on this site in your rides section, or on a photo hosting site, like Photobucket. Then simply use the photo link to past into you signature (see how-to link above) HTH EDIT** To use Photobucket, create an account and then follow their instructions on the site, or to use your rides section here, go to User CP and click the Edit Rides button and follow the Browse and Submit buttons.

Clear Rear Lights
A US company called Clearcorners.com used to sell a LED full clear lens converted set-up, but it was bloody expensive. Just been looking, and all the links to pics of it are no longer working, the only pic that does work is on their product page, but is shown with the red illuminated, so you cant see it all clear (if you see what I mean) They also don't even list it as a 'Contact Us' option. EDIT** This one>>>
