relocating the side lights
From memory you just crimp in two of the 3 wires that feed the fog light and re locate these two wires to your kerb lights, that way you can still have sidelights as well in your fogs, if you don't want that just leave the T10 bulbs out.

Quarter Glass Decal
I got my guy to make me up some of these, it is exactly the same as I have on the rear but made for the inside of glass :cool3: Again in silver to match the car, would really really like the EL 300ZX lit up panel that goes here but practically impossible to get hold of :sad: so these will have to do I will probably lose the alarm sticker from here as this will clean up the area better :winkiss:

so who wants a titanium key?
I finally got round to getting my keys cut :biggrin: Titanium one is a touch harder than the black and red one but my key cutting guy sorted it first time, also no going back with the others, all worked a treat. £5 each for the cutting - I am well chuffed. Turns out my spare on a cheap Nissan blank was in fact the valet key, so I did have both but now I have the full compliment of keys - all spot on :thumbup1:

You can't beat decent proper coffee
In the morning we have strong kettle Gold Blend with and we like it some coffeemate in, as well as a splash of milk We then drink Nescafe Latte, Macchiato - them powdered ones. We also have 1 litre toffee, hazelnut and gingerbread syrup to splash in whatever and whenever we like We do make a bee line for Starbucks or any decent coffee house when on our travels and holiday. Most nights I will have a full and whole milk Gold Blend coffee made in the microwave to help me go to bobo land!! I never touch tea but the wife does have a cup a day

Leather seat repair?
Not sure how bad they and I will presume they are charcoal, black shoe polish rubbed in with bring the colour back, then just generally feed with leather polish will improve the appearance somewhat :cool3:

ebay 99spec tails
Well I might have put that I wasn't interested in these in post 16 but I fooled you all - not, and I did in fact win them :thumbup: They arrived today and the lights much to my relief are genuine and mint, not a mark on them and I am well chuffed, should buff up beautifully :clap: Will fit when I have a minute but moving house currently so just a tad pre occupied with that :sweatdrop: I will then offer my copies, (in my rides), for sale but please don't dib these as this stage :no: The centre panel is a bonus to me and of course is not 99 spec, someone as drilled a hole in one of the reverse light lenses, can only presume to fit a fog light but there is no other evidence to back this up :huh: I do have another panel that I cracked a while back and so out of the two I will make up one good one and sell, I will also light up the 300ZX in red as I have a EL panel and invertor kicking about, again no dibs as I don't know when I will get round to it :yawn:

Fog/Running light options.
I find the best and whitest T10 bulb are these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/T10-W5W-501-Xenon-5-SMD-LED-Side-Light-Bulbs-White-x-2-/130484630091?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item1e617d724b And the same goes for these H3's, In my experience the more smd's in these the bluer they go, so stick to just 9 :thumbup:, shop around for the cheapest in both. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAR-H3-453-5050-SMD-9-LED-PURE-WHITE-BULB-FOG-DAY-LIGHT-/220748879518?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3365a8969e

Wheels F/R & Off Set
Mine are 17's and I would never say they look small but it is a SWB, with the correct wheels, drop and spacers they can look just as good. Many are running with 17's so I would not dismiss if I was you :clap:
