Centre consol screw covers and strip.
no mate I havent. Basically a thin flat alloy sheet screwed in to existing screw holes. It had a series of 2" circles cut out across the top to let the air pass. Just sprayed it satin black. what you need to bear in mind tho is that my slicktop is all "stripped out" to save weight. It didnt look particularly impressive, but it looked better than having a huge hole there. :rolleyes:

Does anyone know how much the little screw covers that go at the top of the radio consol are to buy new? Also how much the strip is that covers the other screws??

MOT Failure. Emissions! Help.
Hmm exactly. The problem was I didnt own the car when it failed first time. So I had little idea what had ben done. The previous owner was kind enough to give me the fail sheet with the car. It was up to me whether I broke the car or fixed it. I paid the owner his asking and took it away. MOT man was NOT going to own up to the mistake. He just blamed the DVLA Computer. (yeah right! :rolleyes: ) I just paid the £20 retest and left with the ticket. Thats all I wanted. Micky will do the o2 sensors anyway. So not really any time or money wasted. And it has been an entertaining thread :rofl:

Illuminated rear panel??????
Cheers Taff, No good asking Nissan, but Ill ask our own Nissan man. Mr F. But even if Nissan do it Im guessing it will be thousands of Yen. Anyone else know a bit more???

MOT Failure. Emissions! Help.
SPOT ON! Went back this morning as it was last day for retest. I had already noticed on the Fail sheet that he had the car down as Dec 92. Showed him the log book which just says 92 with no month. Than I pointed out that the DVLA had issued a J plate indicating a late 91 early 92 manufacture date. Mr F. at MJP confirmed the model/chassis numbers as late 91. He had done a "cat " test before and tried to tell me that the DVLA computer told him to do it. I politely asked him to enter the reg again and it came up as a 91 to Jul 92 vehicle!!!! So 1.5% CO was well within the 3.5% limit. So he mumbled something... went into the office ... and re appeared with the MOT saying the DVLA Computer had accepted it! Whatever. I put the fee in his hand , grabbed the ticket and headed for the door. YAHOOO! I got a ticket to ride! Now its just got to go down to Z Worx so Mickey can breathe a little magic on it and fix a couple of little niggles and then I can look for a new owner for it. Well I wouldnt want to be seen riding round in a four seat family saloon with windows where the roof should be :nono: Not only that... somebody has nicked the clutch pedal :rofl: thanks to Ossian, Mike at MJP and everyone else who has helped on this one. ;) Dont ya just love it when a plan comes together??? Wanna buy it???? :)

Reflective Headlights?
I have HID lights fitted. One of the best mods on a Zed. I also have "chrome inserts". As Legrath says they are about the look and dont improve the light output. I think they suit my red car, but I tend to agree that on a lighter coloured car it doesnt make much difference. I also have a s/h pair of HIDs for sale. They are the same as the ones on my car. "Roxie Heart" make. These were sold on this forum by a Trader now departed. Outlander. Im guessing since I have had mine for 2 years that the ones I am selling are that sort of age too.

MOT Failure. Emissions! Help.
pete,do what i done for a big drop in emisions after the reading was high, before you take it in go for a fast hard drive to get the cats upto working temp when in the station take the small vac pipe off the balance bar and let the engine ingest more air, (it works believe me). Had the same probs myself till i did this

Problem with new drive shaft !
the danger here is that you will be using the threaded part to locate which is undersize, rather than the smooth shank. Easiest option is to get the threaded part turned down shorter.
