HEADPHONES

Welcome to the OC. More pics! Deffo more pics

I'm with Marzman. Bluetooth headset or wired one Call a friend or family as you leave your door. Say hello to the neighbour and say "sorry, got a call" Jobs a goodun I've even had my brother ring me at pre arranged times in such cases

Welcome to the OC. Did I meet you and your blue zed at Cars and Coffee last Sunday?

Glad to hear your zed is back to good health. A happy ending is a happy ending

You could also try Solution Finish. I normally use Gtechniq C4 trim restorer, but when NOTHING can bring the black back, this was amazing. Used it on a plastic bumper that had been filled and painted with textured black paint. The paint had faded and went patchy. It's not a restorer as such but a dye. You only need a small bottle as a little goes a long way.

There you go Minid^ The man from Del Monte said don't worry Sleep easy and hopefully it'll sort itself out.

PM Zmanalex. He may have one lying around in his Aladdin's cave.

Feel for you. Who would have thought something so simple could cause something like that. I'm sure this has happened before to someone either on here or on detailingworld. If nobody here has any ideas I'd post up on detailingworld. Good luck anyway and here's hoping it goes back to normal with a bit of sun now the car cover is gone.

How cool is that! Looks too fidly a job for me though. I got scared of the thought of simply hard wiring my dashcam and have it plugged into the ciggy lighter Good job there

I'd get the Renault for the liquid yellow paint alone! Saw one at night and under streetlights the car looked like a cross between a fireball and a lightsabre

Not seen anything like that before! Would look good I reckon on a black on black beast. Wouldn't work on rims with thicker spokes but you got nothing to lose as I assume they'd be dead easy to remove

Do like a bit of cancaveness

Like perfect spheres!

Loving blue cars at the moment. Especially Zeds! Welcome to the OC

That blue really sets off the beads!

Lots of nice beading photos being posted recently. Thought it'd be nice to give them a home of their own. I'll start off with some recent Ish pics 50:50 mix Sonax BSD and Chemical Guys V07 Hybrid Sealant used as a drying aid on a couple of non Zed cars

Often like you I end up having to wash the car at night. Being a considerate neighbour I'll not use a pressure washer at night. I'd normally spray a shampoo mix on as a prewash then 2bm wash. My current Sonax BSD cocktail works a treat with this and I can still see and feel the slickness when using the wash mitt and rinsing. However if it's more dirty I'll use a stronger prewash like Powermaxed Jetwash and Wax. This is fine with just a pressure rinse off, still leaving some good beading and slickness when using the wash mitt, but without a pressure rinse and going contact wash it'll totally strip my LSP. So I was intrigued by this new TW and it's detergent resistance. Like a numpty I washed the Zed on Friday and went autopilot using my old Sonax BSD cocktail instead of trying out the TW

Nice beads davey_83 for what amounts to an extra couple of mins to the drying stage and a fiver! I still remember using TW Wax it Wet when it first came out and was instantly hooked on using such drying aid type products. It's very rare I dry my car now without applying some product or another in a Wax it Wet kinda way. So in this respect I suppose months and months worth of durability isn't really what I need.

Welcome to the OC from a fellow orange owner. Loving the 370z rims on the 350z. Always said they seem to stand out more on the 350

It's either wishful thinking there Ekona or you've got the beers early this evening No such switch on the 350z ........ maybe on the 370?

Damn, no Wifi......just 5 channels of TV, anyone would think you're back in the 90s! Hope you get out soon

In case you didn't already know, there's a clip connector that just needs a gentle press to release the switch, no force needed. Also when inserting the new switch it can be twisted into place at varying depths so that the brake pedal activates the switch even with the lightest touch on the brakes. Sometimes if it's placed fully seated, when the brake pedal only travels a couple of mm it's not enough to activate the switch.

The zed may be going but hope you stick around.

Gotta love a good beading shot Is it just us blokes who like looking at photos of loads of rounded pert beauties?

Here's some in better light
