try this, works a treat and cos youve got mixers you can bathe your car in gentle warm water, spoiled http://www.gardencentre.co.uk/images/large/2789.jpg

Its my neighbors house i have to drive by im sure they wont mind me making some foam structural alterations I wake them up at 6.45 every morning with the sound reverborating off thier wall they should be immune to my annoyance by now I always end up with something stupid in the background lol I managed to get floating bird poo once just before it hit the freshly cleaned car. (will have to dig out that photo... ) sodding birds

Welcome Im sure some helpfull soul will be along momentarily

Cheers guys, done Thanks. I peel cars apart to test for a living and dont give a t**s but when its my own i get all panic'y and noobish

OK, so im willing to give this a go but i need an instrument cluster! a manual 2004 one would be lovely. Anyone got one hanging about they wouldnt mind getting rid of? I looked on Shebay but no joy either that or i can go to the breakers.

In place of Bose? sorry silly question of my own.

yeah i just finished reading the thread here: http://my350z.com/forum/exterior-and-interior/429871-led-conversion-for-03-05-a-3.html anything you want to know is there Im thinking if i get hold of a spare cluster i can fiddle away to get it to work how i want. it all really hangs on how tight the space is tbh. need to get my hands on one.

http://www.led.net/products/ProductsDetails.aspx?WP=C421K446#1485 after a really quick search so at least we know they exsist. problem is if they are surface mount adding in any kind of control for the tri colour will be difficult <--optimistic anyone know where there is a pic of the instrument cluster with the front ripped off?

here we go: Hmm i think a spare dash is a must!! will make a nice centerpeice on the coffee table Where do i get a spare dash....? This does indeed look like a big job. got to work out if its going to look enough to be worth it... ontop of all the work that this guy is doing i would have to add in circuitry to control the colour of the LED's, possibly on thier own little network... if i have a spare dash hanging around i think i would reupholster it at the same time this is how good plans form...! (and take over your life)

Hmm thanks for the input guys I know i can work out the electronics side of it. the fitting in the Z though i have not a scooby doo about? ive never taken the dash apart as ive only had it for a few days Going to read now. [someone just turned the heating on full blast in the office i may not live long.

ok cheers sounds good, ill wander in and get them to take a look at the new car.

cheers i'll hang on to see if anyone has any feedback on the cov one first, just an easier trip.

Has anyone thought of putting tri coloured LED's in the dash so you can pick what colour you want? I was thinking you could have the middle gauge blend to red when revs are high I figure if im going to pull it apart i may aswell do a proper job of it all. So if your wondering what a tri colour LED is then: http://www.maplin.co.uk/noframes/Tri-Colour_LED_26361/Tri-Colour_LED_26361.htm and if your a little more interested in how it could be controlled then: http://www.epemag3.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=330&Itemid=1 This may be a plan!!

Hey guys n Gals. Was wondering if anyone had any experience with west way nissan coventry? I want to get the new car looked at to see what needs sorted asap so i can get the dealer who sold it to me to pay! I hear lots of clicking. Gearbox feels like sychromesh could be poop also I just need someone who actually knows what they are listening for to have a prod. (Dealers prob arent the best plan then ) I will need them to confirm it though so i have proof its there for the other garage.

Ah, so my lovely shiney new car 04 plate 22000miles has this problem. thought it was quite dodgy and after coming out of a 6 hour drive i am pretty sure its showing the signs. I can only assume because it did so few miles in its first 3 years the problem didnt rear its ugly head untill out of warranty and noones bothered to sort it. the absolute bonus though is that i took out a year warranty when i bought it, 300 quid well spent if you ask me! phew!

or not hhahahaha

ok i still liked it cos it filled all the boyish needs i have haha

probably. he shouldnt have taken the glory. the stig is a symbol. queue batman quote.

nnoooooooooooooo! LOL he eats rock!!!!! its not him i wont believe it! but im sure it is. lol. he shouldnt have beheaded himself.

hi fellow new owner. honestly what a great pick up day youll have. hope its sunny!!!

it was good but not the greatest. i liked it but it did feel like a cash cow taking the liked parts of the first one and repeating them with bigger budget, better graphics, closer perving etc. megan fox though

hye guys, it did indeed fall into place. ford actually did the mot within 3 hours of me dropping it off and i drove up to scotland really late. good news though! ive got the car been driving round all weekend and its been awesome. will post more on moday when im at work.
