  1. Have the 350Z just with 20" tyres/alloys as the only mod and a Nissan X-Trail. Got 9 years no claims with the 350Z and got 2 years for the Nissan X-Trail. My 350Z wasn't due for renewal for another 10 weeks but my X-Trail was due. I got Admiral for my X-Trail last year and it ended up being cheaper to go with another insurance company separate. Anyhow, this year Admiral phoned with the usual requote and when I said I had another car but its unlikely you can do it cheaper as you couldn't last year they said they would put it through and see what it comes out as : Last year 2011-12 as seperate vehicles and 1 year less insurance no claims I got : X-Trail - Admiral - 1 year no claims and one named driver - £542 350Z - Elephant - 8 years no claims and no named driver, fully comp & protected £342 TOTAL 2011-12 for the two cars -> £884 This year 2012-13 as multicar policy with the 20% additional discount on both vehicles I got : X-Trail - Admiral - 2 years no claims and one named driver - £368 350Z - Admiral - 9 years no claims and no named driver, fully comp & protected £211 (pro-rata'd for the year minus 10 weeks) TOTAL 2012-13 for the two cars -> £579 I thought the £211 ( even pro rata'd it only ends up at about £260 give or take for the year which I was pretty impressed with ) Just to double check, once I'd done an elephant, moneysupermarket and confused search and found nothing near to this, I then phoned a telephone broker that I know that can often beat what you see on internet. Name 'Computerquote', tel: 0800 3285535 but he said to take the £579 as the best he could find was £1000 upward. Admiral also said that even though my other insurance was 10 weeks away and therefore just shy of 10 month, they would still count it as a full year's no claims. I'm very happy this year but a little worried that admiral don't try and really bump it up next year, once I'm in so to speak. It is less hassle doing it in one go but I'll still shop around next year for two single quotes to see if it can beat Admiral's multicar policy. Hope this helps anyone looking for insurance. For information, I got this insurance sorted in March 2013.
  2. Hi, Does anyone know where the best place to get a passenger side Xenon headlight for a 350Z 2004 GT UK model ? I've cracked the bottom black part of mine and dented the front of it slightly. It's cosmetic damage as the light still works but looking for a relatively cheap replacement. Any ideas where I could get one from and how easy they are to fit would be really appreciated... Thanks ! Adam
  3. Thanks for all your help on this. I've now decided to go for a pioneer aftermarket after all... I just will have to save up to get it after Christmas sometime. In the meantime, I have a small dent in my left hand headlamp and the underlying bumber... chipsaway company came out and said I really need to replace the headlamp first before they do the work on repairing the bumper. The lamp works fine and so I believe it may just be cosmetic. I saw on ebay some chrome outlines that go around the headlight that appear as if they would cover it up but not sure if the damage would prevent this...any help on thsi would be much appreciated. Also, does anyone know where I could get a cheap left hand Light, I assume it's a xenon one as standard with the UK GT pack... Thanks very much on this... Adam
  4. Thanks for all the replies. Really appreciate it I don't really have the funds for a pioneer or aftermarket head unit else I probs would do. Obviously the value of the car will be less if I have a sticking CD unit even with a ipod hack. The comment regarding re-programming - are you saying if I get another Clarion PP2596L (Which I think is the one I need for a 2004 UK model) then it won't work at all ? I will pm R35LEE although I'm looking at around 50 quid for a second hand head unit so when you say contact him do you mean to repair my old one or something else as wouldn't the petrol and time and everything involved in repairing it would be more than 50 quid for a new unit wouldn't it ?
  5. Does anyone know where I can get a cheap 350Z Bose head Unit for a March 2004 UK 350Z ? (I think its made by Carrion or something like that) I'm not too bothered if its used or refurb just so long as it will fit in a 2004 350Z, works okay and is a decent price. My current one keeps sticking on about 4 of the 6 CDs every now and again. Any help on this really appreciated. Adam
