    Anybody here able to read Japanese?

    That's a kind gesture Will, thanks very much, I will certainly keep you in mind should there be something I need from one of these places, as it is I was just being curious as to what savings could be made.

     

    I found some great online used car parts places in Japan last night, you know the kind like we have here where dealers from all over the UK are emailed what you are looking for. It's amazing what boredom can drive a man to google...

     

    Ps, could probs be a good idea to remove your email addy so it doesn't end up being a spam target...

     

    Thanks again

     

    Thanks Martin I have. Its already a spam target. :surrender:

    Plane crash at Robin Hood Airport

    After watching the video of the previous accident, I came across this

     

     

    Operated for Manx2, I knew the First Officer who sadly lost his life. Here's a link to the report if anybody is interested. All it states are facts. Unfortunately some poor decisions were taken, which lead to the tragic outcome.

    Just read the report. very sad, 6 people died and 6 also badly injured.

     

    I agree not the right decision was made.

    Thanks for that choptop, I've found an even better Japanese auction site that is chockablock with zed stuff, page after page www.buyee.jp even a Nismo exhaust for DE on there @ roughly £230 and English translation.

     

    I understand about import fees and shipping as up until recently I used to import ecigs on a monthly basis from China where DHL air frieght would cost me around $150 USD.

     

    Might be worth firing off an email to one of the specialist importers based over here to find out about wiring looms and such like, £300 for a brand new OEM headlight for late model Zeds ain't to be sniffed at if it fits ok, let's say with duty and freight £500 or so it's still cheaper than 700-950 like I can find over here.

     

    If you want an email translated into Japaneese just write it out in English send it to me and my "better

     

    half" will translate it into Japaneese for you and send it. :thumbs:

    I think your headphone socket needs replacing Will. Not expensive to buy but very fiddly.

    Or the switch embedded in the socket that diverts sound from phone to ear piece may be jammed or dirty.

    1st of all dip the jack plug of your earphones in some alcohol the same stuff you use for cleaning screens

    and components.

    Then rapidly push in and out 8-10 times and try that.

    If this does not cure it then a replacement socket is about £12 - £25 dependant on where you go.

    The cheap £5 ones on fleabay do not last long.

    Hope this helps

     

    Thanks mate. Appreciate that, will do.

     

    But I do like the idea of sticking it in my ear..!!! :thumbs:

    Its on Japanese eBay and its second hand, SCROLL DOWN AND ITS IN ENGLISH...!!! :surrender:

     

    Yeah i got all that before, but the English bit shows no price at all or whether its a BIN or Auction, I actually have a feeling its a USA company listing on Ebay Japan, so the unit would be no good over here.

     

    What bits do you want translated, as its also listed in USD, yes agree Jap cars are same as us,

     

    but US Companies sell lights to us on Fleabay, I know I bought some. :scare:
