Azure350z

If you find one around Nottingham that you like and wish to have someone else give their opinion on it then feel free to give me a shout and I'll view he car with you and offer any advice that I can.

I used Oponeo for my winter tyres, saved around £200 over everyone other company I tried.

It looks identical to my 350Z's wheel nuts bar the colour

It's ok in winter. You have to be careful when pulling off or turning on ice or snow but apart from that the car is fine. Last year I ran Michelin pilot super sports through winter and the grip on them in cold temperatures was very poor so this year I ran Michelin Alpin PA4's and the grip was a hell of a lot better. I use my car daily too. Overall it comes down to putting a set of winter tyres on and driving to the conditions, just take it very steady if conditions are bad (although this winter has been very mild). Be very careful when driving down hill as first and second gears don't appear to have speed limiters and turn the traction control off on steep hills as that nearly made me crash once (car was braking one side of the car due to one side slipping on ice). Overall, wit a decent set of winter tyres and careful driving to the condition you should b fine but watch out for others who may not be controlling there car as well as you on ice an snow.

I had exactly the same problem with the same head unit and fascia in my car. I didn't fit the head unit myself, instead I was lazy and got the audio shop to do it. The shop tried many things 1. filing bits off the inside lip of the fascia 2. elongating the holes in the brackets that hold the sides of the head unit so the unit sat further forward when installed 3. A different fascia. What worked In the end was 2 x 5mm thick washers under the brackets above the he unit. So... above of the headunit, under the cubby hole, there are two screws that screw through the headunit bracket and into the dash, place a 5mm thick washer behind each of these brackets and then refit the unit and you should be sorted. Apologies if the above doesn’t make much sense. If you need clarity then let me know and I’ll find a way of explaining it better. This was done on a facelift car but I'm hoping it's pretty much the same on pre facelift. BTW congrats on the headunit, it is very good.
