  1. well here's mine. Half a Zed anyway. Still building.....
  2. I can do what I like really because I'm the one prepping the panels and painting. Gonna get the car finished first then Ill fettle things to see whats what. Its just the time issue and making sure the booth is free that day for me. :-/ thanks guys. Good input.
  3. Dan, I had a good look at em tonight and your right. I can take em out and drill bigger holes and push em through from behind so that the black surround that you see is not visible with only the shallow lens popping through. I'm gonna try that. Not everyday I agree with ya Dan. Lol
  4. it is an option, which I did consider but for now and for the sake of my build going that much quicker I just did it that way. I have that option later on if I cant live with it as it is. Theres quite a lot of work involved is doing it though. Its not the case of mounting them from behind. Because its GRP you need to mould in an internal return on the cut out so that no GRP core is on show. By next year though I might start over again and go for a complete new look or sell it. I dont get attached to cars like some, so dont mind experimenting and cutting things up.
  5. I think its just the done thing to put mayoslip in with the oil change. Get a report from nissan and get them to ring the Warranty people to sus out whats covered, and if so, get them to do the work or chose another to do the work. Try the oil change first though I would. See what others on here say??
  6. haha. I know you'd comment. So...er...nope. I like em. Not everyones cuppa I know, but im ok with it.
  7. try some shoe poilsh? trouble is its matt so you dont want to use anything shiny or glossy. ??? Maybe someone will come along who's done it before will know?
  8. My wife told me yesterday after 9hrs straight in the garage " this has to be the last one that you are doing and let that be the end of it please, you look tired and grumpy" lol I said yes obviously, but you can never say yes as you all know, as it goes on and on and on and never ends. Anyway, latest pic of the cookie monster project. Getting there, there is light somewhere........or is there?? Keep watching, until next week....................
  9. im a DIYer so would deffo be interested in the wireing set up and even more so with the keyless hack.
  10. fooooc thats big. Well done getting your planning Chris. Whilst I'm on here, I notice that the 370 will feature in Banzai next month??? True?
  11. Any idea where you would put it? ashtray cover perhaps? Would like to do this too but would not know which wires to tap into?
  12. As my car is currently in bits with most of the panels off the car, I thought it was a good oppertunity to mess around with the wing mirrors. So attacked it with an angle grinder and fitted these from behind. Hope you all like. just a test fit at the moment but you get the idea. These will be painted cookie monster blue as with the car then half wrapped in carbon with the indicators tinted. If there is enough interest, I may off to do this service for ya all if I'm 100% happy with mine.
  13. Yep i think ill have to. No other option. Thanks guys.i really wanted the drls to be on full chat with the side lights but hey ho cant have it all. Cheers
  14. Kyle you bang on.....Indeed they have fried the relay that I bought for the DRL's. So need anothor one. Im starting to think I may as well just have the DRL's working with an on/off rocker switch in the Cab. :-/ So does anyone know what and where is the initial power feed for the HID is located, other than tapping into the switch / stalk. I cant be the only one doing this. What have others done when swapping their front bumper reflectors to DRL's? Thanks guys for your input thus far. Frustration is not the word !!
  15. yes, for the cost, just do it. You obviously have doubts or is bugging you because you've posted it up on here, so yep !
  16. Ok. My new bumper has a pair of drls on them. Ive bought a relay off ebay and requires me to tap into the main beam [ the hid xenons] so that the drls fade as the main beam kicks in to meed with the new laws. But im really confused as to what colour the positive wire is going into the back of this bulb. Ive peeled the metal braiding back and there are three lught coliyrs pastel like wires. Is one of yhese the pisitive or are my looking totally the wrong place to tap into the main beam?? This is now holding my build up. Been out there all night tonight and cannot seem to hit the correct wire. Im stumped. Help!!!
  17. Just wondered, as its baffling the hell out of me. My 05 350 has a H7 bulb just below the projector lamp. So, is the H7 bulb the HID bulb with the ballasts? and if so, what is behind the projector lens?? Sorry I'm asking this as I know its been covered many times but there is also a lot of ambiguity regards to bulb fitments on this car. I was advised on another post to get 501 or 508 indicator bulb (forget which type) for the headlamp and turns out that its not a bayonette fitting but a large wedge fitting T TYPE bulb which also I probably need a resistor for as I'm putting in Amber LED's. Please guys, for the sake of my sanity, can you please advise and make it a sticky. lol thanks
  18. why not just be up front and post details of the cost etc. It seems a lot of members want these, so would need contact name and number and price?
  19. Id say that a Rocket Bunny item. About 200 squid for a replica on ebay
  20. ebay do loads under £50.00 with full HD. I am thinking of one too once the Cookie Monster project is complete.
  21. what a turn on. A woman holding a tool. Girly mechanics that is.
  22. Been playing since i was 8. Now 46. Been in various bands over the years. Just play for fun now and teaching my 8 yr old daughter. Anyone else out there??
