    3M tape....

    Popped into Halfrauds this afternoon. Guess what - no 3M tape and the guy had clearly no idea what I was talking about. Think I'll try another branch or follow Nixy's advice.

    3M tape....

    depends what he wants it for but silkaflex is better than silicon imo It's for putting a CF lip on. ah mine got wrecked a few weeks back jim and i have just fitted another as i dont like the look without it i just used number plate double sided tape, you can buy it on a roll, works fine thats what the oem one that was fitted by nissan was attached with Cheers, will do.

    ....the double-sided sticky tape for attaching badges and other bits. Anybody know if Halfords stock it?

    Removing seats

    Tim, I seem to remember that you trimmed the door armrests on yours. Is that right? Do you have pictures? Edit - never mind, Tim - I found the thread with your door armrest pics. Looks great.

    Removing seats

    In the guide that GIXXER posted, it says that you have to disconnect the battery if the car has side impact air bags before disconnecting the block under the seats.. Do our JDMs have these? no ours dont have these , but it's always best to disconnect the battery whenever unplugging a block connector as it may throw up a fault light Thanks Tim. Always better safe than sorry!

    Try telling the missus you've just bought some seat covers that fit rather well

    throttle sensor

    I assume that's a typo - you do mean £120 don't you?

    Removing seats

    Thanks to both for helpful replies. Much reassured and now tempted to go ahead (Don't tell her indoors, though! Think she'll notice Alezan leather after two years with black fabric? )
  13. If I want to remove seats for re-trimming, are there any potential problems with electrical connections? Is it necessary to disconnect the battery before removal, for example? Doesn't seem to be anything in the guides about this.
  14. If I had known you were after it Nixy, I would have conceded earlier! It's a pity that one of us at least didn't win it, though. I'm going to keep looking for one of these. Wonder who did win it? - nobody on here by the looks of it. It did occur to me that the reason that the JDM did not come with this item as standard is that the Japanese are more law-abiding than us and they don't feel the need to hide what's in the boot.
  15. I've just been outbid for it. Anyone know where else I can get one of these?

    HDR Tests

    The Honda stubby is the one most people go for. They are available on eBay right now.

    HDR Tests

    Thanks for that - in the old days we used to call that bracket exposures - you could choose the best negative to print from your contact sheet. The difference now is the ability to combine the exposures to achieve these brilliant effects. Oh, by the way, you need a stubby.
  18. Thanks for the info. I take it that is a good system?
  19. Is the UK DVD player for the SatNav only, or does it feed AV signals to the screen and speakers as well? The reason I ask is that the JDM DVD part name has AV and Navi on it, while the UK part name only has Navi.
  20. Hope you get something sorted for servicing.
  21. Don't know how I missed that before. Would bring tears to a glass eye!

    HDR Tests

    I'm thinking of investing in a Canon 400D because I have a few Canon lenses I could use with it. Can anybody explain in simple terms what HDR is?
