Can you give details, maybe my local auto electrics place could also get the mod and fit it. He didnt give any details at the time only to say he was aware of the mod from other auto electricians who had fitted it. He gets his new list of modifications on 22nd of this month, so Ill know more then. However it might be worth ringing your guys to enquire cos the might have the mod already. If I get any further info I'll pass it on though

Had a chat with a guy yesterday who runs an Auto electrician business in Jarrow. He says a mod is available (and hes getting it in at the back end of this month) to make the indicator clicking sound come through the speakers in order to alert you if theve been left on. Needless to say Im booked in Also he said he can fit a "Total closure pack" that closes the windows and turns the wing mirrors inboard when you lock the car from the fob. Approx costs are £70 for the control unit and £ 50 to fit it.

Ahhh, cum on, Ive tilted me head back upright now and he still wont stop. By the way I havnt seen one of those for a long time now. I seem seem to remember it was quite useful now and again, cant remember for what though

Oooops scratch that. Very unfortunate

Hi, its dopey from the land of udopia calling. I’m sure it must be obvious to all but my countrymen but what U supposed to see when U tilt your head to the left I only get sawdust on the floor!

Got mine from Alex and fitted them the other day. Doddle to fit and look just great. Now find I’m touching the breaks all the time just to show them off. So everyone stay well back till the novelty wears off

PLODDING, How the very hell dare YOU. Sedate maybe, considdered possibly but plodding NEVER. Ive got my o-60 time down to 14 sec I'll have you know. Now if I could only get the wife out of the car Im sure Id manage13sec. I would guess that you get about 40mpg too Yehhh! Listen, youve got to be prepared to cast caution and fuel costs to the wind to get accelleration times like mine.

Maybe the cancelling mechanism can be adjusted and optimised cos some seem to have little in the way of problems, I'll check when I get the time. Thanks to Mr GIXXERUK for the info others for input

That sounds bloody luverly . Must admit I’ve stayed clear of such exhausts cos I thought they'd sound a bit like a boy racer with a hole in the exhaust. HOW MUCH to buy and have fitted??

Yeh my local dealer said the same thing (an easy get out phrase). I might take a look at the mechanism to see if it can be moded but if not will revert to getting the indicators to make more sound. By the way does anyone know if the maintenance cd's on ebay are any good or if anyone on the forum can supply CD's especially with good wiring diagrams.

Got 25K from the rear bridgestones, the front ones are still legal and Ive now done 32K. I dont thrash the car

Is it just me or do others have problems with the indicators. I posted a couple of years ago regarding a near miss I had. Id just made a left turn and a little way down the road a woman pulled out from the left thinking I was turning in . I gave her hell, fingers horn (not that sort) and verbals only to discover that my left indicator was still going. The same things happened a couple of times since. Yes I know Ive got the blinking lights on the dash; but I cant always see them given my hand position on the wheel and dont hear the ticking cos of the music. Anyone know where the flasher unit is located. Going to see if I can mod it to make it louder. If not, then plan B

The video of this product looks very impressive; however I spoke to a mate of mine who has been to Sunderland for a demo in case he could add it to his range of services in his new business. He doesn’t believe it’s as good as the video suggests. He says it seems very good for light scratches but that it can’t handle anything deeper. He said that stone chips and deep scratches are improved but that they can still be seen. This was also the opinion of the guy showing him how the system works. This guy did say that with a lot of effort you could possibly get a good result but never as good as a respray. He also said you had to buy the complete kit and couldn’t just buy the colour for your particular car. PITTY

All the best young man but at 41 your still a mere slip of a lad. I was 61in March, and that number really hurts. I’m now an official member of the old farts and grumpy old men clubs.

Not North Manchester young man, geordie land, Newcastle upon Tyne. Thanks for the thought though! In actual fact Ive a mate who has a mate who does body work and I could take it there but because Im also thinking of having the front bumper repainted I got the main dealer to price the two jobs while I was in one day.

Thanks Stanski. It’s a small dent that happened when I reversed out of the garage and into the plastic front bumper insert of the wife’s car. I did get a quote last week at the main dealers for £182. Might give it a try, anyway, nothing much to loose

Put a small dent in the rear plastic bumper. Anyone got any idea if this could be removed by heating it and pushing it out or is it a body shop job?

Just got off the phone to Steve at Holdcroft ref the rear lights. Their quoted price for the pair is £237.64 incl of vat and delivery. Apparently there taking 35% off as the usual retail price would be £361.82. He confirmed that they are Nissan originals and that a small amount of plastic has to be cut from the connecting plug. Didn’t get into group buys as Shire 350Z is going down that route.

Been reading this with interest but getting a little confused. I’ve seen the Holdcroft lights on ebay for £229.99 + £8.99 delivery. Since they give members a 20% discount I assume the total delivered cost will be £229.99 – 20% = £183.99 + £8.99 = £ 192.98. Why pay £240? Or am I missing something

Top man, thanks for that Andy, I think I'll order a set... Ditto. I think I'll go for thr Holdcroft lights as well. Thanks for everyones input. Cheers

These look quite good but not sure about ordering from the States. Had a quick look for shipping charges but couldn’t find any info. I'll take another look. Cheers mate

Thanks for the contribution but not my taste I’m afraid

Where’s the best place to get a deal on LED rear lights cos I’m thinking of fitting some?

Fifty quid can’t be bad. On reflection I think I’ve been ripped. When I took the car in for an estimate I agreed with this guy that the best option was to cut out and replace the whole flanged assembly, that’s why I mentioned it in my earlier post. When I picked the car up this guy's buddy had done the job and said it was OK. Taking the picture surprised me and highlighted that the job had been done differently. Think I’ll go back and complain.
