Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 A Stubby Check me out !!!! I can now roll up to meets and hold my head up high A MASSIVE MASSIVE thankyou to VIK & NIXY For the best Birthday pressie I could have wished for.... Love you both xx Im made up guys As you can see below the car has been completely transformed The lines of the car have been sensationalised and dare I say it... I think the ZED has gained more power as there is not as much drag now Fitting Difficulty level : Sober 1 , Hungover 8 Guide : The first task is to remove the old aerial, this can be tricky after a skinful the night before and I would suggest using grippers but put a towel around the base of the aerial in case you slip and damage your body work... Next bit I found particularly hard, I enlisted the help of an elderly neighbour for this !! On the end of the aerial is a screw thread, you need to line this up with where your old aerial used to be and then errm Screw it on.. (A little tip for you is 'Lefty Loosey......Righty Tighty' ) As we are putting the Aerial on, we will be opting for 'Righty Tighty'. Here is the finished result.... Frightening I know Vik/Nix Seriously guys im well chuffed.... Thank you dearly Quote

narcotix Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 A job well done! I think I might just have the courage to get myself a stubby too now after reading such a comprehensive guide! Quote
spursmaddave Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 I wish this 'guide' had been around when I got my stubby.... I wasted literally seconds fitting mine that could have been put to much better use Quote
Tarmac@TarmacSportz Posted April 19, 2010 Author Posted April 19, 2010 What is planned next then ?? Tax disc holder Im having trouble with the guide though Quote
nixy Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 don't get one of those alloy ones with tidgy screws its too complex for you! Quote
ATTAK Z Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 I'm not surprised you're having trouble with the tax disc holder .... i's not an easy mod IMO ... I usually get my garage to do it ...... might try the stubby myself though if I can get my head round the guide Quote

mattbowey Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 wish i had seen this. i ordered an s2000 stubby, doesnt look like the ones everyone else and was far more tricky to fit. had to screw a screw thingy into the stubby and then screw it where the old aeriel had been, just to find out i had used the wrong screw thingy and had to unscrew it and swap it for the screw thingy with the different thread. and it doesnt fit as flush. lame. oh well Quote
nixy Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Tarmac's is an S2000 one - in fact I THINK Honda ones are all the same........... Quote
pathfinder123 Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 I wish this guide was around when I fitted my Stubby. The trick seems to be in turning the aerial - not the car. S. Quote
