  1. A lot of the light are routed through the hazard switch. I has similar issues, and once I cleaned up the hazard switch all my lights worked properly. Just a though if you have not been in that switch yet.
  2. Here is a general guide to the relays. There are two on the passenger kick panel one called acc. and one for the rear hatch. I seem to remember a flasher relay over there too.
  3. Car parts manual shows as "Relay For Heat Glass"
  4. I thought that relay was for the Hatch defroster? I could be wrong. I don't think it is as turn signal flasher though, they are the round 2 wire canister looking ones.
  5. It does look like Nissan still sell them and a better price too. Looks like darom has it sorted out.
  6. Here is the link for the fan blade at ZCD. I have always felt their shipping was kind of high priced, but that would also be part of the price. I would be about half of that price but it would be a used fan. I would check for cracks if interested but all will show some wear. They show an 8 blade and I have seen 7 blade fans as well. Z Car Depot IncCooling Fan Blade Radiator OEM 240Z 260Z 280ZFan Blade Mechanical OEM 240Z 260Z 280Z - 200-460 (). New OEM plastic fan blade for Datsun 240Z -260Z-280Z 1970-78.
  7. I think it can be unbolted with the fenders on. just enough room with a swivel, a bent wrench, some friends and a 6 pack. lol The backing plates can be retrieved if they fall, use a stick magnet, you might have to remove the ECU, Holding them in place while starting the bolts is another circus act. get some friends back over and a 12 pack. haha!!
  8. They have a hinge mount plate on the inside that will fall when the bolts are removed.
  9. They do still sell "builders" but only if they have all the proper paperwork. Once the cars are in the yard they only sell parts off them. They always post the picture of the complete car from the pre yard lot. That one looks pretty complete, with good parts on it. Too bad it is so far from me.
  10. Probably as close as I'll get is the store sign. lol!!
  11. No biggie, just funning. There are some maybe's. I have a bunch of switches, just not marked as to what they are from. I rely on the visual differences. Graphics, plugs, wires, etc. They did change the switch plugs over the years too. I purchased the headlight and the parking/taillight harness from Dave Irwin long ago and have not had a problem since. I have H4 headlight bulbs and bright tail/ side lights. I did open and clean all my switches myself as well. Made all the difference. Still working well.
  12. I don't think I have ever quoted myself in a reply 😂 New territory!!
  13. Not saying the internal did not change along the way. Part number changes could just be partly related to the graphics on the switch as well. They never sold the internals as separate items that I have heard of.
  14. Daniel Parsignault is Datsuniverse and he's been an eBay player for a long time. I have sold him things and have bought a few things. I liken him California Datsun for "rebuilt parts" That is just my opinion of course.

    Take a picture of the ASAHI stamp on the window, and post it here. The dots tell the dates.
  16. Thanks for the referral, Looks like he's got what he needed. JYJ is a good source.
  17. My 73 has the same bolt you show as the lower attachment. A shorter bolt and inverted star washer. There might have been a paper washer but not that I found. I think there is a plastic washer glued to the inside of the quarter window inner cover that keeps the trim from cracking as you tighten. I seem to remember those washers in other trim I have pulled off.
  18. Convenience is correct, it looks like spellchecker got a hold of the word and decided on what I meant.
  19. I completely understand, Everyone's situation is different. BMW is a lot farther for me too. Sometimes paying a little more works better for the connivence.
  20. Yep, still available. ZCD's shipping charge is what makes me avoid them if I can. I know shipping rates are high but they make a little extra. IMHO In my situation, I order local and pick it up for $5 in gas.
  21. Personally, I like the stock cast look of the E41 tube. The ZT and home grind and polished ones just don't look right to me. IMHO. Maybe if everything was ground and polished. I bought an E41 from Germany.
  22. I get the same error even when using a different browser, Safari and Firefox
  23. Confirmed clear plastic washer and small screw. Round metal "coat hooks" up above were later replaced with a more hook shape in plastic. Seat belt hooks are here. Once they were moved from the seat back.
  24. Zcardepot buys them from Nissan, likely wholesale, then sells them on eBay and still makes some profit. At least their shipping rates are better on eBay than their own site. I also just buy them at my local dealer. no shipping just a short drive.
