    The Jumper harness has been made and installed - and works great - Thank You @SteveJ for the idea and the how to. Next Issues 1 - The power window switches have back lighting so looking for a power source that will come on with the dash lights. 2 - The power door locks have provisions for flashing lights and a horn (see diagram) when locking. Where to tap in for those or can a "jumper" be made? 3 - I have a thrid brake light installed and thinking of making a "jumper" at the right rear tail light for power. @SteveJ thoughts? Thank you for any input.

    @Patcon I purchased this kit many years ago. I do not think that SPAL sells these anymore. However I found other sources whice I think are the same thing. A1 Electric & Brock Universal Power window kit. I have run these with direct power from the battery and they work well. I did clean and lube all of the rollers and guides prior to installing. ( the windows worked very well witrh the hand crank) Installing is pretty easy with the hard part for me is figuring out the wiring and how I want that to look. Also there is no permant damage and can be put back to original. @grannyknot & @SteveJ Thanks for the reponses This is the rough layout for my accessory panel 2 fused power strips (one for constant power and one for switched power) relay for the power windows and control box for the door lock system (upper right) Steve I am assuming this is the Accessory relay? and that I would make the jumper to go between this and the dash harness? Do the black & the red wire just go staight through? and splice into the other two? I have a Vintage 2 wire connector that I could use. (further disscussion?) instead of 2 single connectors (for the output to the fuse panels. Also do you have a splice technique you prefer? Thank You Steve E

    Hi Everyone Looking for help and suggestions for wiring the accessories I have added to my "72" 240Z Added - Power door locks Power windows 2 Power outlets Hatch popper I have 2 fused power strips - my plan was to have one with constant power and one with switched power. thoughts? questions Where is the best places to pick up power? I am mounting these power strips under/behind the blower and don't want to go into the engine compartment if possible. I have more questions but will wait untill I get past this first obstacle. Thank You!

  13. Thanks Steve. I purchased the same motor as SteveJ, it needs the "T" connector. Any idea of the wire gauge needed?

    Kind of organized with my tools (still not that easy to find sometimes) but can not remember how to do somethings. But now that I am using this tool in the digital age I have my picture. Now to keep track of the picture😂

    Thanks Steve Manual Transmission This is just a switch to turn over/start the car from the engine bay. Have attached a picture and the instructions. I last used this 40 years ago and can't remember how I hooked it up. What I have tried so far has not worked. The instructions are little sketchy.

    No Mike I think it gets started by posting "mostly a fun post to push a few buttons" Steve
  24. I have sand and dirt between the rubber gasket (shim?) and the glass that I would like to clean. Is this as straight forward as it seems? Anything to watch out for putting it back together? Thanks! Steve
