Any book recommendations?
Da Vinci Code is a good one

I like that too.........Do you do stand up?

Fender2004

Do the bulbs just pull out or twist and pull, thanks again.

From what I remember they just pull out, but then again my memory is not what it was

Fender2004

I replaced mine by removing the radio which allows you to gain access and replace the bulb. Some of them are stiff and don't just pull out, if so you need to undo the two blots at the bottom of the radio slot. Once these are removed the controls come forward enabling you to change the bulb.

Fender2004

Is this just a case of the law catching up with the technology.

Fender2004

I normally check the dealer price for small items as a lot of the time they are cheaper.
When I was looking for the cover for the cruise control it was cheaper buying new than second hand off eBay!

Fender2004

Thanks for that I'll let you know if there
are any developments.

Fender2004

I think his car is blue I've texted him the info but getting no response, so I don't know if he has changed
his mind or what?

Fender2004

I did contact the seller he said that there were 4 types of headlight? (News to me) and I must have the difficult one. He said that he normally had to make a 2mm gruve in the headlight to make them fit. So if you had to do that it must mean that the angel eyes were a stand size just put into differe...

Fender2004

Thanks for that I've passed your info on to my friend

Fender2004

Does anyone have a hard top for sale with the fixing kit?
It's not for me but for a friend who says he hasn't got time to go on forums

Fender2004

I think we all like our Z3's no matter which engine we have.

If you were to sell of course

I agree any new owner of any older car like a Sprite will want as much history of the car as possible, I know I would.

Fender2004

Thank for all the info but it looks like I'll not be installing them after all as the angel eyes I bought will not fit into the head light, even though they were sold with a photo of a Z3 on the sellers page :head: I can't ask for my money back as I painted the white wires black so that they wouldn'...

Fender2004

These BMW boxes are expensive you know

Fender2004

Did you take both sets of wires to the fuse box or join them together and just take one wire to the fuse box?

Fender2004

I'm busy installing Southernboy's clear indicators lens covers in the head lights, so while I was on I thought that I would also install some angel eyes. I know that you can power the angel eyes by connecting to the side lights, but you have to have the side light on for the angel eyes to work. If p...

Fender2004

The price looks very appealing, as from the press reports the price starts around £20000!

Fender2004

are you sure its failed and not just stuck...very common problem ? Hey, I'm not sure to be honest. It originally worked when i got the car, but stopped soon after... I'll check via search function for any threads in regards to this. Cheers My seat motor wasn't working and that was just a matter of ...

Fender2004

When you fit the cruise control does a light come on the dash to indicate that the cruise control is on?

Fender2004

Welcome to the forum hope you enjoy your ownership of your Z3

if any thing goes wrong I'm sure someone will be able to help you out

Fender2004

You should be on commission

Fender2004

Must of missed it the first time unless I just forgot

Fender2004

I don't know if anyone will be interested but on Sunday 12 Oct on I TV 4 at 09.10 there are highlights of this event.

Fender2004

I have the brick type alarm and I replaced the battery in one if them as it seemed to be difficult to get it to work. After the battery change the alarm worked fine, as I have two brick type units, I put it in the draw as I thought that it would be fine as it had a new battery in. I tried it the oth...

Fender2004

Thanks to all organiser's, and to Robert T for the use of his gazebo, which believe it or not we used to shelter from the sun!!! And also for the cakes.
Think we should have a bake off next year.

Great day out looking forward to next year.

Fender2004

I think it just depends on which weather forecast you look at as none of them are guaranteed to be correct

Fender2004

Weather forecast looks good cloudy but dry.

Fender2004

Unless you use a hard top, be sure that the plastic rear window is fully warmed up, before putting the roof down otherwise you may have to replace it.

Fender2004

First signs of getting older, the memory goes.

Fender2004

Great looking car and welcome enjoy

Fender2004

I agree some companies will take up to 15 years ncb others only 9, so you loose 6 years ncb going from one company to the other.

Fender2004

Sorry to hear about your accident glad you're ok, some insurance companies only deduct 2 years ncb after an accident. So as already said check everything out before you make a decision.

Fender2004

Looks great have a great day. See you at Lotherton Hall next weekend.

Fender2004

Is this your next project?

Fender2004

Just have to hope that the strike gets sorted soon

Fender2004

Hi Barry just to let you know the clear lenses arrived safe and sound today. Just have to fit them now

Fender2004

OK so I think we have established that everyone coming from the south are meeting at Mcd's at Redhouse and that some coming from the north are meeting those at Lotherton but we seem to have frustratingly got off the very important subject of the cake!! Where's that coming from and when will it be m...

Fender2004

Sorry fender. I think you have got the wrong end of the stick I mean all you guys that we're coming down from the north of lotherton to meet and roll in together, I hopefully will be drinking coffee that Brian has bought me at mc ds Regards Corky :lol: Getting confusing now I'll Just meet you at Lo...

South via a few country roads rather than A1 most of the way.

Brian

Ok Brian no problem just see you there if you can let me know what time you are arriving so I can drive in with you.

Fender2004

Have a look in the knowledgebase there is a good guide there.

Fender2004

Wetherby services is always a good place to get together and then have a run down the back roads to lotherton

Regards corky

That would be good for me what time do you think you will be there?

Fender2004

I think that I'll just meet you at Lotherton Hall as I'm coming from the north.
Can you confirm what time you will roughly be arriving at Lotherton hall and I'll just tag on the end.

Fender2004

Are you still meeting at Boroughbridge in Morrisons carpark? If so count me in.
Think I am the only one

I think Mrs Fender2004 was going to make some cup cakes and bring them along.
Not that I'm trying to use the cakes as a sweetener

Fender2004

Well done

I bet you can see through the window now?

Fender2004

I had trouble with my bonnet switch, and all I did was to place a small sticky pad on the top of the switch. This must have pushed the plunger just a little further down to make the connection.

It worked for me

Fender2004

I have been told that these plagues will be sold at the Gaydon show.

Fender2004

There's a new series of Wheeler Dealers starting in September and on the 29th of Sept I believe that is the show for doing the Z1 so looking forward to that.

It also states that the programs are subject to change?

Fender2004

I'll keep you informed and also I'll have to purchase some angle eyes! unless you sort out the OEM look

Fender2004

I'm interested in buying a set off you, but I'd Like to wait a few weeks until I take the car off the road for the winter, then I can take as ling as I like to install them. I was also thinking of doing the angel eyes at the same time to save taking the head light apart twice. Can I ask when you ins...
