Autolead are good for stuff like that.

Like the centre console, i painted the one in my old car silver, looked the same, was going to leave mine alone but like the look of that :nod:

Got the DIN plate from the guy above.

Got a reply back from Perfectrun on a load of parts:

*B5570-85F00 - CONT -MIRROR CLOSE: ?69.55
*96369-85F00 - POWER FOLD UNIT -MIRROR,RH: ?28.58
*KU000-TV315 - TV3 TOUCH-UP PAINT: ?3.57
*H5910-85F08 - PROTR KIT-RR BMPR: ?251.62
*H5832-85F00 - FIN-RR BMPR: ?31.45
*K6020-85F08 - BMPR-AERO FR : ?692.11

Sea freight on all that lot would be ?333.66, which isn't bad considering the bumper...


Interestingly, Japanparts quoted:

*B5570-85F00 (new number B5570-89910) - CONT -MIRROR CLOSE: ?45.04
*96369-85F00 - POWER FOLD UNIT -MIRROR,RH: ?38.40
*KU000-TV315 - TV3 TOUCH-UP PAINT: ?6.64

?17.90 air freight.

Chris, have you got p/ns for the ECU and loom?

 

[Yakozan]

Ouch.
You could get a complete bodykit for the same price of that front bumper
I saw that japanparts has the URAS kit in FRP cheap. 100000 JPY + shipping

It doesn't come prepainted and with perfect fitment though. And it's FRP and not plastic

 

[Nicely]

That's the point though. Being the Nissan original, its plastic and colour coded. So no cracking, no bodging and no painting. Taking that into account, its actually not that bad. Better price than most....

I believe Japanparts quote for the bumper (not listed) is better...

 

[S15R]

plastic always = :thumbs:

Chris, have you got p/ns for the ECU and loom?

nope, my fast installation had to be removed in order to comply with company policies

On the bright side :thumbs: my first delivery from Japanparts arrived today includes my auto mirror folding controller and clear side markers...

well packaged and shipped quickly.

 

[Nicely]

Will be interested in how easy/hard the controller is to fit, as I'm probably going to get one.

well.. the instructions seem pretty straightforward... (if you have a PhD in advanced electronic engineering and are fluent in Japanese)...

Ah. Well, when you've done all that, please write a guide.

that goes without saying... I just have a small problem right now... the 'genius' people that clear the snow in my yard have completely blocked my garage in meaning I can't get my car out. The 'snow hill' is now about 1.5 meters high, 4 meters long and 3 meters wide... the chances of them shifting it now it's had a chance to freeze and thaw a few times is somewhat less than zero... which means no car until it melts in April

guess I'll just keep staring at my parts until then

The solution to your problems is one of these.

Just be sure to cover the garage in something fireproof

is that for the snow/ice pack - or for the morons that blocked me in?

Not sure. Use it on both just to be sure

I guess it's to cold to use salt?

 

[Nicely]

Probably. Be OK with some pepper and a side salad though...

 

[elizium]

I think the salt requirements could be pretty high!! Anyway my doctor ordered me to stay off salt.

How much does the auto folding unit weigh?

few hundred grams... not much

 

[Nicely]

Just trying to work out the weight for that, a mirror power fold unit (just the unit, not the whole mirror), a touch-up paint and one of these metal exhaust surrounds
