Well got the dash out in around 2 hours the other night (much time spent wasted trying to get it out when i'd forgotten a few bolts ) So anyway, is there anything I haven't thought of that I could fix while i've got everything out? My list so far is: - finish interior retrim and reassemble - replace heater core (duh) - fix lifting dash - give everything a bloody good clean Anything else that I might have missed?
go through all your electrical connectors and all the wiring. if you've replaced the stereo yourself, and have only wrapped the wiring together go through and solder all your wiring together. prob not needed but will the dash is out you may aswell clean up all the wiring.
good man, but if u hav a alarm system and the unit isnt very well hiden then now is the time to put it in a goood hardish spot to get to, and if u dont hav an alarm system, u should put one in
did all your heater/aircon controls work sweet? hook it up before u put the dash back in and test that air comes out of each window properly etccc other than that, just make sure u put everything back in sweet, if a screw is missing get another one. if a screw is not tightening and just spinning use another one. its annoying when people put their dash back in with things vibrating and making noises.
Good ideas guys. So to add to the list: - clean out all ducting pipes/tubes for aircon/heater. I knew there was something i'd heard that was a good idea to do, due to all the dust. (yes chad, aircon is working sweet) - wire in my gauges! Glad you mentioned that lol - I don't have an alarm as of yet but I have an immobiliser. Switches for that are well hidden but if I have the money I may also install an alarm. But i'm good at hiding things anyway and I have bloody long arms
Yes I was actually considering that, but might be too much of a hassle? Basically just trying to 'finish' my project zed and prepare her for sale. Don't want to go troppo but if that's something that would appeal to buyers I may do it
What kind of moron puts thier alarm under thier dash? where most normally put under dash, i have dangling fish hooks.
if you need heater core try this: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/NEW-NISSAN-H...=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item335fab83a9
LED bulbs are easy to install and only cost about $20. They go into a light bulb baton just like your lights at home. Good thread. I'm considering pulling my dash out and doing some work now.
thought id ask here instead of making up a new thread am i right in saying that the air con wont blow air into the car without the heater box in the car ?
