how big a monitor can you fit in the cubby of a 04 plater ? as im thinking i probably wont use satnav much (got it on my phone any hows) so buying a double din for the screen only is abit of a waste when i already have decent HU that can support an external monitor and reverse cam (coming from 2 cars with sensors im gonna need it !) hasnt anyone else just fitted a screen in the cubby , if so whats it like getting the wiring up there ect ? edited to remove vast typos , post now readable

yeah the look on 3fiddyz's car is amazing , always loved the Z interior . not super modern oer say but just looks so driver focused , some cars you wack in the gauges and huge hugging seats and they look aftermarket no matter how well they lok but in the Z they look meant to be there.

had a skim over the hpi site and that doesnt seem to say anything about import checks which is odd , the my text check came back as a 350z, 2 owner ( matches what i thought) no scrap etc. do the uk cars have any sort of folding mirrors or buttons by the mirrors controls ? -

cant remember and i dont have any pics as the advert is gone ! which should it be so i can try and check ? i thought that the imports had the indactors on the wrong side also , this was normal UK side and the wingmirros didnt do any funky dipping althougb there was a switch i couldnt figure out by the mirrors if it is an import i dont wnat the car/ want some serious money off so i need to find out for sure before i pick up the car. i ran the reg through my text check and got nothing about import so i dont know if that would show -

Yup, its easy, theres a couple of screws on the back and the silver bits come off with the attached cables and plug You'll want a set of star bits to do it all, but I forget the sizes you need cheers , got the star bits OK . anyone got any dea how muhc a brand new on is ? dunno why but a new wheel seems to add alot the newness of the feel for me , going to chnge the gear know pretty quick too as im not so keen on the standard one oh and swa out the bose for double din wiht nav hang on not even got it yet and im already rippin it to pieces in my head !
