dat240zg Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Had the chance to work on the car this weekend and finally feel like I'm making reasonable progress... Got the underhood wiring all but finished - re-reouted, re-wrapped and in its final position. It's nice to only have one main harness all neat and tidy. Also got the Honda wiper motor mounted and wired up and attached to the reconditioned wiper arms. Here is the pic of the wiper valence area - the relays are all mounted and the wires wrapped for (hopefully) the last time. I was surprised with the amount of space that I ended up with: Also, got the new headlights in. These are similar to the ones that a few of the other guys have - the turn signal/parking light is incorporated into the bottome of the lense: Also, got the hood mounted - I tell you what, if you have to replace a fender, don't buy aftermarket!!! I've had more issues with fittment due to that fender than any other part. Problem area for now is the way that the inspection panels (don't) fit.... Shooting for the Christmas break to get her running! (Also...just found out that I'm going to be a Dad!!!!!!!) It's been a great weekend!!!

deja Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Lookin' good. Where did you get the headlights? Congrats on the future father. Wonder what #248 will be like when the kid turns 16, LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dat240zg Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 The headlights are autoloc brand: http://www.thehoffmangroup.com/autoloc/details.lasso?itemid=hl1t I had to modify the inner headlight mounting "ring" just a bit due to the turn signal bulb, but when it is all assembled, there is no evidence. I'm really excited about becoming a dad - my wife and I have waited 8 years. I found a place that will print me up a toddler outfit that will say "My dad's HybridZ will kick your dads car" or something along those lines.

Tx1021 Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 Congrats. The car looks absolutely amazing, can't wait to see it running. A little off topic, but what intake and filter are you running? I know I've seen it on here somewhere but can't find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbk240z Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 First, congrats on the "daddy" news! It is a great/super/awesome feeling! I have two young sons, well 3 and 7 years old. As for your Z, it looks fabulous. Good luck on getting the Z done over christmas break. Also, I wish you and "mommy" good luck with the baby.

The toddler outfit will be cool. Bound to start some conversations too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
