Your on the list :)

That would be hugely appreciated. The blanks are in rover 400s,45s and the ZS got a feeling they are in some of the older hondas that share. Some models without cruise control have the blanks either side of the steering wheel.

Let me know if you manage to get hold of some more than happy to cover any costs :)

s18had 03-07-12 08:41 PM

There is 3 400s in there and 1 180, he is going to look in the morning for me

Cheers bud, any blanks are appreciated :)

Jay-ZS+ 04-07-12 03:32 PM

Right first 5 have been finished, got another 6 that have components fitted. Just need to put together wiring for them and then fit into blanks.
There are a few people that want them for other blanks so will sort them separately.

Currently 6! :thumbsdown:

Have had some members offer to send some, which I assume are in the post and hoping s18had comes through like a hero with some. Its a pity you can seem to buy them new as that would be alot less hassle.

ian Harris 04-07-12 05:09 PM

happy to send you my blank once I've got mine

Jay-ZS+ 05-07-12 02:57 PM

Not sure if people have lost interest or my pms are not getting through but I have 3 made up tested and packaged.

6 more wired up ready to fit to blanks.

James Raby can you pm me your address please buddy, and Smokey need your email to send you instructions :)

James Raby 05-07-12 09:55 PM

Sorry just replied! Been busy - mum not been well at all ;(

Nobrainer 05-07-12 10:55 PM

Cheers mate. Came today :-)

Has anyone used these snap on connectors?

Thought they might make life a little easier and if they are any good they could come as part of the package as they are just pennies

Ricwin 06-07-12 12:06 AM

If these are going to be the final lot, I'd certainly like one :D

I'm not a fan of the stoch locks, as they are a bit of a bodge. Personally wouldn't use. Sure kev would agree.

SheppeyTrio 07-07-12 08:32 AM

Any thoughts on the ZTT?? not so many places to put these?? How about in the brow above the radio?? not sure how much room you need?

I can get some pics if you need then!?

Jay-ZS+ 07-07-12 08:38 AM

Dont need much space, at all. The only thing would be fixing the kit in place do you have any bits that could be removed so that I could mount the kit. The other option is I could make one on a plate that you could then fix where ever.

If you have any pictures of where you'd like it you could send them to 4Jameshowell@gmail.com that would be helpful :)

How many buttons have you got in the centre console? you know where the cruise and heated seats buttons are?

Could you get a "duff" button and convert that to an indicator? then add it to the other buttons and update to a "1 more than before" hole panel?

If that even makes sense???

SheppeyTrio 07-07-12 10:41 AM

Will take pics soon of console and surrounding areas for suggestions!

SheppeyTrio 07-07-12 09:38 PM

I've possibly found a place for the indicators to go but i'm not sure how much room there is behind it!?? I ringed it in this picture, it looks like a cup holder but isn't (doesn't move at all!) and i've put my car key in the picture just to give you some idea of the size! So what you think?

ZS 07-07-12 09:48 PM

You can get a cup holder for that blank... but if you have no use for another cup holder then you can pull off the blank and see behind easy :)

Jay-ZS+ 07-07-12 09:49 PM

As long as there is 10-15mm behind it then yer easy enough. Prob not the best place to view it when driving but if your happy for them to go there then thats cool. Could even go in the middle bit if you'd prefer.

Yes, but they're really hard to find, and a bit useless as you need that space for your knee... There is heaps of room behind the blank though.

Smokey 14-07-12 08:34 PM

Is there a wiring diagram for this Jay, I lost my first one (ok I threw it out!)

SheppeyTrio 15-07-12 08:06 PM

Right, i've found the perfect place for these! Could you put them in this piece (highlighted in red), dead centre wouldn't look so bad!!? There's plenty of space behind it and i can send it to you if required! Just need an address PM'd to me!! Please tell me you still have 1 spare!?

http://i50.tinypic.com/2di3odv.jpg

POMPSKI 15-07-12 08:48 PM

Jay - would be very interested in getting one of these if you have any spare.

Cheers, Dave

How about the blank next to the mirror switch?

Smokey 15-07-12 09:14 PM

I just sent him 3 blanks so hopefully he'll be able to knock some more up. Very time consuming I imagine!
