Louvers... for s30 or s130?

Can anyone tell if these louvers are intended for an s30 or an s130?



Thanks, rxKaffee

Looks like S130 louvers... But there is a difference between the 2seater & 2+2 louvers. Have you tried putting it over your rear window to see how it fits?

How can you tell the difference in the 2+2 and the 2 seater?

The 2+2 hatch window is shorter than the 2seater window.

Oh... I meant more specifically to the picture. Its kind of hard for me to tell how long it is, since there's very little in the image to reference to.

If I could get a measurement of it, what lengths would indicate which it goes on?

Thanks, rxKaffee

They do. Thats a bummer. Guess I'll keep looking for one to fit my 2 seater

Thanks everyone for helping me determine that this is the WRONG product for my car!! Could have been a costly mistake, lol.

Thanks again!

I guess the 2 seater ones would be about 40" high?

So do you need 2 seater louvers? I have a set, I will never put back on my Z. Let me know, and we can figure out a price. Also these are for an S130, they came off of my '81.

s30 '70-'78 240, 260, 280z. s130 '79-'83 280zx. There is the difference for you.

but where did the s130 number come frome? is it just some kind of nomenclature, or what dose it represent if anything other than 79-83 280zx.

mainly the car's chassis identification.

70'78 Zs - S30
79-83 280ZX - S130
84-89 300ZX - Z31
90-96 300ZX - Z32
350Z - Z33

So I got my new-to-me Aluminum louvers in! They're currently a fading black. Was thinking of sanding them down and just polishing the aluminum to a not-too-shiny surface. Think this would look ok, or blind the people behind me in the sun?
