good luck with the mirrors, that was the hardest part in my paint job. lol. but i only had one. those damn windows are in the way.

BTW

S30= 240Z, 260Z, 280Z

S130= 280ZX

pretty simple.

Z31= 83-89 300ZX

Z32= 90-96 300ZX



and i see you have urethane enamal. MUCH easier to work with than my 2 step style. but mine will be more sparkle sparkle (gives depth)

 

Well we've got an S130 then, haha. So basically, you just monkey with it until it gives? I noticed there is a hole there to work with, LOL! I can't angle my tools in there though, is there any other way?

 

ummm... i got a bunch of extensions and went from the very bottom with a socket, or if you have a small air ratchet. and you need a deep well. i believe its a 12mm. i know what your going through. its a BITCH!!!!!!!!!! might have to remove your window

 

****... Alright, here goes my best effort evar!

 

oh, and yeah, its a bitch. lol. i got teh car with the mirror off so i only had to put it back on. i cant imagine taking it off. = / ick....

 

The mirror nut should be easy to get off if you have an extension on your ratchet. Just roll down the window, remove interior panel & plastic moisture barrier... The outter door handles are another story. Those are easier to do when the door window has been removed.

 

****, I was struggling with the window up. Lol, too bad I already taped the window off, oh well, I guess if it has to come down it has to come down. Thanks, I'll try that.

 

Maybe the window does need to be up... I was thinking there is an access hole up by the mirror... no?

EDIT... yeah, page 282 of the Haynes manual... access hole forward of inner door handle.

 

on the S30 with teh windo down, it blocks the mirror but maybe.... awww fudge.... maybe if it was only a little down....... and i did it the hard way.....
