240Z Project

240Z: Steering wheel switches refurbish pt II, Update from the bodyshop

Made some progress again 🙂 First i cleaned all the switches and buttons by hand so the white texture finally came back to life and is visibla again. worked surprisingly good with an old tooth brush and some dishwashing water 😉P1160850 - Kopie

Well and then assembled everything back together. not factory fresh but as nice as an 44 year old switch can get 🙂P1160858 - Kopie

Then started with the turn signal switch on the other side. seems a bit more tricky…P1160859 - Kopie

The contacts had massive burn marksP1160860 - Kopie

So this is after cleaning 🙂P1160861 - Kopie

Who needs puzzles when you have cars? I never realized how complicated these switches are until i took it apart 🙂P1160863 - Kopie

Then got some updates from the bodyshop. Rear lower side cowls (before):IMG-20160301-WA0001 - Kopie
