    (oem AM unit pushed back & I've pulled & prodded & no it's not a faceplate that pops out :/

    also Hello Toyota!

    (part #8 pops out in this out of focus diagram)

    this thread wins :P

    I'll be attempting the @two_days_late method too!

    I was looking for the "hidden stereo" thread & this will do for now

    method #2 is to pop something in the glove box or try to access the back of the dash by removing the Glovebox isself

    otherwise from what I have read (datsun1200.com) I have to drop the steering wheel to get the dash out

    or am I missing something incredibly simple?

  5. have you though about Meth?

     

     

    ....injection

     

    or even water?  I know that's a backwards way of thinking to cool things when it shouldn't be acting this way in the first place

    Seems weird (and frustrating) one bug is giving you so much mischief (following in the hope its something simple & not a sizeable setback)

    no chance any custom water pipes or mods are hiding under the intake and sitting wrong?

    chin up champ!

    how have other boosted Yota's got on with anything like this?

    (edit 50 mins later)

    and I'm talking about this stage

    what was involved with the pressure test : ie just air? or Fluid

    I'm more ling than anyone else commenting here so really just here keen to learn / follow

  6. Not much Happening since I tucker it in the shed, we've been focusing on the Datto & Nat's 2020

    but here's a big Happy Birthday to the Avenger Brand! Which turns 50 today

     

    Love 'em or hate 'em there's a cult following around the world : and more on the road here than in the UK!
