Cheers Darren. Are the rings the same as XB rings? Looking at the other thread posted by xe351, all the conversions have been done on XA's.

Default Coupe landau LTD bits needed!

Hi guys, Just back from Europe so had a play with the Landfill and found a couple of bits that I need to get. Has anyone got one or two of the rear side quarter parking light lenses? I have several off other coupes but the lenses are wrong. I don't need the backing part, nor the chrome curved surrounds but happy to take if needed.
Also happy to swap the ones I have if someone needs them! From what I can see, the Landau ones are more curved and have a different looking red/yellow reflector.
1x P5 LTD bonnet and bootlid, I don't need the chrome trims/badges necessarily and preferrably in Sydney due to transport!
1x XA type tank, i.e. with no breather pipes, if someone has one lying around!

Any help would be much appreciated!

Cheers, Jamie

The Landau ones are the same as ZG Fairlane. ZH Fairlane fit but are not the same. ZH Fairlane is, incidently, the same as XC Coupe.

I know you have both there to compare but i thought the Fairlane ones ZG were flatter. I bought a set ages ago from Ebay and they werent the same as the Landau's fatter, curved ones.

Default XC ignition module

Hi all, would anyone know where I can get either a new ignition module for a v8 XC/ZH or the old one repaired.
I would like to try and keep all of the standard ignition system.

Hi Steve, they are made of fibreglass - in comparison to the origional's they are slightly stronger by use of a higher strength resin.

Hey Les, if you go to the website xasuperbird.com there is a decent example of the glove box decal on the home page - might pay to check with Ben (website designer - you can reach him through admin contact) where he got image from and if he modified it at all - I dont think he has but would pay to check just in case.

Might be easier to get one of the glove box decals yourself, they are about $25 from memory, the decal kits floating around these days use an enlarged version of the glove box decal for the rear quarter decal which isn't quite right.

There was an origional set on ebay half a year or so ago, not sure if it sold as I thought at the time he was asking too much for it - $400 from memory

Cheers, Cheyne

P.S. If anyone does happen to have a set of NOS Superbird decals I too would be interested in purchase... may have a better chance with rocking horse poo though.....

Cheers Pat. I managed to get my hands on a mint console and dash from my cousin at Fairford Spares out of an old V8 Fairmont sedan he recently bought for wrecking. They are sitting snugly in my coupe!
