Having trouble with tail light wiring.

I bought my car and all the wiring is just bunched together. I'm unable to get the reverse or tail lights to turn on.

i have been flipping through my manual for some time and can't solve shit. i got every other light in the car to work except those.

 

thanks ahead of time.

Can you not just have that brazed? That would be a cheap option for fixing the radiator.

I had already thought about that but the middle has been smelted so many times for past leaks. I'll take pics right now.

Anyone ever buy these seats or know of quality and comfort?

I have an original 510 seat.

I'm not sure I want to keep searching for a passenger seat that I'll just have to reupholster. 

 

These are ebay seats so not expecting much. I want some vinyl or leather type seats but not sure of any I could switch in?

 

I found some 240z seats but just as well, ripped and what not.

The datsun 3 points bolt up at the top of the b pillar kind of behind your head, if there isnt a hole in the head liner then there probably isn't a hole for the bolt in the pillar. I have some cheap 4point harnesses in mine. Theyre long enough to bolt to the floor so something like that could work in your situation

thanks. i appreciate the help.

im pretty sure i'll figure out how to use a 3 which is all i really want.

i tihnk a 4 would be somewhat cool though.

do you have pics? if not i understand.

i was also wondering how a +0 offset rims would look?

i can get some pics, i just bolted then down to the rear seat bolts.  

 

0 offset rims look good, im running 15x7 in the rear an still have alittle room to go out but not much.  with stock struts you will havw alittle less room up front but a 7'' wide 0 offset should fit.

those are my future rims probably.

i can't drive it for awhile because i have minimal uses for driving at the moment.
