The vast majority of EV conversion shops would NOT bother with this kind of cosmetic restoration. They would either leave it or tell the customer to take it to another shop. You're a good man.
I've used the Foxwell scanner for my BMW for years. Great value for the money. The repairs you made to the door panels and dashboard were amazing. For a guy who didn't do this stuff for a living, you do amazing work. Pat yourself on the back.
The 981 and 991 models had this issue with the door cards separating due to the glue used from the factory. I had to have my 981 Cayman's driver side replaced by Porsche due to this separation which is where I learned about the issue. Porsche wanted $2800 to replace the door card but I got them to pro rate it due to it being a design issue (I was out of warranty hence why it still cost to fix). Supposedly they changed vendors for the glue used.
Yeah I did the same for my 09 Camry haha. I found a company that makes overlays customized for different models. I wish I could remember the company. I’ve had it for years and no complaints!
Had you linked your plastic welder in another video, Jeremy? Just curious what brand and where I might get it when I need to. Perfect video for this kind of procedure.
Thanks for this gem of a tutorial!! Do you have any videos on changing the color of interior panels? either by painting or wrapping with fabric? Would love to see an in depth tutorial by someone who thinks through the steps like you! Cheers!
Thanks for the comment! I have done some interior vinyl wrapping. Here is the play list ua-cam.com/video/vB3MXVwUVdw/v-deo.html&pp=gAQBiAQB Also I was wanting to try some vinyl paint amzn.to/3Xg1kmA but haven't got around to it yet
@@ElectricSuperCar Thanks for your response, Jeremy! I juuuuust had discovered that playlist after asking haha! I'm particularly curious about that vinyl paint workflow... I have a dashboard im curious about painting but don't know if it'll hold up overtime very well... Hope you discover something great!
In most automotive plastic parts you can find an ingraving which informs you of the exact plastic material. For example PP GF30 = Polypropylene with 30% Glass Fibre
You did the 3d scans and some viewers did some modeling for you, but you never talked about how you will make the body panels. I'm really curious how accurate/precision body panels can be made in a home garage. What's the plan?
One thing to cover when advertising obd2 scanners. What other systems can it scan? Airbags, abs, other modern tech. A $10 Bluetooth scanner connected to the torque app will do what you showed. But can't do the more advanced codes.
That z dash amazed me. I truly thought it would have some type of odd edge from the board and clamps not contouring to that shape. Does the factory glue fail from heat, or is it not applied as well on the edges, do you think? My other favorite thing is finding air bags deployed and clean titles.
FYI those plastic weld clips are meant to be bent and metal fatigued off, not clipped off. Just bend them forward and back a few times and they break off down at the base.
@@eslmatt811 Thanks. With my current car project, I took a lot of pictures. Wished I had taken more, maybe with note cards and arrows. (and bagging nut and bolt sections more carefully) Numbered clothes pins for the connectors was something I wish I had done. The sharpie and tape numbers I used rubbed off.

I seen in your video that you had the "dots" used for 3D scanning. What brand is that?

I really hope Your customers appreciate the effort You put into these projects. You treat those cars like if they were Yours 👏
I hope so too!
You're attention to detail is always first rate Jeremy!
I appreciate that!
Hey Jeremy, you have figured it out, getting that delamination fixed up, like new again.
Well done, thanks! 👍💪✌
Thanks 👍

God I love this channel so much
Thanks friend!
This needs way way more subscribers! The work is top notch!
My wife and i were just looking up fixes for her Camry this morning, we decided on an overlay just because well its a 07 Camry 🤣🤣
Yeah I did the same for my 09 Camry haha. I found a company that makes overlays customized for different models. I wish I could remember the company. I’ve had it for years and no complaints!
I would love to see more of the Nissan 300ZX build 🙏 😎
Excellent how to video. 👍

Hey just FYI, the OBD2 port wasn't standardized and mandated until 1996 model years! But GM did put their connector in a similar area prior to that!
Awesome content as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Y R so patient dude. Good luck🎉
Thanks Friend!
Good job
Interior panels can do all sorts of bad things when they dry out. Nice fix.
Thanks friend!

This is what I have.

Awesome ✌🏻✌🏻✌🏻
Something different and useful to learn 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Keep it up 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

OBD2 was standard/required on all US cars starting in 1996. EuropeOBD in 2001 for gas, and 2003 for diesel.
👍
Thumb up .... don't forget people, hit it.

It has pretty much everything

Would be interesting to know for how long you had to let the adhesive sit.
It said for full cure 24 hours
12:34 minutes 😂.. nice
Nice. Gow is the Porsche doing?
Slow. I wish I could work on it more but it doesn't pay the bills

I thought he did that a couple videos ago. Main advice was to record everything to know how it goes back together.
