Whilst dismantling the dash of my 280ZX...I came accross an ifra red reciever under the center dash vents.... it looks to be factory original as the little tinted window has a propper moulding that it fits snuggly into ... and i can also see it in the diagram in the workshop manual...but no mention as to what it is...... Anyone know what that is supposed to be for ???


cheers, Brian C


Aha...it's actually just a light to illuminate the cassette player... through me, because of that tinted window...usually goes over iR..

Now I guess an iR sensor would work behind this tinted window anyway right ?? Because I'm mounting an MP3 / CD player in the glovebox, and want to oprerate it by remote control via the iR...
