I see 300s nearly every day, mainly the later ones though, nearly always newer than mine.

foggyjames, your heater inlet box is the same as mine.

The exact part that's shot on mine is the little resistor unit that is next to the fan motor.

resistors might have changed with the dash, but i think you've got a new-style anyway, so your onto a winner

Redline 340 parts

From that guy on ebay that is breaking a Redline, there are a couple of parts that I'd like to look at. 1. Are the wing mirrors electric or manual (I need manual) on a redline or was it an option (some may some maynot). Also are they the same as on my mk2 1985 model. 2. Also the resistors that contr...

It is located in the air ducting next to the fan. You split the ducting by remo...
