Zimmer Key Chain

Hard to get by, any accessories from the old days.

Unfortunately, my left interior light case was cracked and the logo fell out.

The Zimmer logo medal has the same diameter as a leather key with medal chain I owned. 

So what is easier than matching both ?

(This is a Zimmer mod.)



Well, the other option is to go to Germany and steal the room key at departure :-)

Headlight Rewiring

Afbeelding
A Zimmer Golden Spirit is for most owners a pretty old car, lasting between approx. 50 and 30 years. Only the very rich among us can afford to have a new Zimmer build for them. And old cars suffer from : ... bad wiring ! (This is a Zimmer mod.) Our #620 sufferd great at the headlight section. One day we would have 2 dim lights, the other day we would have only one high beam. Or worse, no Dim but 2 High beam. Also the fog lights would or would not come up, not to speak of the city lights that might run on 1/25th of power on the right side and full on the left... .  So first I started to completely rewire the Dim/High beam for the H4 bulbs.    While diagnosing the problems, I noticed that all H4 wiring was running through the steering column, apparently, as there were no relays in the Mustang Service manual electrical diagrams. So I started designing a safe , fused and relayed circuit.  I used 2 relays,  Rel#1 gets its trigger from the main lights switch, if pulled in the 2nd position.

Battery replacement

  The battery of the Zimmer has been a puzzle over the years. Some have it under the driver side fender, some in the trunk. Ours is in the trunk (This is a Zimmer mod) Of course it does not really matter where the battery is located. But I thought it was a very dangerous situation. When I bought the Zimmer, it came with a new battery, but the technician had one mounted with the poles below the steel trunk support of the original Mustang. If you take a close look, the PLUS pole is located less than a mm from the steel body part. And having only a strap to secure the battery to the bottom of the trunk, it is reasonable to expect an explosion when we hit a bump and the battery jumps just one millimeter.  So first thing I did was to put some self made insulation between PLUS and Body. This gave me some safe feelings while driving, but it was not the final solution.  Also, the ground cable was not even 1/3 of the diameter of the mains. Funny this, what goes out, must come back in yes ? So I

The significant horns on the Zimmer were not operational.  After fixing them, I modified the controls so I could operate them from the Nardi wheel!                                                                                      This is a Zimmer mod. First, the idea is to use paddles to operate the horns.  However, turning the wheel will clash additional cables, so I designed a set of wireless paddles. The paddles, I designed and printed on my 3D printer. I designed them to contain a 'remote' from a cheap Ali-express remote relais set.  The left paddle operates one relay, the richt paddle operates another.  The tension of the remote buttons is enough to push the paddle back after usage. The receiver will be mounted under the hood, close to the power lines to the compressors. So wireless paddles can not interfere with the steering function. https://photos.google.com/photo/AF1QipOFNPSSYOrjnsndNvI1jB7a1igb5ydxWNKnU_Pr Be advised, I re-tube the horns, so one compressor is for
