I just completed a successful hydraulic line replacement (lines #23,24) on my 2010Z. (very early production, S/N 381). It was an educational experience and after I completed the repair it was clear to me that most common malfunctions I feel that I could tackle. I used Top Hydraulics in Oregon as the source for info and parts.

Nissan has basically washed their hands of top repairs for 370Z owners so you need to go it alone with out their help. There are some repair shops around the country that have experience with the Z but they are not everywhere. Nissan refuses to sell any piece parts for the top so sources are either used or refurbished/fab'ed parts from companies like Top Hydraulics.

All in all it was a fairly straightforward experience and I used notes from fellow forum members and the Top Hydraulic videos online to complete the job.

In summary don't get discouraged if your top fails.... yes you can get your Z top back in operation and it won't cost you 15K+
