ZT and ZT-T estate

Illustration — use it to know where to look.

Location

RHD (UK): under the dash on the driver's side, above the accelerator pedal, roughly where your right knee sits. Crouch in the footwell and look up under the lower dash edge; the 16-pin socket is exposed. One owner of an early ZT describes it lower down on the left of the footwell, where the flat panel above the pedals meets the curved knee panel, so if it is not above the throttle, feel along the underside of the dash across the footwell. Same socket used by T4 on all ZT and ZT-T models. The ZT was only sold in right-hand drive in the UK, so no LHD position is given here.
