Terranovation

That looks like a factory optional extra - great job! I was thinking about doing something similar but I decided I like my ashtray for storing spare fuses, you never know when you might need em. I have a volt meter wired into the back of the cig socket as it's an accessory switched deal so it comes on when you turn the key. I just use a usb cig socket plugged in there. You can also get volt meters that plug in there with a usb port on it. Ebay has stacks of them.

Sorry I wasn't having a go at you, I was just saying you did a good job if you can manage it out on the road in the elements. The TD27 is a different beast, the PS belt is easy to remove by undoing the tension bolts for the pulley conveniently placed just next to the battery.

I'm not sure about the side rails being the same width and also the length. The only way to be sure would be to measure the distance between the bolt holes. I hear 300Zx seats might fit, if you can find em.

I laugh whenever someone says "Hah I can replace my headlight bulbs and drive belts" Yeah ok, that's in a dry garage with flood lamps and lights. Now try doing it on the side of the freeway with cars flying past, rain and wind. Then you can say you can do it no problem.

My goodness, what a mess. The small white connector that has two pins is definitely the cig socket connector, the pink black flat connector in the top part of the pic is probably for the back of the fan speed illumination and one of those bigger white connectors looks to be for the back of the air con illumination. Somehow they managed to get those connections mixed up with the radio by the looks of things. Idiots!

You could always get flexy tubing so you can feed it to your air box, but if your air box is on the other side of the engine bay it's gonna look weird with piping going from one side to the other lol.

Also fixes the dreaded rattle every time you go over a speed hump.

Myself, being a Terrano owner can tell you that the front fenders are exactly the same as the early Pathfinders (88-95) but I have a TD27 with the air filter housing on the passenger side (in US that is your drivers side position) just be aware of that little chestnut.

Maybe stick a bit of rubber on the end of the door contact switch. I stuck a round piece of rubber about 5 mm thick onto mine with super glue and it's been working great.

That solves the lighting under the hood. I'm interested in the auto switch for the hood, I don't have one of those but I could always install a switch somewhere near the hood release so it's right where you'd be standing upon opening the release lever.

Sounds like a great idea, any pics for install?

Never thought about putting one under the hood, sounds like a good idea for when checking stuff in the dark. I'm lucky with my interior light I can turn it off or on and also set to 'door' so it goes on when you open the door. I also have a rear cargo light too which is now hell bright back there. Changing my headlight bulbs for 5000k brights, they are Osram ones that have a bluish look. I'm sick of seeing an orange glow especially when I am trying to navigate at night.

They came with a bunch of different connectors for different applications. One connector has a spring festoon connector so you can easily connect it to the interior lamp panel and it has a stick on piece for the back of the led panel so it stays in there. The light that it produces is fantastic and I definitely recommend getting them and the price was only $2 for the pair, although it took a few weeks for them to arrive.

What color is it? I have some brown material here that is fairly close to the Nissan stuff. I used it for my fridge centre lid.

Just showing my relay install for my led bar, the wiring going through the grommet in the firewall and the plastic rail thing I found that was perfect for holding mobile phone, plus added benefit of keeping it cool in summer because it's location in front of the air vents

You say it's smelling like burning from the passenger side so my guess is you have been running the a\c and that burnt leaves you can smell coming from the evap box. What happens is the resistor that is screwed onto that plastic box is clogged up with leaves, twigs etc that fall down into the front cowl vents. There is a way to clean it out, have a look in the how-to section. It's called Fire Prevention or something.

Gave the interior a most needed vacuum and washed the front floor mats. Also installed grease zerks to the front bushings.

Have someone press the switch while you unblock the nozzle. I remember getting some really strong masking tape and taping the button down then running to the back and prodded the nozzles with a needle and there was a tiny grain of sand that came out. Both nozzles have been good ever since.

I managed to get a mini fridge/food warmer in between the seats. Centre console required some cutting of plastic. Basically had to cut off the back part where the old lid was and fab up some metal brackets to hold the fridge in place and glue, lots of glue lol.

Finally got around to wiring up my Cree led bar. I learnt a lot how relays work lol. Hardest part was trying to squeeze the wiring through the grommet in the firewall. I had to also unscrew the centre console that surrounds the T handle to thread the wiring under the carpet and up through a spare switch hole next to the hand brake. The switch hole was square and of course the switch that came with the wiring kit was round! So I had to fab a piece of mdf that was square, make a hole in it to fit the switch and covered it with a piece of stick on carbon fibre. Bit on adjustment on the led bar to get the right lighting angle and 3 hours later I was set to hit the tracks. Also found a plastic gutter thing that I found fits my phone perfectly so I mounted it to the top of my centre console where the centre air vents are with some double sided tape. Looks like a factory option. Will post pics.

That's why we are here, to help others in need! Saves $$$ going to auto electricians too.

Maybe the wires aren't touching together and that's why they flicker. Like they are just touching then coming off again.

What if someone rear ends you though? I'd rather them dent the bumper than the actual frame. Think about it. Bumper is easier to find either at wreckers or online than trying to straighten the frame.
