Re: LED Projector Headlights
@Zen_master I used Morimoto RetroRubber OEM grade sealant to add an extra layer of rubber over the seam between the lens and housing. I didn't heat it up or anything, I just pulled and stretched the rubber along the seam and pushed it into the gap as a "just in case" layer. Have done this ...

Re: New wheels and tires
I used this for $16 to reprogram my sensors and skipped the air pressure game:

Re: New R51 "C" Head Lights found 2005-2008
Went back and looked and didn't see any more, but I think it was the usual thing. Same unit, different sellers. That being said, now that I look closer, these aren't LED projectors, they are projectors for halogen bulbs. So probably a little better than stock but not like the LED projectors I picked...

Re: New R51 "C" Head Lights found 2005-2008
I see plenty of other listings for the same thing at around $300. If I hadn't have already gone with HIDprojectors.com I'd be jumping on this.

Re: Power Steering Pump going out?
The V-6 pump goes for $343 from Nissan? 
My pump is fine but the leaky hoses are getting bad.

Re: SIEMED Fog Lights - I like them
Some cursory "research" on the web suggests that LEDs in an OEM housing designed for halogen bulbs is not a good idea. Does anyone have experience just swapping out halogen bulbs and replacing with LED - and what was the result? If you Google "frontier forum katana bulbs" you wi...

Re: SIEMED Fog Lights - I like them
Thanks, ShipFixer. Now I just need to figure out a good way to clean up the housing that is starting to cloud. Wet sanding and polish with an orbital will get it clear, but require regular touch ups since the factory UV coating is no longer effective and/or gone. Headlight protective film or someth...

I have tried several and these are the most focused of all so far. They are still diffused...

Re: SIEMED Fog Lights - I like them
I used Phillips and Sylvania "extra" halogens as well as most of the LED bulbs out there. I prefer the Katana LEDs over any of the halogen options but they still throw light everywhere. I got a set of projectors in stock housings made by hidprojectors.com and it blows any bulb upgrade out ...

Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing
My Pathfinder still has a lifetime contract, but I've been looking for something waaaay different for my garage. Had to be the hard-to-find blue to match! https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/e185/txnavy/IMG_2005.jpg?width=960&height=720&fit=bounds https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/e1...

Re: Lost keys!? Need replacements?
The Amazon and Ace Hardware stuff works just fine, and have for many years now. The only functional difference I see is the plastic casing of the Ace Hardware key is a two pieces of plastic snapped together, while the OEM key is fuzed with a seam. I have no idea if the Ace Hardware key is watertight...

Re: Lost keys!? Need replacements?
I get keys from Ace Hardware pretty cheaply. Forget how much. Fobs from Amazon for $12/pair:

Re: Z1 upgraded ignition coils
You won't see anything till they just start misfiring unfortunately. Aside from Rock Auto, the Autozone cost for their store brands ranges from$73-$90, and I went through two of them when I had misfires at around 200K. Getting six Z1's if they're really rated for higher output and longer lifespan se...

Re: LED Projector Headlights
Yes - the same 8mm hex nut for vertical alignment that's present on the OEM assembly. Left/right is fixed but it's straight as-is. They were very close to perfect right out of the box though, I only had to raise the left one a tiny bit.
