Most everyone has answered your other questions, so I'll address the radar detector. I also have a V1, but without the remote display. I've got mine mounted just under and to the right of the rear-view mirror, and ran the wire above the headliner, down the passenger post, into the dash, and behind t...

Ha ha, this brings back memories. A few days after a trip off-road in the NJ Pine Barrens I blew-out my serpentine belt while accelerating hard onto a highway. It was cold, getting dark and raining, and I was about 35 miles from home. I decided to see how close to home I could get before either the ...

I just did this mod on my 07' Pathfinder SE. Got a nuvi 760 from Best Buy for $349 and the housing from Nissan of Rt 23, Butler, NJ for $110. I had to swap my mount and cable to maintain the traffic receiver, but this only took 30 minutes of work and a $3.00 12V/DC outlet extension and some duct tap...

I have an '07 SE, not Off-Road. I am ordering the skids (or trying to) and am waiting for Bilsten to come out with replacement shocks, but that is all I miss versus the Off-Road. I've never used anything but 87-octane regular in the NY/NJ/PA area, and I've towed a 5,000+ loaded travel trailer at hig...

Re: Tire rotations?

Just wondering how many do their own tire rotations rather than getting the dealership to help out with that straight forward 1/2 hour job. :) I bring my truck to a local garage for most of my service. I only go to a Nissan dealer once a year to get any recalls done to double-check my local garage'...

I use a Midland hand-held unit. The antenna cable routes through the dash, then through the rockers then up and out the top of the rear hatch. I have a 2-ft fiberglass whip on a mount designed for thick commercial truck mirrors attached to my roof basket, and the basket itself is grounded to the tru...

Does the rack only go on for special trips or is it pretty much always up there? And do you ever get any water penetration where the wires break the seal on the gasket? No, I usually take the rack off for daily driving to save a bit on gas. And yes, I have got a few drips where the wires cross the ...

Add OEM skidplates to R51 Pathfinder SE?

Does anyone know the part numbers to the three additional OEM skidplates and bolts that the Pathfinder Off-Road has, but are not included with the Pathfinder SE? I've tried 3 local dealers, but they say these are not available. I saw a thread about ordering these from Courtesy Nissan, but the part n...

Third Jersey Noob (What's up with that?)

Yet another newbie from Jersey. I've had a 2007 Nissan Pathfinder SE for almost exactly a year. It's my daily driver (ouch, the gas prices!) and I go off-roading around NJ and PA about once every few weeks -- nothing extreme, mostly dirt/mud/sand roads, some shallow water crossing, and the occasiona...

I'd be perfectly satisfied if I could hide the wires completely. But that means popping the dash, something I've never done before on any car. Most pieces of the dash just unsnap; if there's any screws, they are usually obvious. I've taken mine apart a few times to route wires for the trailer brake...
