Has been interesting trying to hook up as stock.Everything is wired up.Not yet working.Local Nissan dealer told me BCM has to be set to tell it has rear fog light.Middle of winter here.I will check this when weather is nice.If this does not work I wire direct to switch.

Do not have to reprogram BCM.Fuses into the 2 empty slots and works like factory.

Hi
The part number for stalk will only show in Canadian Nissan.Will not show in US parts books.My car is 2016 so I hope this works in cars made before and after.LOL not many changes over the years.Once it is hooked to Factory harness and fuses are in it will light.Will not show on dash.To see icon on dash you have to put the bulb in.This kind of time consuming to do so it is your choice.

Do you also have to run the wiring harness to the lamp from the stalk, or is it already installed from the factory?

That is excellent! Like I said, I just got the light in the other day, so all I need is the stalk.

One more thing about dash light.This is tricky to put in.Has to be sodered and is easy to wreck things if not done carefully.

Do you have a direct link to Canadien Nissan?

EDIT: It appears Canada is a different country. I had to contact a Canadian dealer directly to inquire if they have the part and if they would be willing to ship to the US. Will keep you posted.

Just received a quote from a dealer in Ottawa: $493.23 CAD / $373 USD. Part on back order. Going to call a few others.

Update received the stock from Canada. Waiting on replacement torx bolts and steering wheel but before I start.

Need to pick up some 10 A fuses.
