I posted a very simple way to remove that dummy fog somewhere. Before you even mess with the nuts you take your dremel cutting wheel and put a small slit in the stud. Now put your ratcheting wrench on the bolt and a flathead in your slit. Hold the flat head tight and start cranking.

It is very difficult (yes, possible) to get access enough to work with a dremel to cut those slots/cut decent slots. Reality is, if you use a heat gun to gently heat those locktite secured fasteners for 15-30 seconds the nuts will come off very easily with a box wrench..

thanks for the writes up!

Nice job

I have not seen many 370z with this lamp, IMOP i think its an easy Mod, right???

is this what you got?

Invisicord Products

Yes thats the one......good stuff and holding on strong

This is a standard 7443. Remove the outer contacts marked with the red arrow by wiggling them back and fourth until they break. Carefully bend the inner contacts marked with a green arrow to the outer position (where the outer contacts were). Inner contacts are 5.4 watts, the outer contacts are 25 watts like the 7440 (turn signal bulbs).... way too bright. It's possible that there are lower wattage LED's that would work. This brightness matches the rear red parking lamp brightness better. The stock 7440 is as bright as the turns or brake lights and i don't think it should be.

Im having trouble connecting the license plate light with the z1 short cable please help as i'm not that experinced with electrical stuff

this part is tricky but doable. You have to insert those tips on the back of the license plate light. If you notice on my pictures how they insert. It is a tight fit but you need to be very patient....

let us know if you need help..

Help
 

So i bought the indvisicord and heres a link to the fog light im going to purchase but there no harness to connect the cords into as you can see from the pic. someone enlighten me pleaseeee.

Nissan 370Z JDM Rear Fog Lamp - 26580-1EL1A

Here is your answer. You hook it up to the back of the connector of the fog light. The back of the fog light connector would be the so called harness.

Like lastblueprint stated it could be done like his DIY. But the Z1 short cable you bought should have came with instructions (per Z1 website) on how to wire it up correctly its a different DIY then lastblueprint created.

True Story :tiphat:

great info!!! but I have one question.... maybe its a stupid question... I can use my stock rear fog or I have to buy another rear fog light to make this happened. Let me know! Thanks!!

Tnx guys. I can do my rear fog lamp tom...

unless you shipped your car from overseas you have to purchase a fog light.

He's got a '13 so that's probably the reflector (new to 13s). So yeah you'd have to order the actual foglight.

Thanks for the info guys :tup: im going to try something... lets see what happened ;)

any link where can i get this wire kit and the rear frog light kit? thanks!!

This is the wire for this DIY.

Thanks 1st! How about the rear frog light kit? Thanks in advance!

Guys. All I need just 36" long right? And is this work with Evo-r rear fog light? Because I want a led one. 😁

just use some 16 gauge speaker wire and black tape. Both connectors have big enough gaps that you can stuff the wire in without spending $17 plus shipping for a 15¢ piece of wire and needle.

it should be fine for the EVO-r light as they both use the same voltage.

Wow! Thanks a lot! I will order the one from evo-r! Thanks.

when trying to connect my wires to my fog lamp like in the pictures i am having trouble, there is a harness but no connectors where the wires can be inserted like you have done :icon14:

serious problem!!
 

while putting the invisicord in the license plate light all my rear lights no longer work with my headlights... WHAT DO I DO?!

What did you do? Tells us, in detail, what you did and maybe we can help you figure it out. Sounds like you lost a wire that is common to all the rear lights.

To me it sounds like he might have shorted out the rear tail light section. Might want to check your fuses.

what am i looking for when looking at my fuses.

The tail light fuse is in the battery section. U might need to take out the battery cover and there's a fuse box. That's happened to me before but I can't find the fuse box bring it to dealer and they charged me 90 for a stupid fuse! Lesson learned. 😔

If your steering wheel light was out and the tail light out too. Then same thing happened to mine before. The dealer lied to me. They said the fuse box is inside the dashboard that's why I bring it to the dealer. But the truth is the fuse box just inside the battery section. 😔

Sweet DIY!! I plan on doing this very soon.

Does anyone know how to connect to the third break light? I'm taking about the one that's on the hatch.
