Just wanted to add that I ordered and received my harness...everything has gone perfectly. Ordering was easy, it showed up right on time, and the install took less than 3 minutes start to finish. Very easy and the piece of mind is totally worth it. If you haven't ordered the harness yet, do it.

Found the site when searching for solutions to the Z not starting.

Tried the "tapping" method and got her back home and into the garage!

Just ordered the harness.

Awesome!

Order shipped. Thanks.

Excited to get this installed. Just ordered. Nothing would be more embarrassing than being stuck somewhere because of such a ridiculous reason. GF would never let me live it down.

UPDATE: Received this 3 days after ordering. Insane responsiveness. Can't wait to install tomorrow. Thanks for everything.

UPDATE 2: Installed this morning. Like most have said, the hardest part was getting my seat adjusted back to where I like it after installation. I will note that you should bring wire cutters (or pliers) and a short flathead screwdriver with you the first time. It's not exactly the easiest position to get in and out of and you don't want to have to do it more than once...

I was just about to order a backup steering lock when I saw this post. Thanks to all. I've ordered mine. I have a 09 with 28,000 miles....living on borrowed time.....

I just ordered one.

What revision is you new steering lock?

One can never be too careful :tup:

Order placed (2010 Roadster, 8000 miles, RevC) no failure yet, but not taking any chances.

I ALMOST convinced the local Nissan dealer to install the part for me before it's eventual failure, but they emailed me back today and said no after this reply yesterday:

I personally have seen (1) 370z that was towed here for what turned out to be a "Steering Lock Assembly". It was about a year ago and the car was here for about (1) week due to a parts order. I did call Nissan regarding your concern. I was informed that dating back to February of 2011, he found (16) warranty claims for the part number you provided for the 2010 370z. My parts department tells me that the part # you provided does "supercede" to a different part#. However, one of my lead technicians tells me that not all of the 2010 370z's were produced with the same part#. In other words, your vehicle may already have the updated part. I would ask - how do you know the part# that is currently in your vehicle?

I have no issue with replacing the part for you, as long as my Service Director says 'OK'. I will not have a response for you, probably until tomorrow (Thurs).

My concern is that if we remove the existing part from your vehicle and it is sent to Nissan for a warranty claim and it is found to already have the updated part# the claim may be rejected if it has not actually failed internally.

Today:

Unfortunately I was informed that we are not to replace parts under warranty that have not actually failed. Irregardless of what part number is currently in your vehicle. Unless there is an open recall related to that repair. I would need to refer you to Nissan Consumer Affairs at 800-nissan1 to ask if they would authorize the replacement as a precautionary measure.

You should (A) tell the service manager at your local dealer that "irregardless" isn't a real word, and (B) spend the money for the harness and install it yourself.
It's about the cost of a few fast food meals and a couple of beers. Chalk it up to experience.

If you sell the car in the future, uninstall the harness, the original lock will remain in place (hopefully functional at that time) and you can give the harness to the new owner (with install instructions of course) and let them decide if they want the lock in place or bypassed.

I placed my harness order today
