Swaping out seats question ( juke )

2011 Nismo#91

There is a connection to the passenger side seat belt clip, this is how the car knows if the passenger is belted in. The passenger side seat belt clip should be wired just like it was prior to the install. The bypass needs to be connected to the harness where the original seat's weight sensor was plugged in.

Yep seat belt and bypass on the passenger side are connected. Drivers side only seat belt is connected.

Then all you should need is a reset if everything is working as it should.

Yeah figured as much... hoping to get lucky with the resetting.

Even if there’s nothing besides the seatbelt plugged into the drivers side.... no don’t think so. Have to get something to cancel out the signal to the airbag for the drivers seat.

Why do you think that? There is no difference for the driver seat from before the install to after. Your not canceling out the passenger side signal to the air bag. The only thing your changing is the seat weight sensor because the Juke weight sensor does not work with the Z's system so you get the bypass module to give a signal of "passenger seat occupied" all the time.

You only need to bypass the air bag wiring to the Z if you have aftermarket seats which don't have airbags in the seats. And that's just a simple resistor.

That’s where we’re missing.. these aren’t juke seats. Brides, was thinking I was going to get lucky with the reset, but this confirms I need to add resistors to the yellow plugs for the SRS light to go away. =\

Just wanted to say that this whole thread was incredibly helpful. Finally got these seats installed in my 2008 350Z Nismo. Appreciate the help, guys!

Hey guys, I've been excited to make this post for quite a while. I have made a complete step-by-step tutorial on how to retrofit these seats into my 370Z Nismo. I have attached a link below for the main installation video, along with a playlist involving all of the other videos I made about the Recaros, regarding airbag cover installation and seat cover removal. All of you were very helpful with this installation, and I wouldn't have been able to do it by myself.

Kind of a boring question: How is the lower back support? I hurt my back at work a few month ago - and didn't realize how HORRIBLE the stock seats are when you need that lower support...

Driving my girls 5 series BMW helped a ton during recovery - and seat heaters... damn.. next car = seat heaters!

I'm in the market for updated seats - with comfort as a priority...
