Thanks.

I bought it previous to the price drop which really sucks, but who can predict the future? :shakes head:
What comes in the box is simply the Fog Light Housing with the light harness to connect directly to the factory fog light plug at the rear bumper. Nothing else.

Thanks. I would love to see some close up pictures including harness.

Dang, I paid $90 shipped to my house from Ebay.. oh well =(

Edit: Get lots of compliments on it.. saying it just looks natural on the car..

AJChubbs 06-22-2009 10:57 AM

90 bucks? Shesh.

I got the cheapo shipping, total was like $79. What'd they do for you, teleport it?

AJChubbs 06-23-2009 12:09 PM

For what it's worth they are out of stock for like a month. Ugh.

I got my out of stock email today. Said it should arrive to The Z Store in about a week and then 3 days shipping. Ah well....I've waited this long.....I can wait another week or two. ;)

If the fog lamp is like the one i bought... then this is what included in the fog lamp box...

ONLY the fog lamp itself and the pigtail harness and bulb... no instructions... i think the one from the zstore will come like this too cuz its a genuine nissan part...

I know there are a few of us on here who placed orders for the European fog light a few weeks back and I inquired about it a few days ago....here's the response I rec'd:

Thank you for your e-mail. Unfortunately we did not receive the 370Z rear fog lamp as expected. Nissan has currently placed the 370Z rear fog lamp on national backorder. We are hoping to receive our next shipment of 370Z rear fog lamps in the next few weeks but no estimated arrival date is available from Nissan. We apologize for the inconvenience and delay.

Regards,

Looks like we have a few more weeks to go. Just wanted to give an update. I know I'm looking forward to getting mine. ;)

I've just had a look at one of the first 370Z's in the UK - and I can confirm that the foglight is very good looking. (Bit like an F1 car's rear lamp)

Diversion 07-11-2009 02:21 PM

I get a ton of compliments on the OEM JDM/Euro fog light, I highly recommend everybody get one from an aesthetics standpoint alone, 2nd for functionality (if you choose). Everybody stopped bugging me "What's that black box for?" to "Hey nice, light-thingie down there". I prefer to hear the latter.

caneman88 07-11-2009 06:51 PM

i got a similar response :eek:

Mr. Rogers,

Thank you for your e-mail. Unfortunately we do not have any margin available in the 370Z products you order to provide a discount. We apologize for the inconvenience. Everything but the European rear fog lamp will be processed and sent out today through Fed Ex ground. It will still be a couple weeks before we receive the European rear fog lamp in our inventory. As soon as the fog lamp is received it will be processed and sent out through Fed Ex ground at no additional shipping cost. We will not charge you for the fog lamp until it is ready to ship. Thank you for your patience.

Regards,

Jon Mccarty

Has anyone heard anything since receiving that out of stock email about a month ago? I haven't......and don't wanna seem like a PITA asking all the time.

Cjanik 08-05-2009 07:24 PM

i purchased mine a month and 2 weeks ago. the 14th or so will mark two months.

they have broken federal laws by the way they are doing business but I dont care enough to press it as I trust that I will get the item eventually, they have been good to me in the past with other pruchases.

By law a)if they dont think they will be able to ship the item within 30 days, they cannot list it for sale unless specifically stating it will be over 30 days, and b) if they thought they'd get it within 30 days but didnt, they MUST OFFER A REFUND BY THE 30TH DAY or, the option to keep waiting for the item with a new promised (if any) date.

this is per the federal trade commission.

only reason i bring this up is because some of you might want your money back to try to order from someone who has it in stock. I have no doubt they will try to do things right if they can.

:iagree: They have always been good to me, too. I've purchased the front & rear mats and the sunscreen and car cover and never had an issue.

Funny you mention about looking into purchasing someplace else....I saw the item is available @ eBay. However, they are still going for the "old" Z Store price of $114 so I'll be patient and wait. ;)

I got fed up of waiting. I ordered mine from Erickson nissan out of Edmonton, Canada.

They are getting it in from Toronto and the part will be at their dealership on Friday and then they will be shipping it out to me Friday night. Cost me $40.00 than if I went with Zstore but they don't have a clue when the order will be filled. I wanted one 2 months ago, so I gave up and called Canada for the part, easy enough.
