(not in market for one, just wondering.

I sold my ISF
Z is back to stock form but I haven't sold it yet, been trying to get the plastidip off the decals and wheels... ended up using a pressure washer and still couldn't get it all off

I've sold almost all the aftermarket parts

Fantastic christmas present imho!

i wish dealer would've just given me the splash guards instead of installing them on mine. it was already on there when i got to the dealer. the front driver side they over torqued the screw, the rear passenger side they completely messed up the install. luckily the screw holes are fine.

ISF sold the next day I listed it!!!

I didn't list any of my Z parts for sale, I listed everything out when I was trying to sell my car as-is before I took everything off

I received a lot of PMs from people wanting to buy stuff and was able to sell everything locally or people would drive here to pick it up

When it comes to aesthetics I usually go with what's popular or people talk about the most

When I went to Z meets I heard people say they wanted Amuse so I went with that for the body kit :P

For the wheels people say TE37s look good on almost any car and are timeless that's why I chose em

Blah, I need a replacement FOB battery. Does anyone know if having a dead FOB would affect the electronic door unlock from the inside, once you open the door with the manual key? I went to try to get into the hatch and tried unlocking from the driver's side door panel. Nothing happened.

I believe the hatch is FOB unlock only (unless I missed a keyhole underneath or a release in the cockpit).

Unlocking the doors from the door panel won't do anything.

kenchan · 08-16-2013, 01:25 PM

can you get in from the hood, ms. pint?

sorry, no idea on the fob.

haboob, i think there was one a round button and a long button for the hatch? i dont remember.

I just tested this. First, the round button at the hatch is the locking mechanism and locks the hatch and both doors. The rectangular button (it is longer, too, like Ken mentions) opens the hatch. This button opens the hatch if the car is completely unlocked or if it's locked and you have the fob with you.

In the first test, I unlocked the car with the fob unlock button (pushed twice to unlock everything) and left the fob in my office. The hatch opened without a problem. At this point I don't have my fob, and when I used the door power lock button, it locks both doors and the hatch. Pressing the power unlock button on the door subsequently unlocks both doors and the hatch.

I don't believe the battery status of the fob would affect the function of the hatch other than you being able to open it when the car is locked. If the car is completely unlocked (not just one door), the hatch should open without needing the fob.

Of course, you can always follow Mr. Ken's suggestion and crawl between the seats if you really need back there
