That's good news. Tell Hal that all of over at Donald and Kate's said hello and that we are thinking about him.

Also, I have one last set of parts sitting on my "Parts that I bought but have not gotten around to installing yet" shelf. They are the Nissan OEM rear fog light and the Motorsports wiring harness with switch. I am hesitaing for two reasons.

First, it looks like there is a significant amount of interior work that needs to occur. Second, have I mentioned that my steering lock mechanism is dead and I am waiting for the part, which will be another two weeks. I mentioned that, right? I think I did.

If you look behind the rear fog light you should see the wiring harness clipped on to the left of the fog light bracket if you car comes with it.

I went to Pepboys to buy a new carvac and they didn't have one that I could use within the car so I instead went home and thoroughly cleaned out the old filter and body of my carvac and saved myself $50!

I also took the time to throughly clean my Drying Chamois and Sheepskin Car mitt just to make sure that I am not leaving dirt residue on my car during the next wash :tup:

Looks like a little extra cash to save for the next mod and time saved for a clean scratch free car wash.:tup::tup:

Glad to hear Hal's surgery was a success! :tup: please wish him well. :D I'm sure it was tough on you and your family too. Hope you all get some rest too. :)

If I have the harness, do you know the best way to wire the swith in?

If you use the pre-wired harness, the best option is to tap into the BCM wiring like in this thread.

http://www.the370z.com/diy-section-d...ck-wiring.html

You'll just have to run the wires from the BCM to the center console and connect them to whatever switch you use. Oh, and you'll have to add a diode like Spearfish talks about in the DIY. If you are using a switch without a LED you'll have to run two wires, and with a LED will need four wires.

No problem. :tiphat: I guess there is one better option and that is to buy the Canadian steering wheel stalks. That way you can make it an OEM setup but from what I've read those canadian stalks will run you about 4 bills.
