What did you do with your Z today VI (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

TNBXIII

I did a couple of simple mods today.

For those of you who haven't done this yet, I strongly recommend that you do. The mods are simple and easy to do. It took me about 10 minutes as I was taking my time.

I am going to install my audio equipment tomorrow. Hope everything goes well.

I will post pics when I do.

What mod is this?

Well it is not a mod per say, but I changed the frosted dome lights for clear ones.
I was also planning on putting LEDs but then I changed my mind.

BoneZ

Oh... I never noticed. Now I want to go look at mine.

You probably have the frosted ones if you haven't changed them. I paid 26 dollars for the pair. A bit of a rip off, but they used to be 20 some dollars for each a few of years back.

Those are GTR map lights. A required mod. Looks so, much better.

Now you need to change those bulbs to LED's.

I might do that eventually, but first I want to see how bright the interior is at night.
I know LEDs are cheap, but I kind of like my retro old style regular lights.

They have warmer LEDs, which more closely mimic the incandescent lights.

Oh, I wasn't aware of that. That could work actually. Do you know what they are called? Manufacturer?

Spent most of Saturday with the Z. First up, oil change with Nissan Ester, new crush washer and filter. Second, replacing the worn Oem front chin spoiler. Lastly, wash with chemical guys V07 in the foam cannon, two bucket wash with V07, wiped down with Griots Garage speed shine detailer, chemical guys natural tire shine, chemical guys bare bones undercarriage, and finished off with Griots garage spray wax.

Thank you for the link. I will give them a go.

UPDATE:

I bought various bulbs from Diode Dynamics. They are a little pricey compared to others, but in my opinion, they are worth it.

I concur. These are two great mods to do. The GT-R start button just looks SO much better as do the dome light (map light) lenses.


As for what I did with my Z today?... I finally drove it for the very first time in the dark. The headlights look great, throw a nice wide, long pattern and are pure white.

And also for a first, noticed just how much brighter the map lights are now with those GT-R lenses. What a difference!

And speaking of the map light, I noticed a little orange LED up there in the map light as well. What's that for? All I noticed that it does is cast a very soft, very dim orange glow on the center console/HVAC dials. Not really enough to do anything. But it's a nice little touch I suppose.
