I noticed a small orange LED by the passenger map light that seems to stay on all the time. I've searched high & low to find out more about this light, but it, not mention anywhere in the manual. Has anyone looked into this?

Another item that has baffled me is the "passenger seat fold down lever" mentioned in the Nissan website, and my original window sticker, but nowhere in the manual, and I haven't seen anything in the car.

Is it the passenger side front airbag off light? Does the light go out when you have a passenger in the car?

This light is located on the map light console, on the side with the passenger map light & microphone. I'll check the bluetooth theory tomorrow. It is barely noticeable from the driver side, and shines down on the shifter console. My wife noticed it first from the passenger side. It's a pretty cool feature, just wanted to learn more about it.

Yes, you are correct. That is an LED ambient light. I have 2 in my G.

Because it's an Altima and these are Z's? :poke:

You can always wire one up. It's an LED, not a custom tune or engine swap.
