haven't even got 2000 miles on it yet, but have already installed several of the things on my list, 1st was the OEM foglight kit, second was running the power cable under my center console and up under the dash to mount my GPS, third was installing my Gentex homelink auto dimming/garage door opener rearview mirror, then today added a cargo net to the trunk, I will add some pics.Image

the wires are run down inside the drivers side pillar down to the fuse box.funny part was, the factory precuts a small notch in the headliner above the mirror for the wires, it wasn't even close to being centered.no big deal , I just didn't use it.
It was worth the trouble, with my garage clicker you had to get real close to the house for it to open, even then it would screw up half the time, with the Gentex I can push the button when I see the corner of my house just coming into my block and it opens smooth.The auto dimming is nice too with all the yahoo's in their big trucks shinning headlights in your eyes, I 've really gotten my moneys worth from it as I bought it 4 yrs ago, new on ebay, had it in a G35 sedan, when I turned the lease in I took it back out for my next car, the V.

I see your dash is tan. Is this a mod or was it stock like that? You hardly ever see lighter colored dash's in cars anymore.

yes the dash is from the factory tan, actually 2 tone that top half is a darker toupe color, my flash made the pic lighter.I prefer the beige interior both for looks and here in Florida the dark interiors get much hotter out in the sun.looking at Nissans site I see they don't offer beige interior with the V sedan anymore, glad I just got mine.

thanks! so far I'm loving this little car, my only complaint is the SL sedan should come with a sunroof like the SL hatch.

It did come w/ one if you upgraded to the sport package (at least here in Canada it did).

Here's an 08 Sedan for sale in Ontario w/ the sport package (sunroof): The sunroof is the exact same as my SL hatch w/ sport package.

they don't offer that option in the U.S, don't care for the wing or bumper, but would love to have the sunroof OEM, just not wild about the idea of having the roof of a brand new car cut open.

Not offered in the US ... that's a first. Usually it's the other way around (where we get no options).

I don't think I'd get one aftermarket either. It would cost probably more than having one stock from the factory, but some have had them done aftermarket, and they turned out fine.

norton3, your sedan looks good. I'd love a set of SL alloys.

Which part of FL are you from?
