are you putting an install kit together

So, do you need an Uprev tune with that mode?

You don't know the half of it... Ask the poor guy about the lousy hamburgers I made his family suffer through!

couldn't you just replace the steering wheel with one out of an 08?

I guess that's why I've been acting like a schoolgirl since I got back....

Sadly, the skirt doesn't fit me anymore....

Any chance for a write up on how to do this? I would love to have the lighted controls in my 05!
thanks,
John

If a write up is getting done, it is beyond my ability as this is not something that's easy to do. It's a lot of testing, trying, and rethinking. I witnessed it, and still can't really tell you how tech did this. It's about as far from Plug-n-play as Preschool is to a Doctorate candidate.....

There are several things that make this tricky. first you have to add wires to a plug in the truck. These wires also need ends on them just like the factory plug which means you need an extra plug to get these wires out of . I luckly had one of these in the shop that i could cut up and get the wires out of. secondly you have to know how to use a dvm to find the correct location on the plug under the dash and the sw! 3rd you have to pull the sw and on BBs truck this was easy very easy. But usually pulling SW requires a puller or atleast some knowledge of how to do it or you wind up with a broken nose.

IF this was done in the field, then a tech at Nissan could generate a service bulletin on it as well...right? Someone should put in a safety discrepancy through Nissan North America for not having had this feature in Titans since 2004. With some legal action, it could become a mandatory Recall item that Nissan would also pay to fix?
