How do you feel about dash on this?

Talked to the dealer today. 120, in labor to install the block heater, 1.5 hours time because they have to drop the exhaust manifold now and i guess didn't have to on the 2.5s.

Not too bad and will be much faster than me doing it so i am probably going to go that route

thats ok. really flashy. the worst part about that laser light show is that it would raise the price of the car for the upgraded interior.

looking at it again, im glad i dont have it. thats too much... lol

Too wild. Kind of like the MyFord Touch is too wild. One of the things I like about my Impreza's dash and center stack is its simplicity.

I appreciate the attempt at innovation here, however I have yet to see a touch screen control panel that is a easy to operate as a few buttons and dials on the center stack.

I want instruments that are easy to use and relay information in a concise manner. I don't see much of a point in complicating the interfaces.

To promote distracted driving and rear-ending people, of course!

$80/hour is CHEAP for dealer labor!! If they're good, I would go to them for all repairs after warranty...unless of course you can do it yourself.

Anybody know where to pick up the rear fog? It is obviously cut to be put in if you can find it, but I'm not sure who/where is selling it if they even are yet

Rally Sport Direct has it. Kind of pricey though...$200.99. You might be able to find it cheaper elsewhere though

That is pricey...40-50 bucks would be worth it. 200+ is insane!

I agree. Depending on how I proceed with the exhaust I might do this mod but I'll be making my own.

Emailed Nameless Performance to see if they had exhaust system in the works for our car but unfortunately no one has brought one in for them to look at. They asked me if I would be able to leave it with them to do some measurements for prototyping. Unfortunately I am in New York but if someone in the Washington state area had a car for them to take a look at maybe that would help out the rest of us in the long run. I for one would like a little rumble in my exhaust and really don't care to cut my rear bumper to have a nice tip showing. A turn down tip behind the rear diffuser would be adequate enough for me.

Does that include the wiring and switch on the dash?

It includes the wiring but I did not look closely enough to see how it hooks up.

Funny thing, the white faced dials used to be the sport look on cars. I remember the Maxima used to have them on the sport edition, and ppl loved them. They are fine to me. I do like the dark background of the limited's center display better than the indiglo one.
