So I'm planning on getting the AVIC D3X installed in a 2006 G35. The installer called me to let me know that there is a delay, because the maker of the center console/dash piece that would replace the stock piece is backordered by 3 months. I forget the manufacturer's name, but I know I've seen it on this forum before, M-something?

Apparently the part is manufactured in Japan for Nissan. He said the dealer he talked to in Texas would call him back later today. So assuming things are just skippy, I would imaging there'd be some major delays.

So I'd like some advice from any of you, if you have tips on alternate sources where I may be able to find the same, or similar, piece. Otherwise I'm assuming the only other option would be to make a custom center console.

Thank you.

 

contact grubbs or riverside you want the jdm dd finisher and ac controls

 

Thank you so much your advice. I checked with Grubbs on their website and it says they're back ordered.

But I then called Riverside and they still had a few left, for a reasonable price. You just saved me at least few weeks of waiting.

 

Try ebay for that double din..

 

You're thinking of Metra. Their product is far inferior in appearance compared to the factory Nissan / JDM part. It seems like a lot of shops don't know that Nissan makes a dash kit...

 

Until you said this, I was confused as well.

The dealer did say Metra, but he also said he talked to someone in Nissan America.

I dunno.

But if the Nissan kit > Metra, then it looks like I lucked out and got the "good" dash kit then, since I'm assuming that's what Infiniti Riverside carries.

 

I ordered mine from grubbs for my 05 coupe last week, and im getting it tomorrow via ups. that is, if im here to sign for it.
