My stock Bose HU doesn't have the dual-climate button (it has that awful looking "dead button") but if I was to replace it with the DC button would I have Dual Climate? Does anyone know if there's that green button behind it? Has anyone tried this?

 

no you would not.

 

hi, i have an 04 g35 coupe and i just bought an in dash dvd for it, but then i was surprised when they told me that i needed a new dash kit(sorry im new..). so i got the metra dash kit 99-7604, but the buttons seem kinda cheap. can i replace those buttons with the ones from my stock dash?? and any other advice with this kit or installing the dvd??? thanksss n please help!!!

 

any update for this question?
cause if we had to swap out DCC button even for JDM
why not just swap out all the buttons using Metra, this should be easier, cheaper and dont have bother with soldering for the people that arent good at it

 

very good questions. can the factory buttons snap into place in the metra controller? if so, that would be a real money saver. (too bad i already bought my JDM kit...)

 

Nice info, thx

 

I just bought the JDM kit from Riverside Infiniti.

I was told that I had to buy Antenna harness and radio harness. Can I not use my stock harness for this? What all extra stuff do I need to make sure that the conversion doesn't lose features like Radio etc.

Btw, will I still have steering wheel controls if I go for an OEM stereo?

THX

 

yes, you need the stereo harness and antenna adapter to use an aftermarket head unit. you will also need the module to maintain use of your steering wheel controls. (there are 2 DIYs you can find if you search. i used them to do mine.) if you were going to use an OEM head unit, why the hell did you just waste $300 buying the JDM controller?

 

Oh did I type OEM... . Oh c'mon! you know it was a typo!!! clearly i was typing 'after market stereo' !!! .

 

Good write up. I just got my metra kit in, and am going to attempt doing a swap of stock buttons to the metra kit. I don't know how well it will come about since the way the buttons communicate to the circut board seems different, but I will try. Anyone else attempt this? (Should I be creating a new thread for this?)

 

the buttons just snap in place on the nissan factory parts. when i ordered my JDM ac controller it came with black buttons, so i just switched them out with the willow buttons on the stock controller. took me about 15 minutes to do.

 

Hey djSLiM,

Do you have any pictures? I have the willow interior in my car as well.

 

what exactly are you wanting pics of?

 

I read this from grubbsperformance site.
