As for being able to see the invisicord from the front of the car, my tint strip at the top of the windshield completely obscures the invisicord from outside the car at least in my case.

I agree with the above conclusion that the smaller connectors work much better. I was sent both so that I could do a side by side. My conclusion was that the "wimpy" connectors were much better.
I stand corrected on the 2 rows vs 1 row of holes!

After hearing the same from the others that received the smaller connectors, I have decided to go that route for the G35 InvisiCord.

I received two orders from the G35 crowd last night and utilized the smaller connectors on them. Thanks go out to everyone that had constructive criticism of my product so that I could improve upon the existing design so that it will fit this vehicle type!

Just got and installed my invisicord! Quick question -- there are two rows of holes in the mirror harness, one row has wires plugged into it, the other row is completely empty. I couldn't get the invisicord wires to stay in the empty second row, so I stuck them in the first row (ie, invisicord wire and pre-existing wire going into the same hole). Is this right?

Yep, that's right. You want the radar detector to run off of those "pre-existing" wires.

I replied to your email and PM. As noted on the order page, the owners of G35 and 350Z coupes require special connectors, and to trigger the routing of the proper cords to the proper orders, we require the additional Infiniti/Nissan $.25 add-on to the order.

In any case, if you place an order for a G35 cord, I will get it out ASAP so that you have it soon, and if you return the prior cord, I will refund once I receive it. This does happen from time to time, any suggestions on how to make this extra item on the orders more visible would be appreciated.

You know what's sad, is I remember when HTML first came out, there was a kickas$ tag called >blink< What ever happened to that? Everyone complained so much that it went away? That would rock in this situation.

In the words of Samuel L. Jackson:
>blink< IF YOU HAVE A MOTHER FUC*ING G35 OR MOTHER FUC*ING 350Z, CLICK ON THE MOTHER FUC*ING BUTTON THAT SAYS YOU HAVE ONE OF THESE MOTHER FUC*ING CARS!!! Something about SNAKES! >/blink< (with > < reversed because this board's PHP code is mother fuc*ing strict)

It has nothing to do with the $.25, it is that there was nothing on the order that denoted it was for a G35. We used to ask for a note on the payment, but it was cleaner to just add a separate line item to each order, which also helps in the order automation. We have products for almost 25 different models of mirrors, and the cord for the G35 is different than any of the others.

I will send out another replacement for you at my expense, please send the other back after you get the new one.
