yeah the one on the right. which you would use to skip entire tracks on a normal CD
I don't use it much because I have the steering wheel audio controls but it's starting to annoy me.
I guess the previous owner just used it too much is a realistic answer.

I guess the fact that the tune sticks out more might be making my sunk button feel worse than it should since they're counterparts in a way.

The brightness is more a function of the ballast than the bulb.

anyone ever mess with a laser listening device? having a little issue with static and amplitude. i figure capacitor for the static, but i have a amplifier built in already, think i should go with a stronger one? and also i can only pick up lower pitch tones any suggestions for high pitch?

The pitch could be due to the size of the object you're reflecting off of.

Window pane?

I have a question. So I'm really contemplating BC BR coils for my G35x. My only concerns are ride height during the winter and How long these last. I had some K-sport Coilovers on my Maxima and after a couple of months the ride was unbearable. It seemed that a lot of my suspension components also broke shortly after going to coils. Would I see the same reliability issues with these coilovers and as far as comfort goes, what would you compare the ride to?

everything is pending on how low you go.

on a FWD. slamming the car almost always means.. you will tear up the CV boots. force more wear and tear on the ball joints and wear your tires out more. This is of course if you dont do any type of correction. Its not a bad coilover set its just design. Imagine if your 6 feet tall and you walk into a basement that is design for 5'8 people. Yea you can fix but your back/neck will start hurting because your not suppose to be like that.

Same idea when you lower your car 3 inches. The g35x has a couple of tweaks to do like front arms to replace, rear toe/camber kits. That can make it work like stock but the increase wear is always going to be there. So people love the slammed looked and some people just want a 1inch drop. Either way the BC coils can do that for you. I love mines. I've been in cars with TEIN, JIC and Ksport setups. All felt decent to me after they PROPERLY adjust the dampening settings.

i love mines, just the rear at max height is very high at all..
