there is a small red light at the bottom of the door. i never see it go on and i find find that light in the owner's manual. so can u guys please tell me what is that light and when does it go on?

thank you

 

It's just a red reflector. I've heard of some guys changing it into a light.

 

ooo, ic. its there so that when u park on the street and open the door at night, other drives will see that light and know that something is there. ic, thats cool.
thanks

 

What a waste of a beautiful door panel

 

is that on all the G's?? previous and new? i know my 05 G has it. pretty pointless IMO

 

i think every car has this light and obviously it's for safety reasons.

 

Probably required.

 

yea its just a reflector...........i remember seeing some guy turned it into a light........it didnt look too bad

 

I thought it was a target for passing drivers to aim for. Shows you what I know

 

You mean this one?



Only the original first batch G35C had these back in 2002. Then Nissan decided to save $0.75 per car and took them out.

 

Don't all coupes have that reflector? At least my 05 does and the pic of that 06 does too. Unless you're referring to yours lighting up. If so, could we just replace our reflectors with the older one? There's another post btw very similar to this one... sorry for double replying.

 

i like the pic sukairain.... could be clearer..... i'm thinking you're using your camara phone for this........

 

something like this might be a little more interesting

 

Damn how did you find this old thread. lol

But def. a step up. where do you order those and do you have a close up of how they look when off?

 

it's pretty inexpensive and takes little time to install. It turns on and off automaticly when the doors are opened or closed. You can't see the light strip unless you lay down on the floor. When they are on all you see is a slight red glow on the asphalt (the led's and the light strip are hidden from view). I'll take some pictures and post them soon.
