repinning didnt work for me. i cut connections and resoldered wires to bridge connections. looking at the wiring though i dont see how it could work by repinning. i posted like 80 pages back lol or in the g37 steering wheel thread

nope. didnt work for me, if you look at the circuits of the two i cant imagine it working by just repinning. someone else said repinning worked for them. when i repinned, the buttons were all in the wrong places, up turned the radio off, down was mode, yada yada yada and so on. the way it works is two wires and at each button is a resistor, either the signal is connecting the wires through one resistor, two resistors or three. so you just have to match it all up correctly with each button.


black lines are where the original connection was cut

good thing for you is if you repin it, the cruise control works fine. airbag is just plug and play, same harness and connectors

Matchbox in the turn signal, lol.

Very unique frostbite. Not many people like the square projectors... I love them.

This was yesterday, but I went to the track. Previous best runs were 14.5 from last year.

Yesterday, best time was 14.0. Changes from last year are NWP 75mm throttle body, 3.5" Administration Tuning intake, retune, and aluminum lightweight driveshaft.

I think with a much better wheel/tire setup I could hit 13's.
