Any pics of your grill installed? I'm also interested.
GOOD WORK!!!

Anyone else have experience with installing signal mirrors on their 07+ sedans? I'm looking to purchase a set from eBay but would rather not tear up the front/rear panels to get wire the signal LEDs. Is there any way to connect them to the BCM or other similarly easily accessible spot?
I downloaded the service manual and am looking through the BCS (body control systems) portion, but am not much of an electrician

Hey man it is Arizona where it gets up to 118 degrees. The dash can fade and start to warp.
Best part of the carpet is that it really cuts down on reflections of the dash into the window. I remove the "Dash Mat" when I take the car in for a car wash and the reflection of the naked dash is the first thing I notice.
The dashmat also doesn't show any dust. The carpet hides its. The steering column show dust but not the dash.
About $35 from Checker Auto.
Number one Tip. Get black!!
Any lighter color will reflect.

I considered the BCS or BCM too. The signal is there.
The hardest part is dealing with the doors. When you have two wires all ran all the way from the mirrors to the kick panel, it was just as easy to run the wires in the thresholds than digging around with the BCM.
I considered going to to the front of the car for the signal but the rear was easier.
Try this simple test.
Remove the two bolts that hold the rear seat in, remove the rear seat and remove both the front and rear threasholds. They just snap out.
You will see a simple canal that runs from the kick panels right into the trunk.
The BCM/BCS module scared me away.
You can contact me directly if you want.

I'm sure within a few years, by the next generation of the G/M, Nissan will start equipping signal mirrors by default like the Altima
