Door Lock Actuator

[cookie--monster]

Yo!

Has anyone replaced their Drivers side Door lock themselves?

If so, has anyone replaced it with an Infiniti G35 part rather than the Japanese V35 part?

I beleive they are not the same/compatible but not 100% sure as yet...

I have the USA part and the JAP part will be here in 1 week.Riverside swear they have sold some over here in AUS with no problems.

I'm keen to know as well.

don't

USDM Infiniti driver side is on the opposite side. if you order US parts there will be no provision to hook up the lock actuator to your driver side lock barrel properly, because they'll give you the USA's passenger side.

READ the DIY I wrote up here (it's for passenger side but for driver side you just do the mirror of that side)

thanks a ton rs73.

I had alot of trouble replacing the handle and door lock after finding the parts to be different.Its getting the handle back in with the key barrel which is super hard.I spent almost 4 hours in total.

Your guide is great compared to the crappy 1 page diagram in the service manual!
