Pioneer DEX-P99RS which gives me ipod/iphone connectivity + I have a 160gig hard drive connected to it for my music library. Very rarely use the CD :) but there are plenty of ipod control head units on the market, just depends on your budget.

The factory Radio & AC controls are integrated on the one PCB so to go aftermarket you will need to mod the fascia and find a separate A/C control module like the one below:

Or buy the double din unit with controls like Howa mentioned:

I'm looking to install JDM dashkit in mine right now. Any one know if the premium Bose came with an amp? I hear the USDM's have the amp located in the trunk next to the spare tire.

Also what type of wire harness do i need?

I'm doing the exact thing right now.

Ordered the JDM dash kit from japanparts. Metra buttons do look a bit tacky in real life so stick with JDM.

But basically you would need to also replace the AC controls. You can find them together with the facia, AC controls, single/double DIN brackets and tray.

Also get a harness for the wiring to save some headache, hope that helps

Hi everyone,

Wanting to know what I should replace the current 'face' for the stereo. I miss having the ability to play my iPod and listen to the radio. What does everyone else have?

Bose systems have an Amp in the boot, non-Bose do not, this applies to the G35 (US) and the V35.

You will need an adaptor to connect your aftermarket head unit to the Bose system.. Chris Rogers should be able to help you out with that.

If you just want radio and iPod, you can get the band expander to make the radio work here, and an iPod I/F for the factory unit. Would be cheaper than the double din facia, harness adaptor and aftermarket head unit.

Alternativly you could get a head unit from a G35, radio will work here and it gives you MP3/WMA CD playback ability. Doesn't help with your iPod though..

Oh sweet i think i need something like this:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2003-2007-Infiniti-G35-Bose-Replace-Radio-Wire-Harness-/140494923285?pt=Car_Audio_Video&hash=item20b6266615&vxp=mtr#ht_1243wt_1163

To retain the use of the amp. Also any recommendations for the HU (not sure what power output i need).

Ok guys so i did a little research to save yourself headache with wiring (plug and play attempt).

With the Bose sound system in order to retain the amp you have to use the NSA-04. If you have a factory navigation system and you wish to retain that then go for the NSA-05 interface.

For none Bose systems use the NSA-03.

NSA-04 link: http://www.beatsonic...iti/nsa-04.html

NSA-05 link: http://www.beatsonic...iti/nsa-05.html

Like Greg mentioned speak to Chris Rogers and he should be able to hook you up.

I got my headunit yesterday (Kenwood KDC-U549BT) and realized that without the interface i will lose the amp along with the 2 speaks in my back seat down.gif

So far this is the only solution i know on how to retain the factory amp and speakers.

Parts so far (don't know if i may need anything else or if i'm ready for the conversion):

JDM Dash kit and A/C controls with tray

Head unit (possibly harness if needed)

Beat Sonic NSA interface

Any suggestions are welcome.

Note* These only apply if you have an amp setup so it's not for everyone

Thanks for this info mate. Any chance these are still available? I'm only after the AC Control PCB like in the picture.

I replaced my stock 2003 Bose stereo with a Pioneer double din screen. I didn't have any adapters and I retained the amp and both back speakers. I can honestly say after owning and doing up car stereos that my car sounds like it has a sub. It is insane! Don't know what i did to retain the amp.

      Auto Electrician Workshop Recommendation for Reverse Camera Not Working CKV36 (SYD or WOL)

      By JoVo · Posted

      Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.

      to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it

      A31 Digital Climate Control

      By S1_C34 · Posted

      For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
