Sorry. All I know is that 1206 SMD are for the guage cluster. The window switches are either 3mm or 5mm LEDs, but I don't know since I had a friend of mine do them. You may want to read through these several threads to verify. That way you can see what trouble people ran into, such as recalibrating their needles, etc.

Led Swap Interior #1: Cargo Switch/Gear selector

blue AND white gauges...

Yea. It seems that clubfrontier and thenewx get the most traffic, while hardly any traffic on here. Since all 3 vehicles are closely related, I usually visit the other 2 sites. Whenever I check up on this site, I only see that there are a few threads created since my last login.

They list that it's only compatible with the 03-08 G35 coupe and 04-07 Maxima. I think because those are the only ones that have been verified. I am not good with electronics, but maybe you can have a look at this and see if it works. If so, I would purchase it as well because I want the same as you...to have independent control of the fog lights and to be able to turn them on when just the parking lights are on:

i was looking around and of all write ups ( i mean must have read at least 15 ) this one i found is the most informative as far as a DIY goes it would be great to just buy a piece and have it work but with the uncerainty i rather try a low cost way first. im not sure of your factory setup but mine is identical to the one in this post
