There are lots of different switches you can select at a auto store. Getting one at Nissan is crazy.Cooper993 wrote: Is there a switch available that replaces the blanks on the dash that I can use to control a set of driving lights?
Is there a way to program the remote key so that all doors unlock at the same time?. On my Audi, I can program that through the OBD 2 port.
Is there a Nissan part I can buy to have 1 touch down for ALL the windows?
Does anyone know the spring rates of the stock SE vs. the OR SE springs?
Anyone hardwire a radar detector and can recommend a good switched circuit for power?
As others have mentioned, I would see if I could find some kind of aftermarket switch out of the thousands available that might have the same look as the Nissan switches. If all else fails, you could buy a Nissan switch and do a bit of work on it to fit your needs, at least if you are skillfull enough/artistic enough.Cooper993 wrote:Is there a switch available that replaces the blanks on the dash that I can use to control a set of driving lights?

You could probably rig something, but you'd have to rig one of the 4 existing switches to handle all windows. What if you want control of just that one window?Is there a Nissan part I can buy to have 1 touch down for ALL the windows?
It's been posted above, but the springs are identical. Same part numbers. The only difference in the suspension being the OME Rancho shocks on the SE-OR.Does anyone know the spring rates of the stock SE vs. the OR SE springs?
That can easily be done, but my question is where do you live? Even if your state is detector-friendly, many states are not. If you get pulled over for something in one of those states, it might cause some grief. I'd personally keep the detector portable & feeding off the various 12v cabin outlets.Anyone hardwire a radar detector and can recommend a good switched circuit for power?

I realize that's how it's done, but my other cars can open all four with one press. When I want to open the hatch with my hands full and dog in tow, I'd like to just reach down and hit the button through my pocket and unlock the whole vehicle.Just hit the remote unlock button twice.

I meant that all 4 windows have one touch down capability, not just the driver's window.You could probably rig something, but you'd have to rig one of the 4 existing switches to handle all windows. What if you want control of just that one window?

Just because it's hardwired doesn't mean it can't be removed. I have a V1 with remote display so I could have it mounted high and no one can see the lights. Plus I rarely go to states that don't allow them.That can easily be done, but my question is where do you live? Even if your state is detector-friendly, many states are not.

Actually I have a laser jammer that does that on my other car. I'm just worried about radar on the PF.Npath wrote: Have never hard wired a detector. Do they detect laser ahead of you, not at you?
I saw your original post with that picture. I guess if I can't find an OEM version I could do something similar. I was hoping that there was a Titan or other vehicle that used the same form factor switch that someone had come across.nissan4me wrote:I cant answer any of your questions but did look into switches. THe factory switches are like $50 +a little. Everything I could find had printed icons for heated seats and such. I did this as backup plan. Its not perfect, but looks decent and only cost a few bucks. http://i226.photobucket.com/albums/dd23 ... 332486[img][/img]

You could also order a Nissan cargo lamp switch as is used in 05+ Titans and Frontiers and paint over the 'cargo' part for another OEM option;

Welcome to the forum Cooper. If you are looking for OEM heavier front struts/springs and heavier rear springs and shocks have a look at the 08V8 springs/struts/shocks, somewhere I've posted the different part numbers for those on the forum. My dealership parts guy thought it was a great idea to both stay OEM and get some extra spring if I needed it for a front winch or carring additional rear cargo.Cooper993 wrote:Does anyone know the spring rates of the stock SE vs. the OR SE springs.
Yeah, it took me a little while to get used to as well. My only other vehicle that had a remote unlocked everything with 1 push, and was also programmable as to what was unlocked. The Nissan remote won't allow for that unfortunately. But seriously, it takes less than 1/2 a second to hit the button twice-I do it with my arms full all the time.Cooper993 wrote: I realize that's how it's done, but my other cars can open all four with one press.

Gotcha. I've never sat in the rear before, so I don't know about those. I take it they don't have the 1 touch? I know the passenger window does, because my girlfriend still cusses every single time she wants to just crack the window & ends up pushing too far & engaging the 1 touch.I meant that all 4 windows have one touch down capability, not just the driver's window.
I was looking at an Armada dashboard which has a number of switches for various applications, all of which would match the PF, so you might want to check those out at a dealership. Here are a couple of shots of the Infiniti QX56 switches which are worth checking out as well.Cooper993 wrote:Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!
I'm pretty sure you would have to replace the window motor regulator to add this feature in addition to replacing the door switch. Since Nissan doesn't offer the one touch feature for the rear windows on any Pathfinder trim level, I don't think you would be able to purchase a rear window motor regulator from them that can do this.Cooper993 wrote:Is there a Nissan part I can buy to have 1 touch down for ALL the windows?
MARKSPATH wrote:Most everyone has answered your other questions, so I'll address the radar detector. I also have a V1, but without the remote display. I've got mine mounted just under and to the right of the rear-view mirror, and ran the wire above the headliner, down the passenger post, into the dash, and behind the glove box to the DC accessory outlets. The top outlet is switched with they key, so I just tapped-into that outlet's hot lead.
If I replace the radio, which I'm thinking of doing next week, I'll try to get some pictures of the wiring. But I'm getting a bit tired of pulling apart the dash.
