Hi, despite trolling through all the info on xenon globes a cant seem to find any info on how to actually remove /replace them on a m35.

Has anyone done it?

Is it a simple job or is as a friend of mine suggested ,like the v35 which apparently took him 2-3 hours to do.?

I'd appreciate any assistance.

remove the front wheel and take out the inner guard.

thats the easiest way IMO

i have removed the airbox and done it from the top, and the other side only needs some things moved around to get your hand in there. V35 owners seem to be all sooks :P

be a man and get some cuts and scrapes.

i found it easier from the top just to take the air box out. even in the ARX being lifted, I CBF trying to pull the inner guards.

All i hade to move on the other side was the window washer bottle n radiator over flow.

Iaaiaiaiaiaiaian I have to admit, it is a bitch of a job to do on the V35 becuase of the angle the lights are on. My sister is a sook n made me do it on hers. but if it takes you 3 - 4 hours? maybe they fell asleep for about 3 and a half hours while doing it.:huh:

Oh the thing you might be asking about; Theres a grey coloured cover on the back of the headlight, you have to turn it and 'pop' it out, your Xenon is the metal thing there. its not hard to take out from there..

make sure its cold though, xenons heat up alot. i learnt the hard way lol

good to hear you did it graham! its not all that difficult, especially when you have done it a few times.

Iain loves an excuse to "exercise" his right hand (or left hand if he feels adventurous) :action-smiley-069:

And she drives a Skyline... :thumbsup:

lol thats right! a V35 350GT too, not one of the poxy four door ones.

although because she is a real girly type girl she has pink number plates, and doesnt really take much care of the poor car. oh well.

im happy to look after her V and also prepared to service her skyline :P

i also got the cheapy $40 xenons from china, but had to retro fit the chinese ballasts due to removal of my factory ones during compliance :(

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
