Ahh I see what your talking about. The common way to get AUX sound into the M35 stock isn't to remove that cord, but to leave it in place a run an aux cord off the TV tuner in the rear LH boot trim. It sends a signal tho the screen and the screen in turn pushes the Audio out the head unit via that wire I believe.

Doing it this way you can also display video (NTSC in potato resolutions only though).

Or just upgrade the head unit, it's usually more cost effective.

I would also run a new 12v wire to the clarion receivers in the boot roof to allow for a steady voltage feed and improved reception.

For my 1000th dumb noob question, what are the receivers you speak off? Receivers for TV or radio?

They are in the top rear passenger side of the rear roof lining. If you remove the rear roof panels you will see them (2). They amplify the signal from the glass

Well just fitted a new Sony Head unit.

Took my time , used the Iso harnesses.

All went well, tested for sound before refitting everything.

Not much room behind the head unit for cables, especially with added iso plugs and leads.

Tucked in all in gently, put it ALL back together, now one speaker doesn't work.

Great.

Could be faullty head unit, faulty nissan iso harness, faulty sony harness or a break in one wire some where.

If you tested it and everything work before you push the HU back in then maybe a wire got crunch/fell out soft of thing? Which ISO did you use?

I"m the Aerpro man here, if you suspect the iso harness screw up, give me the part # and i can check for you.

Sorry to bother you. Can you advise me of the correct Aerpro part number for adapter cable to suit the Bose stereo model please? My plan is to simply feed an MP3 player into the system initially, then remove the CD-ROM drive and install a 'proper' car stereo. Mine is a 2001 M35 Stagea, BTW. I don't feel like spending a fortune ($500.00+?) replacing the whole centre section, just so I can fit a double DIN unit.

Sorry but i'm not 100% clear on what you're after.

You after ISO harness or T-harness?

If you want something like an RCA in so you can feed your MP3 player into the Unit, first of all, your unit needs to have an AUX button, then you can start from there.

I don't have a Bose HU in my stagea so i don't really know what they look like and what the rear plug looks like either.

Since I have not pulled the stereo out yet, I don't know what I require. Sorry to be so vague. I am comfortable with electronics, so I can make pretty much anything work with anything, but I figured the Aerpro cable might make my life easier. See, I plan to do the whole job in a day (or two), so I wanted to have any adapters to hand before I start. I really don't want to strip the dash out, work out what is needed, reassemble, order the parts, then strip it all down again. Make sense? There is no AUX input on my Stagea stereo, though I was told it is a Bose system.  I have enclosed a photo of my Stagea stereo and the DVD ROM can be seen to the left of the photo. My plans are as follows (subject to change and not necessarily in this order):

* Rip out the stereo and the DVD-ROM drive. 

* Install a cheap radio/CD/MP3 player where the DVD-ROM drive is. 

* Locate the line level section of the cassette deck, break the line and terminate in a 3.5mm socket, so an i-phone/MP3 player can be plugged in.

* Integrate the radio/CD/MP3 player into the system.

* Install a new SATNAV/reversing camera somewhere.

 

BTW: I know what an ISO harness is, but not a "T-harness'.

 

Thanks for your advice and assistance. I am pretty new to Stagea ownership (2 weeks).

Brain fart

I see

Sounds like you just need a Nissan Bose to ISO, ISO to your HU brand, any Autobarn or SCA can help, i believe the boys here said nissan patrol iso harness will suit.

Not sure if Bose is any difference, you have built in Sub & Amp, if so then you might also need a low or high level converter.

I'm new to the Stagea myself, yet to pull the HU out to check as i'm going to set up GPS/Reverse cam but i'm lucky enough the car already comes with a Double Din Slot.

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
