Thanks for the link, somehow I managed to completely miss these! I can confirm that my tweeters have the little shrinkwrapped bit in the wiring. I didn't have to wire the car side of things from scratch though, the plugs were already there. Is it possible the other end isn't connected or something?

Hey everyone, I managed to get my hands on some factory a-pillar tweeters and trims. Installed them - and got no sound from them? The plugs were there, I plugged them in, I tested the speakers on the bench, they work fine. So now I'm wondering, is it possible the 2002 models need a crossover of...

My 2002 also has the K12-style stalks, and I've been looking into upgrading the wiper stalk. It looks like the X-Trail one (P/N 252608H905) could also fit, and it comes with continuous and variable rear wiper settings, which is nicer than the Almera one. The connector does look a bit different...

Hey everyone, I noticed that the bushings/mounts for my wiper motor were dry-rotted to the point they'd shrunk and the bolts were now loose. Tightened them up but I'd like to replace the bushings. If anyone has a lead on where to get them (or even what their proper name is) I'd appreciate it!

Thank you, I appreciate the answer! I'll see about removing the panel once I've confirmed that the AC does indeed work.

Hey everyone, I finally got myself a K11: A 2002 model with the 1.4l, CVT and aircon. I believe the aircon works, but the bulb isn't lighting up. I've searched both google and the factory service manual, but found no mention of how to replace it. If anyone knows I'd be grateful for the help.

About the brakes - did Nissan go with an identical setup for all engines? And is the rest of the car identical in terms of stability? That's important if I want to increase power here...

Alright, I'll see what I can find. Thanks a lot for your help!

Apologies, what I meant was if a car that already has them is harder to find so that an axle swap makes sense?

Thanks for the info! About the interior: I actually like the cloth one as it's more comfortable to me, and it means I can redo the cloth (probably a good idea with over 100.000km's worth of use). I didn't know there were ones with rear discs! Is that something to look for when buying the car, or...

Hello everyone, I'm considering getting a K11 as project car. However, I'd be doing just about everything you can think of to it, so I want a solid platform. It obviously shouldn't have any (major) rust, and as far as I understand, going with a '99 or later is advisable as those have the...

In case someone wants chrome instead of black ones - I bought mine from "DM Autoteile" (German company) on eBay. They're good quality, everything fits nicely and they look just like the originals as well.

Talked to my mechanic today. Turns out mine does have seat airbags (I didn't notice the little "SRS airbag" tag). That means we can't reupholster them and thus we also can't put aftermarket heaters in there.

Thanks for the link! Luckily I already have that manual. Maybe someone else knows their way around the wiring? I could probably find out myself given enough time, but some help is always appreciated :)

Looks like I'll have to settle for aftermarket then. Kits like the one I linked usually require switched 12v, permanent 12v, ground, and light 12v (on when the lights are on, not sure what the correct word is). Where would I find those to tap into?

Turns out it's pretty much impossible to get the heating elements here in Germany... https://www.ebay.de/itm/GENUINE-NISSAN-MICRA-K12-HEATED-FRONT-SEAT-ELEMENT-87635AX300/141919549292?hash=item210b10776c:g:YioAAOSwmmxW2GK0 This is the only eBay listing I've found at all. There don't appear to be...

That means if I manage to get heater element or a whole seat as well as the buttons, I should have heated seats! Awesome, thanks a lot for your help!

Here's the unplugged connector. It's coming out of a small harness coming from below the carpet. There are other wires from that harness going to the seat, but I didn't get a good look as there's very little space.

Hey everyone, my little K12 is apparently as minimal as it gets - no extras of any kind. I'd like to have heated seats though and apparently there were Micras that had them fitted. Since the wiring harness appears to be mostly standardized (e.g. containing wires for electric mirrors when they...

This article here is in German, but that's what Google translate is for: https://www.blafusel.de/obd/obd_betrug.html If I were you, I'd save the money on that dyno run...
