F1hydro Posted Monday at 16:20 Share Posted Monday at 16:20 Anyone out there fitted one of these screens to a 2009 270z? I've seen the write for the smaller screen but that doesn't help me and nifty city tech support are about as much use as a chocolate fireguard!

Keith D Posted Monday at 18:30 Share Posted Monday at 18:30 (edited) I fitted the one from AuCar a few months ago, they are all the same screen I think. This one. What problem have you got? Edited Monday at 18:33 by Keith D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1hydro Posted Monday at 18:35 Author Share Posted Monday at 18:35 Hi Keith, Issue I have is the AC controls don't work properly. Now I know there is an alleged fix that involves cutting the supplied main harness and connecting white and green wires but the problem I'm having is that doesn't match any loom that I've been supplied.

Keith D Posted Monday at 18:47 Share Posted Monday at 18:47 (edited) I didn't have to cut any harness. There is a white plastic box attached to the bottom of the head unit which is the AC control. Have you reused this? You want to. Edited Monday at 18:47 by Keith D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1hydro Posted Monday at 18:55 Author Share Posted Monday at 18:55 Yep, original AC control box is still plugged into the OEM harness. It's the only unit retained from the stock equipment. The wire cutting and joining is only applicable to certain 09 models apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith D Posted Monday at 19:06 Share Posted Monday at 19:06 Mine is a 2015 so didn't have a problem. I'll have a look at the wiring diagrams and see if I spot the differences on an 09. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith D Posted Monday at 20:03 Share Posted Monday at 20:03 I've asked CoPilot and its suggested Nifty city should have an early model AC adaptor Copilot The Nifty City Tesla-style screen for the 2009–2021 Nissan 370Z does include all necessary wiring harnesses and mounting brackets for installation. However, for 2009–2011 models, a specific HVAC adapter is required to ensure the air conditioning system functions correctly. Unfortunately, the product page does not list a specific part number for the HVAC adapter. Instead, it mentions that the system is designed to be plug-and-play but may require minimal modifications for early models like yours. 🔧 What You Can Do: Contact SoCal Z or Nifty City directly via their product support page to request the HVAC adapter for 2009–2011 370Z models. Ask specifically for the AC control interface or adapter harness for early models. If you purchased the unit from them, they may provide the adapter at no extra cost or guide you to the correct part. Would you like help drafting a message to their support team or finding a reseller that includes the adapter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1hydro Posted yesterday at 08:34 Author Share Posted yesterday at 08:34 I have now resolved my issue. The Nifty City instructions list mandatory and optional connections that need to be made via their link harnesses and it appears that this isn't quite right, or at least it wasn't for my 09 Z. Basically I had to access the Bluetooth unit located at the front of the boot on drivers side, disconnect the righthand connector and fit a specific supplied harness to the car loom. There was a further connection I had to do at the screen end. The "optional" connections made everything work as normal on my car. If anyone is fitting or thinking of fitting one to an early car and gets stuck I can provide some images. Robin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
