Zzzz... Posted March 12, 2007 Share Posted March 12, 2007 a little discovery I made this weekend. My passenger window switch seems pushed down into the trim, so I got myself a new one on ebay for a tenner. When i got it I set to replace it, easy job... but then I noticed my UK spec passenger switch was not auto up/down. (The Switch face is black) , and the one I got on ebay had Auto and a window logo... removed original switch to find the switch pack came of it fixings and could be refitted no problem... , then installed the Auto switch and low and behold it WORKS ( automatically that is...) So UK spec cars ... get yourself Japan spec switches and you can have auto up on all windows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zzzz... Posted March 12, 2007 Author Share Posted March 12, 2007 I've checked some pics on the web and seems the jap spec has auto up on all switches . I currently still have manual UP/DOWN on driver side for the passenger window, so what i need is a japan spec driver side switch console. And I'll be 100% automatic... it will be nice to find out if any of the jap spec driver switch packs has an option for auto mirror folding on ignition off, maybe a top spec model with all the options ticked...I am not interested in tinkering with aftermarket solutions.

Yep my JDM has auto drop on both windows ,also autofold when car is locked with fob, also autodip on side mirrors when reverse is selected , both can be disable with a switch on dash if required Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zzzz... Posted March 12, 2007 Author Share Posted March 12, 2007 The same as autodimming rear view mirrors in US spec Zeds... crazy decisions... but i guess someone is saving a few quid /car somewhere in the Nissan empire... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mathys Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Well, depends on which side this switch is. The left one out of three on mine doesn't have any function. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
