SunGodRA Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Hi guys - for the first time today I had to use my rear window demist and was expecting my mirrors to clear, but they didnt! - surely if Nissan run to the expense of retractable mirrors they would make the mirrors heated as well? Or could this be a fault on my JDM? Please advise... Quote
jonathan73 Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Yeah! At last, something the UK versions have that the JDMs don't Quote
JAP350Z Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Must have been an option in Japan, as mine has heated mirrors. They take a minute or two to clear. Quote
stuey Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 can heated mirrors be easily installed ....... i do miss em...... Quote
Trev-the-Rev Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 can heated mirrors be easily installed ....... i do miss em...... Yeah change em for UK spec ones, but it'll cost you Quote
jim Posted October 5, 2007 Posted October 5, 2007 Must have been an option in Japan, as mine has heated mirrors. They take a minute or two to clear. Likewise, on both counts. Quote

SunGodRA Posted October 6, 2007 Author Posted October 6, 2007 That sucks.. im getting a bit annoyed with my JDM car's functionality in the uk.. or lack of.. no sat nav, no dvds, no leather, band expander on radio means channels arent the same, no bluetooth handsfree, no tracker, no electric seats or side mirror defrosting.. the list is getting longer each day.. I am more than happy with my JDM - I have GT so got leather, electric seats etc - the rest can easily be overcome. Changing stereo head unit is not expensive - a TomTom for sat nav (although I am building a carputa instead) - and you can buy a tracker from ebay costs as little as £40. Dont forget your JDM probably cost between £5-10k less than a UK model!!! Quote
N15MNO-Daron Posted October 6, 2007 Posted October 6, 2007 okok..i forgot about that, point taken, i did get mine for about £6k less than UK version .. Now i feeel better again Tracker £40 on ebay?? if so im gona get one asap.. Cheers! Regarding Carputer.. im also getting one built for me using LINitx.com..hopefully can get one for about £400 Quote
SunGodRA Posted October 6, 2007 Author Posted October 6, 2007 Tracker - many on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GSM-VEHICLE-TRACK ... dZViewItem iIts basically a converted mobile phone hard wired to battery and hidden. You then use a internet gps tracking site to pinpoint the mobile number Quote
Stew Posted October 7, 2007 Posted October 7, 2007 You pay a premium for UK Zeds. They were built for the UK remember where as yours was built for Japan! You pays your money you makes your choice! You saved 6k! The things listed can be overcome for much less so you are still quids in! Quote
