Just a few small updates. I got the heated seats completed and man are they nice to have this time of the year. I've also got in my A-pillar gauge pod in last week. I moved the boost gauge over to it but it left that empty spot in the cash, so I picked up a voltmeter to go there and also got an oil pressure gauge, but they're not hooked up yet. The volt gauge should be easy, just mostly time and weather related. I'm just not sure what's requierd with the oil pressure gauge.
For site updates, I put up the instructions for installing a PAC steering wheel control interface. It's for the SWI-PS, but should apply to their other models as well. Also, I've got an e-mail yesterday saying that I will probably exceed my monthly bandwitdh before the end of the month. I was surprised, that'll be 2 months in a row. I guess that's a good thing and wish I could upgrade my hosting; so just a warning, get what you need and save it just in case...

Some Upgrades
Wow, time flies. Well, looks like my website exeded it's max monthly traffic allowance. That's not a bad thing forsure, but we're going to have to deal with that unfortunately since I can't afford to upgrade my hosting at the moment.
Well things have been slow but at least some progress. One of the local guys had a "fluid swap" day at his place, so everything but the coolant was changed, and man did they need to be changed. At the same time, I put in a rear diff breather, removing the factory capped vent with the Nissan 38323-C6010 fitting and used rubber tubing follow the factory lines to up being the tail light and into the body through one of the capped holes. Also after waiting for 2 months, I was finally able to get my heated seats pads in. They're installed in the seats and they're very straight forward to tie into Pathfinder/Maxima heated seat switches. So far they're just running on a cigarette lighter adapter, but when I get a chance, they'll be hard wired to a switched power source that runs with the remote starter. Unfortunately I broke my digital camera a few week ago by keeping it in my back pocket and sitting on it, but the replacement screen I got for it off of eBay for $30 should be in any day now. I also just got my A-pillar gauge pod in today as well. I've only got a boost gauge to go in there, and I need to pick up a volt gauge to put in the spot where the boost gauge was.
