I can wait 2 weeks. lol I had to wait almost 2 months to get my Swift lowering springs because the manufacturer was out of stock. They finally came in last Saturday, and I installed them and I love it. I can definitely tell a difference.

Just did this swap a few days ago
Super easy mod took less than 5 min
I used a credit card

Add this to the list of one more mod bandwagon that I've jumped on. Install took less than 2 min (and part of that was me taping up the tip of the screwdriver so as not to scratch the leather).

That red is pretty.

Thank you so much from a newbie. You made this mod an easy deal for someone like me who was not familiar with our new 370z.
Thanks again,
James (Puke)

is it less bright than the factory one?

The entire button lights up on the original button so it is brighter, the new one still shows start and stop but is nit illuminated like the original button. Hope this helps.

I'm trying to install mine today. The stock
Button is hard to remove. I tried with a credit card but no luck. I can get in there but then how do you pull it out? I also tried with one of those plastic tools but I don't want to damage or scratch around it.

Help.

You need to squeeze the silver tabs after you disconnect the connector.

They are about 11:00 and 5:00 o'clock

:iagree:

Pay close attention to the tab location in the photos Post #322 in this thread. That's where you need to apply the pressure.
