Did You Disable SLU? Wasn't able to

Downtime 1 day

Cost: $540 at Dealership (after applying host of Discounts and Rewards Points!)

I never thought this issue would effect my 2011. I always thought this was a problem with the 2008 - 2010 370's. Boy was I wrong. I was in the fuse box a few weeks ago when I installed my Morimoto headlights with the DRL strips and had to run a new wiring harness with a fuse to them. Had I had an inkling that this was an issue with my car, I would have disabled the SLU by removing it's fuse then. I will be disabling it soonest - first opportunity I have, despite the repair.

MORAL OF THE STORY: if you have an '08 - 011 370Z, PULL THE FUSE BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!
