I too just received the email as posted by Phil with no mention of the bracket, and I am one of the earliest VIN's around. I am figuring all cars below a certain VIN and in cold climates will get the update. I too am waiting to hear back on the VR update. I am still one of the very few on the...

Reprogram the VCM? So you are no longer on your original revision software or had you previously done the upgrade during the service program that was mailed out?

I am running a 28 module per bulb unit, 1/2 watt surface mount per module and they are bright (400 lumen per side). I had a coupon so they were not that bad on price from V-LED's (still more than ebay bulbs)...

I removed all the rear and side badges over 4 months ago, posted about it in the ELECTRIC badge thread... I prefer the look over any badges: If I were to run any badges I would consider the LEAF and ELECTRIC like you have done. The Nissan "hamburger" and Zero Emission (improper grammer)...

I will not be able to make it Saturday as I will be helping with a Habitat for Humanity house build. I may try and make it by Sunday just to look around.

No, I'm running them with the TE16's (16x7), running 20mm front and rear. Volk wheels have reliefs and the bolt-on kit fits great.

I am running the H&R 20mm spacer set for a 350z on my LEAF with my Volks and it is working great. I have had them on for 8000 miles and I checked the torque of the adapter nuts when I rotated tires recently and they were all holding torque.

My company is in the process of getting public charging to go with solar paneled covered parking, similar to the Prudential set-up. If government funds are utilized for any portion of that installation then they must be available to the public 24/7, if not in use by the employees that work...

I changed my wheels in March, here is a thread I started on my lightweight wheels: http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=37&t=3184 The stock wheels are 21 lbs, and that was on a calibrated scale.

Or you can just remove the wiper motor assembly completely and put a nice cast aluminum plug in the hole... makes for a clean look: I never use a rear wiper and it always holds dust where the wiper blade meets the glass. Plus I like the cleaner look of the wiper (and emblems) removed.

Nader, I did some trial runs with a set of 18x7.5's I have (Ray's/Volk wheels, 38mm offset, 16 lbs each) and they fit fine but with 225x40x18 Dunlop Star Specs the range was impacted significantly; too much for my liking (10-12% at least). I ran them for a couple days and went back to my 16x7"...

No mention of the offset though (I would want to check that) and they will need to be recoated as those are scratches. And yes, Volk keeps the pricing high on the stickers ($100 a set if you can find them) and center caps ($150-$180 a set) to keep people from taking knock-off wheels and making...

Thanks, it is actually an old plate from an old S-10 Electric truck... kind of cool to have it back on an EV.

Those 2 Blinks (SRP lot) just went live this week and there is another one in the parking lot of the Botanical Gardens that should be live soon.

The alt-fuel plate is all that is required for carpool lane access. That decal is not. To my understanding it was originally created for other plates to be used on an EV and gain carpool lane access (vetran, foreign legion, purple heart, etc.). I was not issued one at the DMV when I...
