Super, thanks. That explains why I couldn't get my order changed. There was nothing to change.LEAFer said:

If you pull up on the parking brake it sets it. If you pull up a second time it sets it even tighter. Pushing down releases it.gasmiser1 said:

Has anyone that has the car bought an extra L1 charging cord? What was the price?

"Only" $508! I don't have my car yet, but I expect I'm going to want to have an extra, since I plan to use it for most of my charging. I'd like to have one permanently plugged in at home, and another in the car. ... But I may put up with the inconvenience for a while, hoping that the price comes down.

"Package-EVSE" is listed as $508 plus $52 ground shipping.

Surely the AV L2 on a "cash-and-carry" basis is a better deal at ~$800 including the shipping?

The AV is less "movable" and only for 240v use on a 40-amp circuit (30 amps "max"), not for 12-amp, 120v use.

And the AV is also not usable (unless you make an easy mod) on 208V, which it turns out is the supply voltage in many public charge station locations and possibly commercial businesses. The manual indicates that a jumper has to be cut during install, depending on whether the supply is 208 or 240. With some skill you could make that "cut" temporary to lend more flexibility to the unit. But I don't know what happens if you "forget" to set it correctly before plugging it in.
EDIT: *CORRECTION* See an update from Fabio on page 21 (http://www.mynissanleaf.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1022&start=205). The AV works fine on either voltage. The jumper serves another purpose. Sorry for any confusion ( blame the installation manual
)

Ok I tried to get the splash guards and the protection package added at the port but I guess was too late and my dealer just told me that port refused.
Is it easy to install the splash guard and black plastic rear bumper protector by yourself? I am thinking i will just order if from eBay and then get these installed myself.
Are the Splash guards here http://www.nissanaccessories247.com/product.asp?MCId=21&SCId=2&PId=2777&Modelyear=2011
same body color as the Leaf? I assume quantity of 1 is for all 4 wheels or is it just 1?
Thx

I'm going to hold off and get one of these, and make or buy AC plug adapters for L1 and L2:MaryC said:

It'll also be useful as a standard L2 EVSE should the Blink unit go on the "Blink".

I just called SPX about their Level 2 EVSE, and they say "soon", and they still hope for March, but it is still waiting on UL listing. Basically, no new info since late Dec 2010.

They are very easy to install. I've installed OEM splash guards myself on every car to date (except the Lease'd LEAF), and it never took more than 30 minutes or so. THey generally come with instructions, a drill template, or just pop-in fasteners.csriram45 said:
The plastic rear bumper is just a stick-on applique. Clean the surface, measure carefully, make a hinge out of masking tape, and stick it on.
Remember, they're not looking to do a lot of precision work in Port. The only thing I wouldn't attempt myself is the clear-bra. That takes practice.

Have you seen the clear bra? I ordered it, but after I saw it in person, I found it hardly covered the critical areas on front of the Leaf.
I wouldn't have ordered it if I been able to see it in advance. Disappointing.

I've ordered a couple of accessories from Nissan dealers online, and in both cases the packages didn't come with instructions. But the instructions below from an earlier thread of mine will lead you to Nissan's website for the instructions:

I was able to successfully remove the clear-bra from my order. Coverage is too little to be meaningful, and hey, lease.

Nissan have now listed the LEAF accessories on their web site! No descriptions or pricing, but hey it's a start!
