seeing edk83's for sale notice, reminded me.....here goes.

 

The rear illuminated panel on my z packed in working, wasn't the inverter so naturally assumed it was the EL panel. Having shopped around etc found it impossible to source from Nissan and manufacturers inform me I need to buy large sheets in large quantities so was about to give up, but I've now found a UK supplier who will supply me what I wanted, ordered it and today I fitted it and it looks brilliant all working again. :dance:

I got 2 pieces

1 blue/green......is green though

1 red.......slightly pink when illuminated......but still looks good in the panel,

 

I tried both pieces to see what I prefered (green). Anyway I have a red piece left and can access more ( various colours ) and inverters. Is there anyone with a u/s panel that want to repair it or wants to convert their none illuminated panel that may be interested.......not looking to turn any profit just costs, each EL stripe works out at £16 each and inverters about £40.

 

Oh I can get them upto A4 size by the way at about £48

How difficult/easy is it to make install this in a car that didn't originally come with it?

Hi mate can you give me the part number for the inverter please ive been looking for the right one for ages .Will this inverter power the standard rear nissan panel thanks taff.

the inverters aren't genuine nissan, I get them from the company that does the EL panels, if you want I'll get a proper price incl del and post it on here, It would probably take me a few days to sort it out though. TBH the original post was only to see if there was any interest.....as I said it's all at cost.

Mines an import aswell so yes the EL's I can get will work, the inverter is behind the internal centre panel. small unit about the size of a match box wrapped in foam.there should be 2 wires running from this box to the side of the L/H (looking in car)reversing light, should be a green with thin red stripe and a green wire and plugs into the inverter loom.

http://www.twinturbo.net/ttnettech/illrp/illrp.html...........follow the instructions in the link, but the only part you would need to do is openning the rear panel and sealing back up.

is there anyone who can do this for a fee??

 

all inclusive?? I'm sure someone must have done this a few times for mates, well if the price is right i'll pay to have mine done...
