dbryder Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 So, before I even got my import I bought a UK Bose headunit on Ebay. I've never fitted it, I asked the main dealer in Guildford to once, but they said they couldnt as I didnt know the 'code' The guy who sold it to me doesnt exist anymore it seems, as this was 18 months ago, and I'm kinda thinking about doing it myself and just seeing if it works as mine has a really bad skipping habit when cold atm. Anyone know anything about this mysterious code I dont have? or was it a story I was told because they didnt want to swap it for me?

Stew Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 It's a long drawn out crappy process that wastes your time, the garages and I'm sure Nissans! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcash5 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 off topic - are you based in Guildford? I thought the Bose Units were linked to the ECU? (again maybe wrong though, why break a habit of a lifetime!) but there is a repair service on here. Just check you have the right colour as some of the JDM is a grey colour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbryder Posted August 27, 2008 Author Share Posted August 27, 2008 Yeh I live in Guildford. Would like to swap it out to get UK radio too, but I'm tempted just to replace it with something DVD or HD based tbh. Colour looks the same to me, grey Davidb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrado Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Did you ever get the bose sorted? I've done exactly the same thing, bought a BOSE UK raido before buying the Fairlady - which I think has a non-Bose system. Any help would eb appreciated!
