Just a quick how-to on replacing LED bars on side view mirrors. My car is a 7th gen 2014 Maxima. Some 7thgens don’t have the screw holding bar in. Just remove shell cover first to see if yours does. These LED bars are adopted from Altimas, so know if the listing for the parts says Altima.

You can buy the LEDs on eBay for around $75. Below are part numbers:

Passenger: 26442-9N06A

With this simple power control module, you can convert any LED tail lamp to also function as the turn signal, for a much more modern appearance. It will work very well in any vehicle where the turn signal is a traditional filament bulb. To install this module, you only need to work with the brake light wire and turn signal wire on each side of your vehicle. Installation is simple!

You can purchase the module from DiodeDynamics.com for around $30 bucks. You will also need to purchase a set of resistors to avoid hyper flash. You can purchase 6 OHM resistors for around $5-8 bucks per the set. Please also ensure to solder all connections.

This is the first true dual Exhaust for the 7th Gen Maxima. The system is full stainless, tig welded, and remarkably quiet when cruising down the road. It is mean, deep, and loud at low RPMs, and more G like when in the higher RPM range.

True Dual

Got some dyno pulls tonight. Very happy with the gains, but not as much with the CVT and the actual power put down.  The baseline run (red) is just an intake and muffler delete on an otherwise stock car. The modded run (green) has 20×9 wheels, Akebono big brakes, intake, stillen under drive pulley, and the dual exhaust.

Base 179hp, 158tq
Mod 218hp, 217tq
39 whp, 59 tq gained over the base.

I used the rear section of the GTR exhaust. I made my own mid pipe and got rid of the resonator in the rear pipe. Also, had to cut out where the spare tire sits in order to fit the mufflers up inside the bumper. Then finally had to shorten the width of the tips to the muffler.

The  GTR exhaust was cheaper than a Stillen Catback exhaust. You can make anything work on any car. It’s about how much it is worth to you….money and time wise.

Up next is body work to make it look perfect!
