    rear lights

    I got Lexus style on ours, but then I like the chrome - and the colour of the car can make a big difference. Have to say the Black and chrome Lexus style ones were nice too, but I only saw hem on E-Bay a few times about 18 months ago.

    alloy wheels

    You should find a set in the box. I bought a set of 15's from a dealer off e-bay like this and each box had a set of nuts with it (proved to be the same as the steel's).

    K12 iPod friendly head unit installed

    I'd check with a local Alpine dealer as I can't find the info on this for your model, but I think you'll need 2 adaptors/leads. One of them that I had to use was the PC99-X70 steering wheel control adaptor. Then I think you'll need the PC99-ALP patch lead. These SHOULD allow you to connect the...

    X02A - Or should we say K13?

    What!!! If it looked like the drawing, it's an updated K11 if anything. The headlights have a K12 flavour to them, but it's def more K11... However, if it's the car in the pictures then it's not like anything Micra. YUK! Isn't this the Suzuki/Nissan venture that's being built in India? It...

    DON'T Buy a NEW Micra!?!

    I just thought I'd post on here what the salesman was saying! I've got nothing against the K12, and can't think of anything in the class I'd want to trade it in for...

    K12 mounting bracket

    Hahaha! Been there and done that! You should find that any new head unit will have holes for mounting screws on the side and these'll line up with the holes that OEM unit was mounted by.

    DON'T Buy a NEW Micra!?!

    Well like I've said before, apart from the boot switch when we first got it, it's been totaly ok (even with me working on it!). Just the local dealer with a bee in his bonnet (although our neighbour is having tracking and exhaust rattle issues with his new K12) Read in Autocar today that the...

    mirror cover chrome?

    Ouch! I've seen them on there for A LOT less! Horses for courses, I think they may look quite nice on the right car in the right colour...

    DON'T Buy a NEW Micra!?!

    Exactly the same as us (it's 5 years old now). Shame even the dealers think otherwise now...

    Window tints (WHATS LEGAL?)

    I've USED other peoples vehicles with dark tinted fronts, I've ridden at night with dark visors, and if you think people who tint their fronts will compensate, we'll YOU may do, but the vast majority don't (including the last 2 idiots who've ended up in the gardens of houses at the end of our...

    Window tints (WHATS LEGAL?)

    ... IT MAKES THINGS WORSE! As you have to be even more careful than you would otherwise. Also, in poor visibility/low light conditions it restricts the visual capacity of the driver in the car with the tints making more likely that they cause an accident especially at junctions.

    DON'T Buy a NEW Micra!?!

    Not sure, but a lot of smaller Nissan dealers have gone, we've lost 1 locally too. It appears to be the multi franchise ones (unless it's Nissan/Renault) that are loosing the Nissan business. They are looking for dealers to take on Infinity (only 15 so far...)

    Window tints (WHATS LEGAL?)

    The point is... How can I tell that! Esp if I can't see you!!! And seeing you is not a be all and end all, it's part of what you've put down on here yourself. Yes, drive DEFENSIVELY, but at the same time you still need to 'make progress' (words from the old traffic police bible 'Road Craft')...

    Window tints (WHATS LEGAL?)

    I HATE people who tint their fronts.grr When approaching someone from the side, I want to be able to see that the driver is/has been looking at me and is not just pulling straight out whilst on the phone. It's saved me plenty of times...

    DON'T Buy a NEW Micra!?!

    I LOVE our K12... But I suppose margins are squeezed and so they look for cheaper suppliers. Trouble is, not many in management seems to have worked out that poor quality will kill a brand, and they very rarely recover. Ford found out with Jag etc and funnily enough Renault know exactly what...

    DON'T Buy a NEW Micra!?!

    Well that's what we were told by our local Nissan Dealer!!!!:wow: Took a friend in to look at getting a new Micra as she is giving her old one to her daughter and were promptly told not to get one as they're too unreliable now! WTF!!! It's not even as if he was trying to sell-up...
