    K12 Single-Din Conversion (pocket & vents included)

    Hey Guys, Thought I'd throw this out there to see if anyone wants the last part left over from my K12. It's a single-din conversion I bought from a scrap yard. It's got some marks on it from where said scrappers man-handled it out of it's original car, and there's a not so neat hole in the...

    Jack's FN Civic Type S

    So as some of you may have seen on the thread for my Micra, I recently jumped ship and bought a new car! I'd been pondering with the idea for some time but never really put too much effort into it. Whilst my sister was test driving some cars prepping up for her first car purchase I was sitting...

    '08 Note Idle Problems

    Hi Guys, My dad has a 2008 Nissan Note with the same CR14DE engine in as my K12. It's been sat for a few weeks whilst he's been recovering from a neck operation. When we went to use it for the first time the other day, it had a hesitation when pulling away from junctions, when I had a look, I...

    Straight Swap Seat Options for the K12

    So, I've seen in the K11 threads people putting seats from a Primera/Almera etc into their Micras, and I was wondering what the options are, if there are any in a K12. The idea came about when I finally decided I was a bit sick of how uncomfortable the seats are, it's like they where designed...

    Rear Centre Cupholder

    So early september my rear cupholder (the one on the hinge behind the handbrake!) got snapped off by a stray foot :( My dad as the culprit said he'd fix it, working in an aircraft servicing department he has access to crazy strong adhesives. First few things we tried snapped when we tried to...

    The K12 Sport+, Car Wash Safe?

    So, my car is looking grim, like, really grim, I haven't washed it since about late-june. I haven't had the time, enthusiasm or well-being to just do it and I was considering taking it to a car wash. However I read online that someone with an 05 plate Tekna had the rear spoiler ripped clean...

    Showroom Condition 205

    Friend linked me to this on detailing world, I think it looks absolutely incredible for a 22 year old car with mostly original parts, and the paint it came with out of the factory! http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=269101 Anyone fancy doing this with a K10 or a K11? We...

    Gearknob Suggestions

    So the gearknob on my K12 has gotten to the point where it's annoyed me enough to consider replacing it. The heat and the friction from my hand has perished the leather (much like it has on the steering wheel but that doesn't bother me as much as there's more hand-space). On my K11 I'd always...

    Stereo Wiring Diagram

    Hey all. So I'm looking for a wiring diagram for a K12, specifically the audio gubbins, I read on the Note OC that if you've lost the info button on the steering wheel due to a custom head unit (like I have!) you could bridge two wires together on the steering wheel control cable and it would...

    Wheel Change Improvisations.

    So my friend rang me at half 10 this evening saying he had a flat tyre. He's in a wheelchair so couldn't change the wheel on his own, and I was the only one that answered my phone. Being nice I drove out to go and change it for him. Here comes my question, after taking the wheel nuts off, we...

    Micra's Getting Hot!

    So recently my micra has been getting considerably toasty! So much so that if you stop say to drop someone off or open some gates, and there's no airflow over the engine, you can see steam/smoke-esque type stuff coming from the engine bay. We thought it was coolant as it looked pretty murky but...

    White K11 SLX Parts, Everything must go.

    So I thought I'd post a new thread as the K11 is completely stripped down and everything broken/the shell has gone now. It was a 1993, L reg, white SLX, I have all the parts apart from (off the top of my head)... Broken or Already Sold Boot Handle Engine & Gearbox Passenger Side Wing...

    Micra Demographics

    So the thought arose to me today, about how it would be interesting to look into a rough demographic of Micra users. I got my first Micra at the age of 17, and my friends mocked me about it being an old persons car, which in truth it was, it was given to me by my grandad before he passed away...

    Single-Din Dashboard Conversion for a K12 Sport+

    Hi guys, this is a bit of an obscure request. I'm looking for the part number or even just proper name of the head unit surround on my K12 sport+, my mums activ has a single din dashboard bit and mine has a double, which has really ticked me off as I have a JVC single din head unit. I...

    Best Place to Get Tyres for a K12 Sport+

    So I got the tracking and balancing done on my wheels yesterday, which was long overdue as I was sure it was going to kill me otherwise, it was pretty badly out after I slammed a badger with the driver's side one. Whilst I was there (STS Tyre Pro's, would really recommend them!) they said my...

    Removing K12 Fog Lamp Without Horrid Ordeal.

    So a couple nights a go my car had a fight with a bloody big badger. It cracked my bumper, removed my arch lining, bent the splitter, made a hole in the washer bottle, and has put out a fog lamp. The badger is now pretty damn dead. I've so far fixed the washer bottle, had a crack at the...

    K12 Sport+ Single Din Conversion

    So, I've had my K12 for a few months now and it's still fitted with the 6 CD changer that comes in all K12 Sport+ models and I'm not a big fan. I first thought about fitting it with a Nissan Connect system like they have on the newer micras, the higher end Notes and a few other Nissans...

    Mystery Smoke/Steam

    Okay so I've been trying to refrain from posting about this on here as I was somewhat determined to fix this on my own, as I feel I always ask but never give on the MSC! But it's now got both me and my dad stumped and I'll do anything to avoid a trip to bloody Glyn Hopkin! When I take my...

    My 2006 1.4 Sport+

    So end of June I had an accident in my white L-reg SLX, which turned it from this.. Into this.. Meaning I needed a new car, and as much as I wanted another K11 my parents really didn't want me having another car that could come that close to annihilating my legs. So after some...
