whatdamn: all the best in your search, remember that you always have a choice...so if there is something ur not satisfied with then dont hesitate...take your time and find the right one tht ur happy wth.
also, if you happen to come across a good condtn cbu unit...GRAB IT!!!
cbu models are hard to come by, but if u do come across one..check that all documentation matches up and tht u get the original AP. I bought mine but the AP is missing...
cheers! :D
ah... ;) good topic to share here....
i was told to be very careful with cbu cars. The very first thing to check is the chassis reg. number engrave on firewall and wheel house.
Local models: chassis number is on driver side wheel house HAxxx-xxxxx To make sure it is original, visit any of your friend driving new nissan car(any model). Nissan use the same size alphabet and number. Get a white paper and 2B pencil. Duplicate a copy like how we did it in kindergarten skool duplicating texture of tree or cement floor. Bring it along when you are going to visit any show room. Firstly check alphabet and numbering must be in straight line. Second touch the numbering surface whether even or wavey, could be self engrave by car dealer (stolen car / sabung DUA). Third take out the duplicate number u did above, check the size spacing and whatsoever. Anything suspicious, do 100% check like Singapore Custom.
CBU models: some do not have chassis number on wheel house. Only the plate which bolted on firewall.
Any correction or input will be great, cos im planning to change car in future, this is one of the important thing to do homework as we are in MALAYSIA! apa apa pun BOLEH :D
