Please refrain from the negative banter theres enough of that on this site. Im just thinking of doing something different is all thanks in advance

seriously, though, it's a great idea.
Recently, a guy put one in his SC300. I think it's brilliant.

IIRC, people were doing it to 5th gen Maxima's, using parts from the I35's that came equipped with the power rear sunshade

I put INFINITI G20 sunvisors in my 3rd gen. Love em.

I bought a rear seat cover from an .org member. It came with an INFINITI Q45 armrest that is a direct replacement to the 3G one and also opens up with compartments inside. Its cool as hell.

the more INFINITI mods the better. What years/models/etc are you looking at? This would be awesome addition.

Here are a few pictures from ebay from someone selling one out of a 2000 I30. Cant tell if it mounts to the rear deck or underneath the headliner?
