power sunshade

Has anyone looked into retro fitting their max's with a power sunshade that is installed in the I30? What would I need and where is the switch located in the I30 for the sunshade?

Don't know what you'd need, but the switch for mine is located on the middle console in front of the armrest.

On my 2k3 SE, that is the location of the switches for the heated seats. Does your Infiniti have that option? If so, where is the swtich for them?

I'm just offering info, my 5% tint is all the shade I need!

Yeah the switches for the heated seats are up there too...really close to the armrest..the sunshade switch is more like 5 inches in front, kinda centered on the console.

I dont think it would be that hard of a mod considering the I35 has it. I should bold right up to the exsisting holes on the max's rear deck. I did get a price of $869.77 for the factory sunshade and that puts it out my league (especially for a sunshade). Will have to wait to see if I could find one on coparts or something like that.

Does anyone know if the I35 rear deck will fit 2k3? If so.... buy the deck(I35 deck hides the sunshade)and install an aftermarket sunshade, By the way that’s way to expensive. www.dashcover.com has them for $49.99 and he was willing to do a group deal.

That is the switch for it in the picture. Yes, the cupholder looks abnormally long in the picture.

Also - the shift **** should fit a 2k3 Max no problem.

I also don't see why the rear deck wouldn't fit as well. They're virtually identical, at least that's what I've found with swapping out the subwoofer back there.
