Behind the license plate or drill your bumper.

Note that this was for the 2003 Z dash.

Assuming Scafremon will not object, I have placed a copy of the Acrobat file here for downloading:

The use of a magnetized screwdriver will help.

Thanks,
I really appreciate your effort, however, the instructions do not show stock nav unit. I cant simply remove a rubber mat to expose the screws, I have all the controls for the nav and the screen in there. Would appreciate some further input.

I believe that you just pry the control panel up and disconnect the wires to expose the screws. Pretty sure it's just held down by clips.

Some of my pics here (click - free reg required) might help as well, for running wires to the doors, power to the stock location, and doing a custom fiberglass box. Figured I'd add it here in case it helps anyone out.

I just bought a 2003 350Z performance. I am looking to add some bass to my system and would rather not take up any of the already limited trunk space. Does anybody have any ideas? I already own a 10 Kenwood Subwoofer.

Err, here we go, found the link =)

Dealerships will also not install OEM navi into a non navi equiped car, it is just way too time consuming and difficult. If you really want the OEM setup, I think your best option is to trade in your car for one that has it =(

Hope this gives you a little insight!
