370z Side Emblem on a 350z
do you mean a word document that has pictures in it? or a word document + pictures?
either ways, you're only allowed to attach a 73kb file size (document), and that won't allow you to have a document with pictures in it (cuz it's gonna exceed the quota).
if you're trying to post a DYI, then i'd suggest you do it like everyone does.

Thanks for your help, yes it is a word document that includes pictures.
I will search on this forum on how to post a DIY

edit your post, copy the image link, press
, paste the link.. once you're done, submit the post.good luck.
Nobody is perfect, some people like it and others don't.
My personal opinion, this mod is sweet.
With this mod, you give your 350z a much younger look.

i own a 350z 2007 grand touring and purchased 2 370z lamp assy-side flasher (emblems)
tools needed
- 1 flat head screw driver (used to remove inner fender clips)
- 1 phillip screw driver (used to remove inner fender clips)
- 1 phillip screw driver (90 degree angle)
- 1 tube of silicon
- 1 drill
- 2 hose clamps
- 2 drill bits (1/32 use to start the drilling, 2 1/8 drill bit to make the hole)
- little rust proof paint (paint the unpainted metal from drilling)
- 20 feet of wireing (used to wire emblems to the front signals)
- 4 plastic clips (purchased at autozone, connects emblem wiring to front signal wiring)
- 4 longer screws (2 per emblems holders)
- 1 template (included as attached .pdf)
- 2 nissan 370z lamp assy-side flasher (emblems) purchased at

pre-steps :
- prepare the lamp assy-side flasher (emblems) prior to installation
- i cut off the male connector on each emblem
- solder 2 new wires on each emblems
- remove both little pins on each emblems
steps :
- tools

- remove both fender wheel liner (on both sides) by removing the philip screws and plastic plugs



- view from inside the fender

- use something hard to push out the emblem ( i used my screw driver handle)

- the results after the emblem is pushed out

- use the suplied paper template (marked right for the passenger side)

- place the paper template over the center where the original emblem was
- use the small drill bit to drill in the center of the template

- once the center hole has been drilled
- to make sure the center hole is fully drilled, i redrill the center hole (without the template)

- i then use the 2 1/8 drill bit, position the center drill bit in the center hole previously drilled

- voila, a nice centerd drilled hole

- 2 pins located on the new blinkers (they both need to be removed)
- picture of the first pin

- picture of the second pin

- paint, add rust proof paint on the unpainted metal
- choices :
A) use 2 small screws to screw the plastic bracket onto the blinker
or
b) use a hose clamp to hold the plastic bracket onto the blinker (my choice, easier and faster to install inside the fender)

- add silicone all around the inside of the blinker

- install the blinker inside its hole, position the z as straight as possible (i used a level to align the z perfectly)

- view from inside the fender (you can see the hose clamp holding the plastic holder onto the blinker)

- get the wires from the blinker through the plastic holder located inside the fender

- locate the 3 wires from the front blinker connector

- a picture of both my wires from the blinker

- plastic clips that will be used to connect the wires from the blinkers too the wires on the front lights

- locate the front blinker connector (3 wires, green, black, blue)
- use a plastic clip to connect the black wire from the blinker onto the black wire from the front connector
- use a second plastic clip to connect your second wire from the blinker onto the green wire from the front connector.

- done
- test (use your 4 ways to see the side blinkers lite up)
- successful
- put everything back
its a great mod, have fun
