I think hood clearance will be a problem with the "whole stack" aka Charger, Power Distribution, Inverter, Motor/Tranaxle. Might work in the rear? You wouldnt need the ABS or much anything else. Getting all the CAN commands would be the problem. I know of only one guy who can talk to the...

Plinkington is on all 2013 Leafs now. 2011-2012 came with Nissan Nismo glass. I dont think you will notice on the front window, but I can notice a slight shade difference when replacing the side windows.

The ikey fault and the power mirrors not working makes me think you should check the connector from the door to the car body. If the body computer is missing one of the door antenna's you will see that fault.

Just a cute picture I found online.....

Waiting on two parts from Nissan, Was told I would get them by 12/31....We will see.

$2300 in Nissan metal parts later I have 99% of the parts I need now with only 10% damaged in transport. You can see some of the metal sticking out of the crushed box. The part in the box is the whole rear inner section. Will try and correct the replacement part and if I cant beg for another...

I have ordered a new front passenger 2011-12 door shell and will see how the fitment is on the 2013. ETA 1 week from a local dealer. Also of note for 2011-2012 and 2013 fitment. The glass for 2013 is made in the USA by Pilkington. You can notice a slight tint difference in the glass vs the...

robot256, if you make a run of pcb's I'd like to buy one to build up.

Motor has to come out to replace it says the book. Ive looked over the one here and to me it looks like it can come out.... with out the motor being pulled. I can offer you a place to do it over in oakland for a case of beer =) The silver 2013 I have here is also bent. Another option is to heat...

Wrecked value of the 2013's go for $7k-$10k keep an eye on copart.com for your car, I hope you took the charger out! ;)

Anyone know the door weight of the 11-12's? I need to buy two doors and if the fit is the same would go with the 2011-12 in aluminum vs the 2013 steel. I guess I should just grab one and see how it fits and weight.... 2011-12 doors are also $100 bucks cheaper...?

book says front 114 ft-lb and rear 105 ft-lb and to "Always replace after every disassembly" the bolts and nuts.

I will be giving a lucky local dealer near $2k for new body metal. I got the small metal items online but the big items would hurt for shipping. I could cut out parts from the other leaf but new does not $hurt$ to bad. I have also spent about $500 on tools.

Taking out the right side quarter panel. I will also have to do the upper aperture panel.

I started with some cheap "OTC" spot weld cutting bits and after killing them and getting pissed off at those bits I went out and got a dedicated spot weld drill. I went with the DF-15DX Spitznagel Spot Annihilator. I have gone from 2-3mins a spot weld to about 30secs. I also got the tungsten...

Thanks GregH, Got mine today. Great build and great price. Will have to read this thread more about what else can be done with the LeafDD. The car I plan to use this in wont have the Nissan dashes installed so the LeafDD is going be the main display.

I am over in Oakland, CA and have been to or called just about every dealer in the Bay. Most are dead set on list prices. I have two wrecked 2013 Leafs I am playing with. Planing to rebuild one. I have been ordering my parts from http://www.nissanpartsdiscounts.com"...

That is how it says to "jump start" the car owners and service manual. I have not looked to see if the shunt is active when the car is in the sleep state yet if that matters.

Make sure you are keeping the key out of the car and away from it. And make sure when you connect a charger to connect the Black (-) of the battery to the chassis of the car and not direct to the batt.
