I also don't recall them talking about how they take the doors off after painting and then later reattach them.
This plant seems a bit more automated than some I've seen. I've usually seen seats being put in w/o robots but rather humans w/assistance from machinery.

It seems they skipped over a lot of the stuff that normally goes on in final assembly like installing a lot of the interior components (e.g. seat belts, hooking up stuff to the wiring harnesses, etc.)Published on Jan 22, 2013
Take a behind-the-scenes tour of Nissan Motor Kyushu Co in Fukuoka, Japan, where Nissan cars including the Note, X-Trail, Rogue and Serena are made.
