I would think that it would be fairly easy to run a wire that would, though.

Right, but also keep in mind it might interfere with the shifting if you plug something that protrudes out far enough...

Sooo, how do you get that silver side piece off?

Don't want to break anything on a new truck!

Start at the bottom and gently pull. It will pop off.

Default Discount code for prosport.com

If you are going to buy from Prosport.com, use the coupon code "370z" or "prosport" (without quotes) for a 10% discount at checkout.

I'm getting the green/white performance gauge, white during day to match the dash gauges, green at night to match display colors; let's hope it looks like I think it will...
