I went with the 140's with the optional low-profile mounts. I then reversed and lowered the bullbar light mounts so I could tuck the lights neatly back between the rails. Finally, I found a guy on line who sells an HID bulb mount kit to replace the bi-pins that came with the 140's. Light Force does sell an HID version but only up to 35 watts, and I wanted 55 with the ability to choose my own ballasts. Here's a picture of the result. FWIW: Those little boxes below the lights are the relocated inner parking sensors.

I've got an '04 QX56 with a JBA Exhaust and Injen CAI w/ 2* timing advance already done. Not a whole lot of performance mod's available for the truck since the '04's can't utilize the Bullydog.

Was considering the JBA Headers offered, but wondering if they're worth the money. I've read in some places that unless your stock ones are cracked, it's not worth it- while others say the aftermarket ones are more prone to cracking. Thoughts? ]]> Performance Mods jmass03 http://www.clubarmada.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22166 Keyfob programming issues http://www.clubarmada.com/forums/showthread.php?t=22165&goto=newpost Tue, 15 May 2012 15:51:28 GMT Hi there, I am new to this sight but have been reading posts and found them to be very insightful and was wondering if I could possibly get some help.
I have a 2004 Nissan Armada and for the past 6 months my keyfobs won't stay programmed. I have been able to reprogram them each time but this time it'll go into program mode just won't program. I have replaced all batteries and even ordered new ones and I'm still having the same issue they won't stay programmed, does anyone have any ideas, please help... :(

2. Upgrade the speakers and add 3rd row speakers
3. Upgrade the rear TV

I'm willing to trade 22" Magnaflow 12586 or buy your stock exhaust. It's just to loud for my wife and infant son.

I purchased and installed the Magnaflow 12586 exhaust last week. It's practically brand new.

Hopefully someone has one for sale or want's to trade.

I'm willing to pay for the trader's exhaust install in order to get your stock exhaust.

Im getting this irritating whirling noise while in motion coming from the front end of the truck. It doesnt start doing till at or about 50mph to 70mph, anything faster it goes away. Ive replaced the front bearings along with tires and its still doing it. A few months ago I had a front differential leak coming from a seal by the axle....it got replaced only to start leaking again. Is it possible that the front differential is causing this? I dont have it in 4 wheel drive therefore Im factoring it out but who knows???..... Could it be caused by the driveshaft? Any thoughtful tips will be greatly appreciated.......
