Everyone who's saying they want one, are you willing to pay what it'll cost to get them here? Who's got a connection in Japan in the export business? Hook me up with one good contact there and I'll try to make it happen IF people will actually be willing to pay fir them even though they'll be expensive.
I think they only way we'll be able to find out is for someone to get their hands on those and try them out. I wish I could help.

They should have defenitely released that keyfob over here. People would have been buying Infiniti's for that alone.

From the website, the MSRP is 59800 and 45900 yen.

That would translate into $664 and $510 USD.

Americans are damn lazy.

We only work 5 days a week.

Those "entrepeneurs" you speak of work 7 days a week in their stores/shops/restaurants etc.

We'll look into it; but we havn't had much success with JDM items, as it is VERY pricey. The prices you see on the japanese website will be 2-3x after it comes here due to shipping, taxes, tarrifs, etc etc.

E.G., JDM fog lights for the previous gen coupe... well... lets say that our COST was well over a grand for them.

So ironically I was parked between an SUV and a truck today and I reversed into the spot and when it was time to go, I slowly moved forward and had no problems getting out of that spot. So again, how would the camera come into use?
