This is my first time ever doing this on my car and I thought I should share it in the forums. I think it’s cool and I highly recommend any of you to do this to your beautiful maxima as this looks so dope at night! I did this all by myself and I think I did a great job.

In total, I got the whole module for about $100 on Amazon and 2 cans of paint (duplicolor) for about $15 so it cost me about $115. Other places would charge you about $700 – $1000. Mine is a 300-star kit and you can always upgrade to more stars. They go all the way up to 1000 stars. These are the channels that helped guide me so it could help you as well!

Install Notes:

  • It’s all done on the same headliner. It took me about 10 hours to perfect every marking and glue the optic fibers to the headliner and I let the glue cure for 2 days. I would not recommend supergluing the fibers because when you superglue the fibers, it can eat away at them as it dries. You can use hot glue or some paste or silicone but don’t use a lot just a drop.
  • The main trick is getting the headliner out and back in. I’m sure there are instructions on the forums to get it out but basically, I just unbolted the door a bit to allow it to open as wide as it could and i didn’t have to remove it. I removed all seats to get reupholstered anyway and the center console and parking brake were removed as well and it came out fine. Be careful when you bend it to get out because u can crack it but i didnt crease or crack mine.
  • When I finally put it back in, I took the sunroof door out from the backside near the rear window it comes out with 2 little tabs that unscrew on the top of the brackets that hold the sunroof on. Just slide it out through there and slide it back in. So basically, get the whole headliner back, in the same way, you took it out, be sure to tape the sunroof to the headliner to not fall (you can remove the tape after its in) then once the headliner is inside put the sunroof door in FIRST!
  • Allow an extra strand of optic fiber about 12 inches to go back and forth without pulling any out and you are good. If you don’t have a sunroof it will be easier or if you don’t want to put any fibers in the sunroof.
