Andrew/Andy did you work on the suede at all this weekend?
Yup, we did. We got the C pillars and the hatch area above the rear seat wrapped and installed. We also re-install all the dome lights. All we to have left are the B pillars, the visors and grab handles. Still have the air bag issue.

Ya, the seat belt issue really stinks. Pulled fuses, disconnected battery, swapped the complete seat belts around twice, since one said L on it. Pulled the headliner down halfway and did not see any disconnected harnesses. Other than that, the rear windows and hatch area turned out great! Even 'sueded the dip where the middle seat belt anchor goes in too!
Isn't Fields the 'bad' dealership? I go to Lisle anyways, the SA there takes care of me.

Agree. Need to put the car back before taking it the dealer. The only SRS thing we touched was disconnect the plug at the driver & passenger seat belts in the pillar B. Can't imagine by disconnecting the SRS plug would caused the problem!
Ha I'm pretty sure what triggered the air bag lights. We turn on the car with the SRS plug at the driver & passenger seat belts un-plugged. Remember we open the sun roof while trying to get the sun roof shade off? I wonder if this can be reset using a SRS Reset tool like those use on the bimmers. It's pricey though. I'm sure a quick reset is all it needed.

Nice. Thats not bad! Is the whole thing taking a lot longer than originally anticipated? I hope the 3M Dinoc comes in today. So either I will take a stab at it because I am impatient or next time there is a meet ill bring it and have something to do there...and get a hand with it so i dont mess it up
The 3M Di-Noc is very easy. Try with a door handle. I doubt you would any problem. An exacto knife, scissors and hair dryer is all you needed for this mod. Just make sure you clean the surface to wrapped with a little alcohol wipe and use a hair dryer to heat up the sheet to wrap around round corners. Have fun.

The steering wheel control parts are also just snap ons right? how much of an overhang do you allow for when wrapping?
Here is the thread on getting the steering wheel aluminum pieces off, https://www.infinitiscene.com/search/1/?q=9074-3M-Carbon-DI-NOC-Film?p=149869#post149869
I leave no more than a quarter inch overhang so I have enough to wrap it underneath/back side of the piece.

We have figured out what caused the flashing air bag light. A flashing air bag light indicates there are trouble codes stored in the SRS module. That condition is equivalent to the check engine light. During the installation, we disconnected the SRS plug located on of the driver and passenger seat belt behind the B pillar (see pic below). While the connector were disconnected we turn on the car to operate the sun roof, the SRS module detected a fault in the circuit and to record a trouble code. I found this you tube video on how to reset the flashing air bag light on a 2004 350Z. We follow the procedure in the video to successfully reset the air bag light.
In addition to resolve the flashing air bag light, we were able to finish wrapping the B pillar and re-installed them. The two visors are the remaining pieces that need to be wrapped and re-install and the grab handles have been painted and awaiting to completely cured and re-install.
