I researched the installation of the Factory Fog Light Kit PN 999L1-4Z000 for a Versa Note and it appears to be fairly straight forward although I have one question.

Does the body computer need to be reprogrammed to allow the proper operation of the fog lamps once the installation is complete? The installation instructions PDF does not mention it but it shows a schematic that the wiring goes through the body computer module.

A while ago I installed a similar kit on my Jeep and that required a dealer reprogram to enable the fog lamps to function.

Any advice on how to remove the radiator cover?

The instructions say to pull up on the radiator cover to remove it, but it seems like it refuses to budge.

Wow, it's crazy so many people are having such a difficult time with this. I installed my aftermarket OEM-style fog lights in about 30 minutes by myself with basic hand tools. Maybe the Note is harder to work with, but I had no trouble disassembling all of the plastic shrouds underneath the car.

Unfortunately the OEM Fog light kit for the Versa Note SV requires access to the wiring harness located behind the the radiator cover and grille.

These two pieces are secured to each other and the car via multiple plastic clips. There a very real possibility that the clips may break if forced incorrectly.

I hope one of the previous posters that managed to remove the radiator cover and grille can provide some insight on to how to finesse these pieces off the car.

I believe jose92013 and dude baker both have the Versa sedan, which has a very different looking grille and front bumper setup. I have a feeling the installation is different on the sedan vs the note.

I'll have to find some time to try the install again. Hopefully I have more luck. The difficulty of removing the radiator cover is annoying, especially if future radiator repair/replacement is needed.

I have a 2015 Note SV,

I checked the entire harness, every single corner. Then I took come of the tape from the wire loom and counted the wires and colors, and traced them to their locations. I removed the intake too. I traced every wire to every fuse. Thats when I realized there was no Fog Light Fuse. there is no fuse and the fuse place doesnt have contacts either. So if you place a fuse, the current goes nowhere because there is no wire. I also opened up the Relay box, which contains the Fog light relay and fan relays. There was 2 relays, as per description, However, the wires coming out the "fog lights" relay were FAR TOO SMALL to take any significant current. I'm a electronic Technician of 8 yrs, And about to finish my Bachelors in Electrical Engineering. I know what I'm talking about. I also tried to turn on the fog lights, and feeling the relay. nothing. NADA.

No fuse, No wires, No Relay, No connector. Nissan decided to Fuck everyone who doesnt pay up for 1 fuse 1 relays and 10 ft of wire. Sorry but I dont think you will find it if you have a 2015 model. I spent 7 hrs today and never found it. The circuit doesnt exist.

I also have a 2015 Note SV and am looking to do the fog light addition.

I opened up my fuse box and I am also missing the Fog Light Fuse (supposed to be the last fuse on the lower right). However, it looks like there are fuse contacts in the slot.

Does this look like what you found on your SV?

I'm trying to figure out if I have a chance at this install or if I'm in the same boat as you.
