I had mail ordered an Android device so that I could use the CANION software. Yesterday, it showed up at the "ship to store" and I picked it up. I DO have a smart-phone, which happens to be an iPhone. Unfortunately, the CANION app only runs on Android, which I don't have. That's not a terrible...

How do I remove the seat WITHOUT setting off the airbag flag? In all the installation videos I have seen, the first step is always to remove the seat. I'd plan to shoot a video while I do the installation. I'm also wondering on people's thoughts for location of the switch and connection to...

My seat heater kit just showed up in the mail. Here's what it looks like. In the kit are two heating elements, a fuse and holder, and wire harness including relay and switch.

I got to see this car in person a few months ago. The light upgrades looked great!

I rather like the seat heater. Too bad there is none for the passenger! Does anyone have experience with an aftermarket seat heater? One where you actually remove the seat, take off the upholstery, and install the pad inside? I ordered one (for the passenger seat) and am looking for tips on...

When pulled in forward, the back corner of the car (where the charge port is) is in a place that it would be very difficult to put a light. If I'm parked right in FRONT of my garage, the charge port also happens to be away from any light. I moved my EVSE to a position for it to reach easily...

Yes, I am looking forward to improved range in the spring. My first trip was pretty much the absolute worst possible combination of conditions. What I liked was that EVEN in those conditions, it was STILL a very usable car. I always like proving nay-sayers wrong. I think a light under the...

Just as another option... Another good material to work with for a compact car "bedliner" is in the paneling department of your big box home-improvement store. Cheap paneling is light but sturdy, and really can't splinter. It's more of a "press-board". You should be able to get melamine...

Here's my adventure blog of driving the car home. http://300mpg.org/2015/11/20/imiev-cross-country-snow-storm-road-trip/ Here's the video about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=idndjjFZzxY Of course, I'll have to start making some memes as well. One of the other things I did wrong when I...

Hey guys, yep, that's me. I picked up a 2012 iMIEV. The price was $6995. It has 30,000 miles on it, which seems really high compared to many of the cars out there, but it also has the fancy radio, alloy rims, and quick charger. About the lowest I've seen iMIEVs for lately was $6500, and that...

For Sale: Complete J1772 Charging Inlet from an iMiev, complete with associated wire harness. Properly unplugged and disconnected from vehicle. Harness is marked with part number 9499 and C337. Zero corrosion on terminal pins. Price: Best Offer. Will ship from near Milwaukee, Wisconsin...

Hi Jonathan, I have a 2012 berry/purple iMiev that I'm parting out, and it has both headlights and fog lights. Can you be more specific as to what part you need? Typically "Daytime Running Light" just refers to running the headlight all the time, but at a lower power. Do you mean the fog light...

Here's the latest video and photos on my blog. http://300mpg.org/2014/07/22/imiev-spinning-the-motor/http://300mpg.org/2014/07/22/imiev-spinning-the-motor/

All the cells are totally shot. I've thought of the idea of getting a wrecked iMIEV and transplanting the battery and cards into this body, but the few wrecked auctions I've found, the cars have gone for SHOCKINGLY hight prices. I guess I'm still trying to figure out the highest and best use...

The car body and frame are actually both in really good condition. Rust only happened in places that are normally NOT painted. For example, under the front seats, the mechanism that lets you slide the seat forward and back is rusted up. The steering column has rust, but that doesn't effect it's...

Here's all the videos I've done so far on the car. http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmHss3DBZUikU6Iae3UlaNH73UojlDIkM Yesterday, I cracked open the motor controller to take a look inside. There was salt-water corrosion inside on the battery connections, but the rest of it looked fine. All...

I have no reason to think that the motor, controller, and charger aren't just fine. Those are really outside the vehicle, so they are pretty well sealed up against the weather. That said, without a working battery pack, there's not much of a way to test them. A friend of mine does some work...

Hey Guys, I have that complete "water damaged" purple iMIEV. The batteries are shot, but the body is in perfect condition. It would be an excellent vehicle to combine with a wreck to make one good working EV. I'd be interested in either buying a wrecked vehicle or selling mine to somebody...
