2012 Nissan Altima - Nissan Murano

Well my 2003 murano had to get the transmission replaced with only 65K....under nissan CVT warranty. They gave me a 2012 altima loaner....I notice as I unlocked the car door the 2012 Altima has a LED under the car ambient lighting for night time which I though was cool. I was woundering if there is such a thing for the murano?

Not that I know of for an 05. I have an 04 so they're virtually the same.

A simple circuit can get you what you want though. You'd need to isolate the signal that turns on the lights when you go to unlock your car. Put that signal (assuming it's 12V) through a relay coil to ground. The relay switch would trip and light an LED light bar under your car. Just find a light bar with the right lumens output you want and you're good to go. Only thing you need to find is a place to install it under the car that won't get smashed if a shop goes to lift it. Doesn't sound like too hard of an upgrade.
