2002 Patrol mag "Hubcaps"

[Pieter du Toit]

I am looking for the plastic hubcap (it says nissan on it) that fits in the centre of the 2002 models' mag. Have been on order at Nissan Parow since Nov 2008 - still not able to get me any. Anybody now where I can get??

I managed to get the worng one, even though they had the model & VIN nr, (probably a later model) order through Wiliam Simpson (021) 710-3400. Will be taking it back next week and then the fun starts again

Stefan you could not perhaps sent me a photo of the one you got - maybe it's the ones I am looking for. If you could my private email address is pieterdt@nashuaisp.co.za - I will buy them if the right ones - how many do you have?? I need 2. May thanks.

Hi Pieter,

I'll take some photos this evening and post them tomorrow.

Hi Pieter, here are the pics as promised:

The current hubcap





The incorrect hubcap




I don't know whether it is clear from the pictures, but the incorrect hubcap is slightly bigger than the current only and quite a bit flatter.

Stefan, the incorrect hub caps that were supplied are the ones like I have on my 1999 4.5 GRX.

Stefan,

EK SOEK DAAI HUBCAPS ASSEBLIEF - EK KAN MY OE NIE GLO NIE - DIS PRESIES DIESELFDE AS MYNE!!! Ek het al die goed van Okt / Nov verlede jaar op bestelling by Nissan Parow - en hulle kon nou nog nie kry nie - was verlede week weer daar. Se net waar, hoe, wanneer en wat dit kos - ek sal dit kom haal ook. Hoeveel het jy??? My sel nommer is 082 803 5073. Baie dankie vir jou moeite!!!!

[Herrie]

Ungili het ook van daai op.

since it looks like Pieter has come right. I hope he doesnt mind the hijack
The 'wrong' ones look like the black ones on my GQ. Could Stefan's 3.0D have a different rear diff to the other petrol guys? Maybe we can unearth a pearl of wisdom regarding the different hubcaps available?

[Pieter du Toit]

Stefan,

Baie Dankie - het toe met Marius gepraat - het hom sopas al betaal vir beide "hubcaps" en hy sal vir my nog een bestel en die een wat jy het vir my hou!! Maar hier's nou vir jou n skok - R702-00 VIR EEN - EK HET BYNA N HARTAANVAL GEKRY Maar nou ja dis een van daai dinge wat jy net by agente gaan kry en daarvoor betaal ons die prys. Soos iewers elders op die forum genoem - dit sal nice wees om te weet waar kan ons ouens "generic" parte kan kry vir ons voertuie - want ek moes ook aanhoor as jy Patrol wil ry moet jy bereid wees om die prys te betaal daarvoor - dis dan die BESTE (maar mees under-rated) 4X4

Nou is ek glad bang om Nissan te vra wat gaan my termostaat (vir die overheating probleem) vir die Patrol kos - afterall die bleddie hubcap is net n stuk plastic!!!!
