Ford?? I dont know specifically but someone has to have a .pdf of it online.

Thanks for the kind words! It means a lot!

Sounds like you are jumping right into the deep end. I like that!

I will beat them everytime.

That is the metal connector that screws into the pumpkin and the breather hose connects to. The breather hose is a seperate part. PART NUMBER 38323-C6010 DESCRIPTION: CONNECTOR, BREATHER HOSE $2.55 (Nissan List: $3.45) PART NUMBER 38323-C6010 DESCRIPTION: HOSE, BREATHER, REAR $6.81 (Nissan List: $9.23) there is also a clap holding the breather hose onto the connector: PART NUMBER 01555-00771 DESCRIPTION: CLAMP, BREATHER HOSE, REAR $1.97 (Nissan List: $2.67) And a bracket and bolt holding the breather in place: PART NUMBER 38325-0W000 DESCRIPTION: BRACKET, BREATHER HOSE, REAR $3.63 (Nissan List: $4.82) PART NUMBER 38325-0W000 DESCRIPTION: BOLT, BRACKET, BREATHER HOSE, REAR $0.75 (Nissan List: $1.02) and I can ship any or all of this for $5.85 since it dosnt weigh anything.

They are fine for basic recovery such as pulling it onto the back of a flatbed towtruck or another truck pulling/assiting to get yours out of being stuck in the mud, anything hard core I would definately upgrade the hooks.

If you havent before, shoot me a PM with what you are looking for. I can check and see if any of the warehouses or any dealer has them

With the hoops around the headlights, yeah it was a fair price. Back in the day those two hoops were sold seperate from the center piece. All together it was about $260-300 or so after tax new.IIRC

Basically correct Tungsten. Excellent question Sewebster! Federal regulations have it that factory parts OR an alternative have to be available for 10 years. (note: this doesnt cover accessories) BUT sometimes you may have once been able to get say.....just a mirror glass by itself. They may consolidate parts and make it if you want the glass you have to get the whole mirror. Techncally they are still providing the part.... Also, this way they only have to stock one part number instead of several. There also may be what are called service files. Ran into one today. The guy had a 1998 frontier. He wanted just the tailgate lock on the side of the tailgate. Its an $8.50 part. But to get that part now you have to replace the whole entire lock mechinism with one from a 01-04 Frontier and you have to get the bolts, both cables, both side locks. SO it would cost $58. Again, they are technically porviding something. This is usually caused because the original supplier went out of business and they came up witha solution that will work, or the original was failing to much and they redesigned it in 2001 and retroactively make you fix the problem. Now as to older vehicles and parts availability. They way I like to put it is: "Nissan will keep them running and drivable, but not looking pretty." Nissan is fairly good about keeping engine, brake and transmission parts in stock for years. Interior and body parts get sketchy after 10 years and tend to rely on 'whats left over'. The general variables to being still available are: 1) how many they still have on the self in the nissan warehouses 2) demand (note:aftermarket effects this) 3) how many of the vehicles were sold 4) if the part supplier is still in business 5) cost vs profit margin to import part to the US if supplier is overseas 6) and what like to call 'Mr Nissan just felt like it' As pointed out the VG30 was used on a lot of Nissans for a long time. So there is lots of demand still. Many vehicles also share the same parts. The 300zx, Pathfiner WD21, Hardbody D21 and D21U, Frontier D22U and Xterra WD22 all have some common parts on them so thats a long stretch there. Same sort of story for the KA24, VG33 and VQ35. Used a long time on several models. Also, some of the parts simply havent changed since the 1960's. A bolt is a bolt and screw is a scew. Cant redesign that to much. So a scew or clip used on a Datsun in the 1960s is still being used in 2012 Remember, the manufacturers make more $/profit margin on parts than they actually do on the vehicle itself. The general business model over the years has moved to one of selling you a car for a small(er) profit so we can sell you parts and labor. So they want to sell you (or insurance companies) parts and they want to keep them around. I hope that answers the question and makes sense.

Very nice work! I like the LED idea for fun! With the white truck, some soft blue LEDs with an on/off switch might be nice!! WAY back in the day there were some fully open ones offered by Nissan Motorpsorts....but they are long long gone.

Yeah it bolts together. The kit comes in a deceptively small box that is like 40x14x8 or so.

I heard my name mentioned! I think Precise1 is my #1 fan! LOL In the industry jargon, the outer black moulding strips on the top of the door are called 'belt mouldings'. Nissan is also very proud of theirs.......... PART NUMBER: 80820-01G00 DESCRIPTION: MOULDING, BELT, FRONT, RH $53.22 (NISSAN LIST:$72.12) PART NUMBER: 80821-01G00 DESCRIPTION: MOULDING, BELT, FRONT, LH $59.47 (NISSAN LIST: $80.58) PART NUMBER: 82820-83G00 DESCRIPTION: MOULDING, BELT, REAR, RH $92.09 (NISSAN LIST: $124.78) PART NUMBER: 82821-83G00 DESCRIPTION: MOULDING, BELT, REAR, LH $92.09 ( NISSAN LIST: $124.78) And the inner ones that go along the top and attach to the top of the door panels: PART NUMBER: 80834-01G00 DESCRIPTION: WEATERSTIP, INSIDE, DOOR, FRONT, RH $33.76 ( NISSAN LIST: $45.75) PART NUMBER: 80835-01G00 DESCRIPTION: WEATERSTIP, INSIDE, DOOR, FRONT, LH $33.76 ( NISSAN LIST: $45.75) PART NUMBER: 82834-83G00 DESCRIPTION: WEATERSTIP, INSIDE, DOOR, REAR, RH $18.56 ( NISSAN LIST: $25.15) PART NUMBER: 82835-83G00 DESCRIPTION: WEATERSTIP, INSIDE, DOOR, REAR, LH $18.54 ( NISSAN LIST: $25.12) Last time I checked I could still get all of them....I think we stock the front belt mouldings. -Rob

Is that Carter's Salvage off Hedgecox in Plano????

Yep looking at the shape that is the correct one! Lookin good!!

Fender Liner protector for a 1994 240sx S14 Note the production date on the label. SHOULD say "year/month/day"

As a follow up, I tried to take a picture today, but it didnt come out very well. The flourescent lighining and the dark labyrinth of the parts aisles made the picture to dark. I looked at the timing belts we had on the shelf. Their production date was 11 Feb 12. Made in Japan. something else to consider is the current part number is a supercession part number from the original one from the 90's.....so the original 90's part number doesnt even exist anymore.

http://www.autometer.com/cat_accessorieslist.aspx?pid=26 you can also special order them from autozone at a store or on their website.

I would not be surprised by a burnt out wheat bulb ether. as pointed out above you can get them at radio shack. Radio Shack part number 272-1092. Once it gets colder, if the drivers side isnt working, swap the switches. If it works then you have a bad switch. If it doesnt I wouldnt be surprised by a broken heater element in the seat cushion on the dirvers side since it is sat on so much over the years. the heater pad is very thin.

Hint: If your turn on your lights at the stalk, they should have power to them Follow the path up to that point.

OMG!!!!!!! Thats a 1989.5 Subaru RX, they only made them in black for 6 months!!! The 1989.5also has a special body kit with wider side skirts and a rear skirt..... The RX was only in produciton from 1986.5-1989.5, only 4300 were sold in the US and only about 600 in the black as above, the rest were all white as you said! It is hands down in my opinion (and that of others who write for auto magazines- ie professionals) one the the most cool and and fun but forgotten vehicles of the 1980's.....and is the granddaddy of the Impreza WRX. I suspect your ex's maybe looked something like this.................... Tell me, do you still talk to her, more importantly does she still have it? Want to sell it????

i agree, test to see if there is power to the sockets, then trace the harness back along the frame and make sure there isnt any damage.

I have a confession to make.... besides Nissans I love Subarus too. But you wont get impressive mileage out of them....believe me....and they can be tempermental depending on model and year and so forth and i would definately say have a higher cost of ownership than your Pathfinder........but gosh they can be fun to drive!
