    Hawairish and TowndawgR50 are teaming up!

    I rolled around with the same license plate bracket for a few weeks before@Towndawgr50 hooked me up with my custom plate bracket. The one I had was the prototype bracket and it worked flawlessly. No rattling of any kind honestly if you put a nice powder coat or anodized finish on it, it would look really great . It is a perfect way on mounting your plate and really easily running a light to it.

    Looking good! Now you just a matching spare for those Bfs. Whats the plate frame you have?
     

    I am waiting till next winter to get a set of Yokohama geolander mt’s. But first will be the awesome sfd that they are coming out with. . And the little black guy on top of my license plate is a back up light from v-leds. It’s bright as hell.

    I was lucky enough to get in on the swinggate fest nw edition at@Towndawgr50 ’s compound a few weeks ago. Here has been my review on it thus far.

    While these are not common in any 2003 pathfinders I found that the installation was very straight forward. Like any swing gate they will make some sort of sound going over large bumps but I can assure you this thing is solidly mounted.

    You will want some heavy duty springs due to the fact that the factory tire carrier is pretty beefy. This is definitely not a one person job.

    I did have a jerry mount welded onto the carrier as well as a custom plate mount.

    This is a pretty cheap mod considering what the Toyota guys pay for a swing gate.

    With the kit that Pines to Spines will be producing I am sure it will make this a very common addition to the post face lift r50’s.

    Curious about the shifter as well. [mention=39745]stpickens[/mention] HVAC is a ‘03 LE, while in the same place, it looks different than my ‘02 LE.[mention=41155]astrorami[/mention] don’t you have a ‘01?c14b5225808c7482cf9ba768f07670d2.jpg

    My gear shifter turned out to be the same bulb as the license plate bulb.

    Are you sure the hvac are t4? Could they be t3?

    They are Definitely T4. Depending on who you buy the leds through their led housing could need sanded a little. I like v-leds products but the housing the led sits on is a wee bit thick and needs a little sanding. Once they are a little thinner they fit.

    Random picture of your R50

    It’s funny, I think we have four shades of black between us. @‘02_Pathy is glossy to match his paint, I think[mention=37543]TowndawgR50[/mention] is next with a worn gloss then your satin & then my nearly matte Chassis Black. I note the SW crew is all different shades of silver.


    Honestly I thought about going silver but I worried about it matching. I played it safe with satin black to kind of go with the rolla rack.
