hitch receiver plug by johnskev
Jan 29, 2001 (11:25 am)
Reply
i'm looking for a place to get a cool hitch receiver plug/cover. it would be really cool if i could find a nissan/infiniti one like all the chevy/ford/dodge ones i see in people hitches, but i can't find one. does anyone know a good place to get cool ones? maybe with a batsignal?
(i've checked carparts and jcwhitney, but they either have plain ones, or the chevy/ford/dodge ones, nothing cool)

Hitch and wiring harness by nismofreak

Has anyone used a non-Nissan hitch and harness on the '01 Pathy? How was the fit and finish? Is it more "universal" than the factory hitch? Also, is there any benefit to go factory or aftermarket? I am looking to tow my racecar (real soon!)
 
thanks,

Pathfinder Husky Liners by crikey

For those interested, the Husky Liners for the PF are a marvelous fit. With my Beige Leather Interior, the beige color of the liner blends in very well. I got the whole set (Front, Rear and Cargo) for about $130.00 at carparts.com. Delivery takes a while, like most things at carparts.com but it was worth it. The liners have saved me more than once in clean up. Just hose it down and dry it, you're ready to go again.

Husky Liners by phil47

Based on your recommendation, crikey, I also got the Husky liners and I'm really happy with them. I've noticed 2 flaws with them (minor). The rear seat liners block the heat vents under the seats so it takes longer to heat the rear passenger compartment. Also, the driver's side liner doesn't have a foot pad and it's starting to get scratched up pretty good.
 
About carparts.com....I'll never order with them again. It took over 2 months for delivery, the front and back sets came 3 weeks apart, and I got a message every week that delivery would be delayed just one more week (7 "one-week" delays in total). Those folks have got to get their act together.

have any of you ever dealt with with nissanaccessories.com? I need to get some side moldings, but so far you guys have only brought back horror stories about dealing with these parts sites. BTW, they only want ~$32 for the side moldings - does this sound too low to anyone else (says that's for two side moldings - hopefully left and right side, but it's not clear in the description).

Brian: Try nissanpartsusa.com by phil47

I don't know if the sites are related.
 
They sell the side moldings for $32 also. I have ordered side molding from them twice, for both my 99.5 LE and my 2001 LE. Delivery was fast (around 2 weeks) with no hidden costs or delays. This was especially impressive as I live in Canada (Calgary). Unless their service has changed in the last 3 or 4 months, I would highly recommend them. Hope this helps.
 
BTW, I'll try and post some pics of the side moldings on my trucks on this site (if I can figure out the NASA coding system...).

Like Phil47, I also ordered some accessories from nissanpartsusa.com, including the side mouldings. However, I can't speak too highly of them since it took them 2 months and 3 shipments to get the order right with one cancelled order. The side mouldings did come in on the 1st shipment (about 3 weeks) but the left mouldings was out of its wrapping and it looked pretty scratched up. There are 2 mouldings per side, so you'll need to order both sides. I haven't order from othe sites so I'm not sure how nissanpartsusa compares. But from reading previous posts, it may the lesser of all the "evils".

phil47:Husky Liners quibbles by crikey

Yeah, you're right about the rear seat liners blocking the heat vents under the seats. I never really noticed that because no one rides in my back seat right now. Thus, no one complains about it. And yeah, the driver's liner doesn't have a 'dead-pedal' on it. But I agree, there are minor flaws of an otherwise good product.
 
I didn't wait as long as you did. Mine was about 2 weeks and they all came at once.
 
Did you modify the cargo liner for the floor hooks, etc.? If so, how did you do it? Did you cut around it?

floor mats by johnskev
Jan 30, 2001 (1:19 pm)

i purchased the factory all weather floormats. great mats: thick solid rubber, 'dead-pedal', deep grooves for snow. the main drawback would be that they are only available in black, though i have a beige interior and i don't think it hurts it that much, the functionality won me. they're about $50 for 4 mats, and they fits perfect.

Cargo Liner by phil47

Actually, I have the Nissan cargo liner (very similar to Husky). Same problem though. I ended up cutting flaps in the marked positions (cut out 3 of 4 sides) on the "inside" of the ridge so the ridge still stops some spills. I wanted to be able to fold them back down when not in use. It won't stop the leaks, just slow them down.
