Merged - Deleted "Wanted"

[Bigrig]

I've got a Mav, and the second row seats don't have head restraints.

Can anyone advise what changes are necessary to fit the later seats with head rests, if any?

I'd be surprised if they weren't just a straight bolt on job mate ... mine have headrests, so if at some stage over the coming week or so you have some time, I could slip over and we could measure up the bases so you at least know what you're up against if they don't fit.

Hi,

I'm after a spare wheel bracket for the RH rear barn door for a 2010 DX GU, with the bolts. Anyone have one for sale please? Have a Kaymar dual wheel carrier but won't be going travelling for some time so intend to remove the Kaymar arms & refit a spare tyre on a standard GU wheel bracket. I'm in Brisbane.
cheers

I've got one now - no longer wanted

cheers

Hi O4OFF,

Just caught up on your thread on your roll over, so sorry you had that bad experience, but so good that you & your family didn't suffer any injuries. I phoned that wrecker today too after looking at their website chasing a spare wheel bracket for the rear barn door on my GU. No joy but I asked the guy about the GUs on their site - got all excited thinking there's got to be a bracket off at least one of those wrecks but got the same answer as you. Hope your rebuild is going to plan.

cheers,

Hi everybody,

I am after a white flare to suit a 2011 GU wagon. It is on the drivers side and the rear door.

Hi John,

Have look on this site - any good to you? It might need colour matching by a clever sparypainter?

Thanks mate, yeh , trouble is, when you do find one at the Wreckers, it will most likley be so expensive you wont buy it anyway !

Ebay mate, bet you will get a whole door with one on, they come up all the time.





And yes, the Wrecker pic situation is very frustrating to say the least, ive rang twice, and spoke to 2 different people over 3 weeks asking about panels from the exact same white GU (in the ad Yendor posted), no parts are available in white, yet the ad showing the 99 white GU wagon, is "still" there today, read the ad, its very descriptive about that one car (car 786), so its not just some general we've got GU parts ad, but ring for avilability first, its, here is the car in our yard, "call for price"............ if no panels (including the roof) are available in white, the car is gone, 3 weeks is long enough to update the site !


Honestly, all this leads me to conclude, that they, (Wreckers in general, and this is only one example) are happy to blatantly advertise pictuers of parts they simply do not have, in any other retail industry this would "surely" be classed as FALSE ADVERTISING, and as far as im aware is against the law for a reason, but more than that, it quite simply just PI$$ES PEOPLE OFF !


Anyway, i opted to spend 15% more on what the wreckers wanted to charge, and buy "brand new" genuine panels from Nissan !

I would still be interested in any white GU panels if anyone comes across them at a good price, be good to have for the next "incident"

Hi Dingo,

I saw that one. I am hoping I can get a white one so I dont have to get anything spray painted. The re is also a seal kit and the fitting kit to get.

Thanks

You make a very good piont mate, it's false advertising but more than that it's just down right misleading to customers, or potential customers, and treats them with contmept & disrespect. It's a rude practice & it's either intentional or laziness - either way it's very unhelpful, particuarly for a bloke in your situation.

cheers
