Wtb: Rocking Horse Poo

[masTers]

Guys/Horders chasing the following.

A pair of the plastic triangle covers behind the mirrors on a 2 door DR30 (New or used, must be in 1 piece)

A pair of the rubbers that go on the mirrors to suit a 2 door DR30 (New or slightly used)

I know they are rarer than rocking horse white, but I'm a fair man and willing to pay for them.

My rubbers simply fell apart upon removal of the mirrors for the respray.

Cheers,

Steve

Yahoo have them occasionally

as well as Jenesis, (they have carbon fiber look alikes, perfect!)

I am 'THIS' close to getting a custom set made

every set ive pulled out at the wteckers fell to bits too....

[Ghostrider]

Sedan/hatch are diferent to the coupe too!

[masTers]

All discontinued

Jenesis, omote, Nissan all have nothing!

Point of interest too, the Guy who does the carbon work at Jenesis has left, so they only have the stock on hand left. No carbon instrument surrounds left

Can you drop a picture to pinpoint exactly what your looking for please Steve?

Sedan/hatch are diferent to the coupe too!

And early HR is different to late HR/DR (fender vs. door mirrors)

I bought 2 sets of what I thought were the right ones, only to find out that they were for 'fender' HR's... I finally go the right ones via Omote/Yahoo! a couple of years ago.

[Ghostrider]

If it's what I think your talking about, "the triangular parts the mirror mounts to" ??? The early parts are now out of production, along with the filler piece and 2ndhand is the only way for these early front fender mounted rear view mirrors. The later model items are possibly available but I need to know exactly what I'm looking at.

Cheers, D

[Ghostrider]

Is this what we're looking for?

[Ghostrider]

Come on guys I see your there lol

[BensDR30]

Your image shows the window channel/seal (in reasonable condition), the remnants of the 'mirror seal' and the plastic section. I'm assuming the pieces in question are the 'mirror seal' that goes over the mirror mount plus the plastic clip in triangle (the one that keeps falling off on my passenger side...). Mine too fell apart when I got the car in '02 (I finally found the import paperwork tonight!)

[masTers]

That's it. And that black triangly bit too

[Ghostrider]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

I might be taking mine off the DR trackstarr and try fitting early series mirrors so I don't risk breaking the later model electric mirrors playing Fangio. I probably have about 6 spare doors I can look at, so I'll look tomorrow and so on.

I'm surprised they are not available ex Japan, but I guess everything for these cars will be in the same boat eventually.

I'm looking for a 3.9:1 R200 diff too, open will suffice as I have 3 x 4.11:1 LSD's I can play with.

I'll reply if I'm successful.

Have you tried glueing them in situe with something black.

Cheers, D

I bought a set of them new through my local Nissan dealer a couple of months ago

Are they now out of stock?

Mine had to come ex Japan

[Ghostrider]

Do you still have the part number you bought them on?

My parts list does not list them at all.

Thanks, D

[BensDR30]

These what you're after?

I found a pair stashed in the shed, never used, but one of the stand-offs has snapped while in storage.

[masTers]

Yeah was keen on them, more keen on the rubbers but.

PM me a price if you are selling.

Nissan has discontinued the rubbers, and there are none in stock anywhere in Aus/Japan

[benny_blanco]

makes me feel like an arse, because I have been meaning to buy new rubbers for my mirrors for the last 2 years, except recently when I was finaly got around to it I found out they are out of stock

Does anyone know if nissan do a re-run of spares every so often?
