Hi Patrollers

I am looking for 2 centre caps that come with the alloy wheels. The rear ones have the Nissan logo on and the front ones have a hole.

Are the ones on the Hardbody's the same? :think:

As an off-roader with an old, battered, scratched and dented 4x4 I firmly beleive that the only thing a hubcap has ever been usefull for is as a parts-washing tin or a bird-feeding dish.
And the plastick ones are useless for this. :rolling:

Yes - I hate them too !! I lost my front one somewhere between Kaokoland and Stellenbosch a year ago and was hoping somebody upgraded to some nice Dick-Cepek rims and nolonger required theirs :pray:

The other one is for the spare as Tinus organised some nice rubber for the 'Big White Hole' and my existing cover will no longer fit... so here is hoping... :helpsos:

David the hardbody's is a fraction smaller, I will have a look if i don't have one lying around. With the hole in the center?

Thanks G-Man! Was wondering about the Hardbody's as they will be easier to get.

The hole doesn't matter as I am looking for one of each in any case. If I can get 2 with badges I will use my dremel tool on the one :chopwood:

Sooooooooo - did I miss out on something? What's the verdict - Will the HardBody 16" rims' hubcaps fit the Patrol rims?
:think: :sleep:
