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?

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.

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
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...

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

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