I need 1 wheeltrim/hub cap ?

andrew1977

Does anyone know where i can get them cheaply online or in a bricks and mortar shop ?

I lost one today out driving and obviously dont want to have to but a full set if i can avoid it.

Its for an 04 Nissan Primera, the standard wheeltrim that does be on the model

Wheres my bestion option for 1 or the cheapest place to buy a set ?

Cheers folks

LOL, Yeh you can go to a Nissan Dealer and wait for the order then get ripped off. Scrap merchant is your best option.

cheers folks for the reply, was thinking of the scrap yard alright, anyone recommend a decent one in north county dublin /louth area ?

Price a replacement in a main dealer - they may not be as expensive as you might think (I could be wrong!) Main dealers sell them as single items. It's worth checking the price before you start visiting the scrappies.

eBay sometimes has single hubcaps up for sale. You could try that aswell.

I rang a main Nissan Dealer this morning ... they wanted 52 euro for 1 wheeltrim :eek: :eek:

If i dont get one in a scrap yard... i will be buying a cheapo set in Halfords and selling the remaining 3 on my car:D ... it must be a lucrative business !

Wow! I remember buying a single hubcap as an exact match for my set a year or two ago for €13 from a Ford dealer... That's crazy money from Nissan!!

Friend of mine got an opel one a couple of months ago for 16quid. Are you sure you didn't price a whole set? or an 18ct gold one?

Nope i doublechecked it when he said 52 euro, i asked him was that for the full set !.. oh no sir that is per wheel trim ...

Scandulous price ...still shocked over it... that would be 208 euro for the set...robbery

Maybe try a a diffeerent dealer. You could have just been talking to an idiot in the dealer you phoned

andrew1977

I rang a few more Nissan dealers.... price ranged from the inital 52 euro down to 35 Euro

One guy in Nissan Drogheda can get me a second hand one for 20 euro.Will take him up on the offer

Just shows again what a rip off main dealers can be ... 52 euro for 1 wheeltrim, where would you see it !

You could almost buy a set of aftermarket alloy wheels for that price.

my alloys cost me 120 quid plus 30 a corner for the rubber.

52 quid for a piece of ugly plastic is nuts.

I wouldn't feel safe in a car with 30 euro tyres!
