2016 X-Trail: Plastic covers for roof bar mounting holes

    Hired a roofbox and roof bars recently.

    There were black plastic covers on the roof which clip in and out to cover the holes where the roof rails attach to the car.

    Unfortunately the clips on a couple of the plastic covers snapped when clipping them out to fit the roof bars... they sat back in but were not secure. One has now gone missing!

    I don't know the correct name for these things but can't find anything on Micks Garage / Ebay etc.

    Would like to get a couple of replacements.

    Anyone point me in the right direction?

    Thanks.

    Definitely worth trying your local Nissan dealer first - quite often these parts are no where near the cost you think they would be from a main dealer. Also the benefit that the parts guy can pop out to the car to see which bits you mean, if he doesn't already know.

    Yeah, main dealer parts shop should sort you out. eBay won't be much use unless you know the specific part number or name.
