What type of tyre's are you running at the moment ? I still have the 'factory fit' Goodyear Wranglers for now, though I would like to change them at some stage. Tyre choice over here is very limited at the moment for the 255/65x17 size.

Hmm. Good question.
Some all-season-shit. They'll do as summer-tyres for the moment, I'll get some studded winter tyres when the next winter comes.

Going out for a while now. I'll see if I can find out what brand they are.

It looks great just like it is :)
Side window deflectors, front bug guard and trailer hitch will be installed in a couple of weeks.

I'd really like the OFF ROAD emblem, But I won't pay $85 for the postage.. That's just wrong :(

Looks good!

$85? I'd be happy to mail them to you for the few real dollars that it will cost. Not sure how much the emblems cost, but I'm sure I'd have to get them from the dealer? Anyway, let me know if you'd like some help getting them. Maybe use Paypal to cover the total cost, as that seems pretty easy.

I found them here:
http://www.yournissanparts.com/catalog. ... 5&detail=1
http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchant2/ ... 894-N50R51

But I understand that the emblems are real nissan accessories in USA?
If so, the dealer should have them also..

I'd really appreciate it if you could help :)

I'd really like the black first row set of these to:
http://www.weathertech.com/store/mvprod ... &Year=2005

But I'm afraid the postage would get very expensive again.. :(

Well, the emblems from Courtesy would be ~$32.00 + shipping (probably about $4). If I put them in a small box with packing material, it should be under 1 lb. According to the US Postal Service, the cheapest shipping option would cost about $10.40 to Norway. 6-10 day Priority Mail International would be about $20 for shipping. If you are still interested, let me know & I can order the emblems for you.

The Weathertech stuff is great. I have the rear cargo liner that has seen a large amount of use so far. I opted for the simple thick all-weather front Nissan mats. They've done the job quite well.

Very interested, I'll charge my paypal tonight ;)

Are you able to assist me with the Weathertech's too? (or at least help me check "normal" postage). I can send some goatcheese back to you :D

I just sent myself a reminder email to order the emblems tonight. I'm not sure on the Weathertech though. I know my cargo liner was in a big & heavy box. Not sure how much the floor mats would weigh. If you can figure out how much the things weigh, you can check on shipping yourself: usps.com. I'd imagine it would be pretty spendy getting them to Norway.

You could always send me a Norwegian lass to replace my current Czech girlfriend :) Actually, since they don't prosecute polygomy here in funderful Utah, I could just add her to my harem.

It's all good. I've been helped out so many times when I've been in Norway that it's just returning the favor.

Certainly wish those weathertech rear mats were available over here too, the standard rubber Nissan one's are useless, two small seperate mats with no protection for the middle section of the carpet at all. :x

Great :)

Found a UK dealer of weathertechs. It'll be about $250, so I'll have to think about it.. Found one in Iceland too, but don't understand their website :D

PM me amount and paypal-address :)

Priority mail of course :p (not that important)

Thanks in advance :)

(PS, we've got the best blondes here)

You think I don't know that? :D Every time I've visited, I'd have to carry around a small towel to wipe the constant flow of drool off the sides of my mouth. I'm a brunette kind of guy myself, but I love the Nordic cheekbones and blue eyes. If I had to choose a blonde, she'd be Scandinavian.

Yeah, I've got the weathertech mats in the front and back of my PF. They are very nice mats. As far as fit and actual protection go they are probably the best I've seen.
