AFAIK the GCC PF diesels are built in Barcelona and I know that there is a Spanish built gasoline model as well but I was reading something about gasoline PF models being imported from the US into Saudi also so maybe it depends on which GCC country.coom1986 wrote:The GCC spec pathys come with the headlight aiming control. Its the same on shown on the pic..Any idea where GCC spec pathys come from??
Thanks David, a far as I've been able to see the S models from both manufacturing plants might potentially be the better vehicles with less electrics to screw up, no remote cooling system at the back of the truck with lines to wear out and in the case of the NA model come in at about 200 lbs lighter than other models as there's no sunroof and other weight so there's some extra load capacity on the NA S model as well.V8supercarsrock wrote:I have the ST 4x4 model (read Poverty Pack) in a Turbo Diesel in Aust and it has the headlight adjuster as pictured above. The Australian models are all imported from Spain.
Hope this helps

Thanks Coom, I've heard that there are fields full of wrecked new trucks over there as well. What's a set of auto wrecker used HID headlamp assemblies for an 05 to 07 LHD PF/Frontier costing in Dubai these days?coom1986 wrote:I live in Dubai, i thought the pathys over here were imported from the US. All GCC spec vehicles come with beefed up cooling systems, better A/C performance and improved dust filteration. Acording to a local autosite, they said, GCC representatives were there during the development phases inorder to make sure they can handle the rough climate and the harsh conditions, only then were they given the "ok" to go into production. People over here love off roading in the desert!!
Anyways, you mite as well go with the after market.
Cheers..

Did your truck come with Halogen lights or HID and do you know if an HID lamp bulb is recommended for use in that type of lamp case or would you have to buy new lamp cases to install HID bulbs?
If you're talking with your dearlership parts department maybe ask them what the cost of a replacement motor for a headlamp costs or if it comes as attached to a complete headlamp assembly and also what a new light control switch costs. Too much to ask but it would be interesting to the NA members on the forum to see a photo of how the adjustment motor is attached to the back of the headlamp case.
