QX4 Questions

[naladude911]

My mom has a QX4I saw a first gen QX4 with Second Gen foglights, wtf?Did QX4's come with options from the dealers conserning brush guards? Because I have seen a bunch of QX4's with Driving off road lights, and taillight /brush guards. Do you have any pics of em on your rides?

[carnal_c30]

brushguards are a popular accessory, I have Manik brushguards and taillight guards

as far as the '01+ foglight thing goes, on a 97-00 its possible, just rewire the clearance light as a turn signal blinker and you're good to go

I have '01 HIDs on my '00 had to rewire the blinker to be a clearance light to kep the blinkers on the bumpers

What!! thats crazy the first time i seen that. How do the 01 headlights fit against the fenders, and bumper?

[carnal_c30]

theres a bit of a gap, but its finished up nicely and the grille has to be shaved on either side but it fits fine with the fenders

I'll shoot some detailed pics this weekend

I thought, from the brush guard pic, that I could see 2nd gen headlights on a first gen QX4. BTW, we have a dog, and my mom doesnt take care of the Q!!!!!. The car has beige leather seats, and ive tried almost everything, but you can still see all of the dirt engraved in them. Any suggestions?

Spot Shot carpet cleaner or Shout laundry stain remover.

would that fit the pathfinder of the same year?

[carnal_c30]

yup =p also I have a hayden trans cooler peaking out there too thats a useful upgrade for any Qx4/Pathfinder

as far as the leather, I use lexol products cleaner and conditioner.

you can use stuff such as softscub, I've seen the Lexus guys use it and I tried it on my Lexus and it works great but then we do have coated leather blah blah blah and I'm not sure if its great for the overall longevity

another method would be to use a steam cleaner on the cracks and crevasses, that probably would work really well if you can find a good steam cleaner.

and yes the burshguard will fit a Pathfinder

like carnal_c30 said, leather cleaner and paper towels... scrub hard... followed by leather conditioner as a dressing dont worry bout longetivity, ive found QX4 leather to be extremely tough and durable, cleaning only makes it better

[naladude911]

ya, ive been using fantastic, but after reading my dad's tahoe user manual "Dont use solvents, just use water to clean leather surfaces as it will destroy the leather" ive stopped. Il try a leather cleaner
