Car: 94 hardbody xe 4x4

I see that a few people buy parts from courtesynissan are there other sites that have better prices? I'm sure some sites have higher or lower prices on diff. items.Or even used parts? My 94 hardbody xe 4x4 only has 90K miles with excellent paint but some plastic parts have gone south.

Tail lights (26526-010G00 its the LH) – got hit on the left rr corner so its busted. I’m thinking of replacing it with OEM or might as well buy a set of good aftermarket LED or conventional lights without the orange/amber. I saw a few nice ones here but the posts didn’t say where they got them or no longer available. Help please!

I need L&RH sunvisors (96400 and 96400-3B010), do I replace them with the velour material sunvisors that the dealers are selling in place of the vinyl ones that we have? Or get one from another Nissan? What fits aside from parts from a Pathfinder?

Cowl vents (66815 and 66814-0S700) – thinking of making them out of those aluminum diamond screens (gutter guards) that people use for grills, then put some plastic piping around them. Has anyone done this?

Also need glove box latch (F8630-75P10) will other Nissan ones fit aside front a Pathfinder, one frt hub cap with small will hole for 4wd switch.

Will continue searching this site but any help on these things would be great!

Thanks!

Junkyards are the best place for stuff cheap. May have to hunt for a while to find good parts but they are out there. if you have a pull a part junkyard they are the cheapest and you can walk in and search yourself.

Thanks for the reply RT22 but I live here in Reno and there's not a lot of junkyards and not a lot of D21s. Plus the visor and cowl vents are common problems so they're all gone and if you find one they probably won't last long. Yep they're out of OE tail lights and center caps too. As for the glove box latch they sell the whole glove box so for the price they charge you might as well spring for a new latch.

The ac vents from NISSAN are like 250 bucks and only come as a full set. I hunted for 2 yrs to find my used one, they are a known problem after a long time they crack and break.

Do you have a good friend in another state that can hunt down and get and ship you the parts? other than that you will pay way too much, and try ebay.
