I want to find some factory or aftermarket aluminum rims for my 1999 QX4. I've seen some nice factory alloys on a Pathfinder. Where should I search? I couldn't find anything on ebay.

The other problem I'm having is that the door ajar light is starting to come on or flicker and it's setting my alarm off. Has anyone had this issue? It seems to happen more when accelerating.

Any help would be appreciated.

Can't help on the first item (rims), but as for the door switch/button problem, you should be able to isolate which one it is fairly easily.
This is fairly common on an older vehicle, especially if the little rubber boot around one or more of the door buttons is missing or cut. Dirt and water can get in and render it defective.
First, leave you ignition on, and then go around to each door and shake it up a bit. With a little luck, you'll be able to duplicate the problem and isolate which door it's coming from.
Next thing would be to go around and manually press each door and tailgate button to find which one is the "flaky"one.
Once you find it, replace it, or maybe you'll just have to clean it.
