Bulkhead Cowl corner rubbers

[Stevie P]

hi guys

Anyone know of a source for the bulkhead cowl corner rubbers / buffers? The small triangular corner pieces that sit in front of the A Pillar, adjacent to the fender corner ar the windshield, if that makes sense!

Cheers,

Steve

Im not sure what you mean.

Can you locate it on this link? Datsun 260Z/280Z Cowl Top & Cowl Top Grille (2 Seater) (From Aug.-'73)

Vintage rubber or Banzai might be your best change.

Hi Chas

Thanks for that link, I am after the protectors shown at item 15, 66882-N4600.

They appear to still be an available dealer item. A couple of bucks. Use the part number and check Courtesy Nissan online...

Although I see you are in the UK shipping might be an issue for such an inexpensive item...

Thanks for that Charles, just ordered for shipping to my brother in Houston, lets see whether they actually arrive.

Best,

Steve

Just got a refund from Courtesy, seems they are NLA.

Any other sources?

Any one remaking them?

Hi Steve, Thats a pitty the deal fell through. OEM parts are getting harder to find and its only getting worse.

You can try Four ways engineering or MJP Eastern Auto. They might have some good used ones and they are closer to home. Dont know why I didnt think to mention it before:stupid:

To be quite honest I have never seen that part in person. I have worked on a number of Z's. Do they all have it?

I know someone who is going to want them if they belong there. Would need some to copy though...

Did you try "buynissanparts.com" use the part number

My car has them fitted, but they are getting a little crusty, I am looking for replacements.

Try Banzai Motorworks (Banzai Motorworks).

Fiche has that these are only on 280. N4400 from 11/75 only, then N4600 from 08/77, ie 78 only.

I've only ever seen them on a single '78 280.

nissanparts.cc has a listing for 66882-N4600 $1.97 each.

They are a Nissan dealer in Tecoma Washington that does on-line parts sales. I used to buy a few things from them a couple of years ago, quite good to deal with,

I'de definitely start with Courtesy Nissan first though.
