Well I put on my roof racks to get some measurements for a roof rack basket, going to use that for the kids bikes.. ( as we lack a decent tow bar) .

So been slack and left them on. . was at shops and noticed on my return 1 side was unscrewed from the front one. . both bolts. .

I bit suss in my view. . or am I paranoid. . I find it hard the screws just happened to come undone like that. .

It's hard enough to get them for M35 stags as it is, would hate to lose them. .

Torx safety bolts and lots of loctite lol

dont put too much faith in torx bolts. anyone can buy a full set of torx tools from supercheap for under $20. granted it does make it harder to steal them, but if they are a pro they will come prepared.dont forget, while your in there shopping. professional car thieves are doing their shopping in the carpark!!!

lol if they were pro theyd be stealing more than the roof racks

not nessessarily. ive seen cars that were broken into just to steal the stereo and very little to no damage done to door locks

Ever tried taking a stereo out of a M35 Stag, good luck. . lol

you've agreed entirely with my statement. lol i think to the public eyes. a stereo is more valuable than roof racks.

    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.

    • I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
