Re: Hyper Roof Rails with Lights
Tague,
Dreams not quite crushed as yet LOL
I want these hyper roof rails so bad, that I have decided to bite the bullet and do something crazy..hehehe
Am gonna order them and pay a shipping charge more than the actual cost of the rails themselves...yeah, I know, when I want something bad, I can't sleep at night until I get it. hahahaha
That is why I am an xtrailholic
Your dad can get them from the factory/Nissan in Japan if he has that sort of contacts

Re: Hyper Roof Rails with Lights
Tague,
I am still negotiating the shipping charge but in my case it'll be air-freight and might cost around $500AUD. (crazy)
I have no idea how much shipping from the US would cost. They have no xtrails there LOL
I don't have a part number for the hyper roof rails, but here is the part number for the genuine nissan cross bars to be used with these roof rails:
Part# KE730-8H600
If your dad gives the part number for the cross bars, they will be able to work-out the part number for the roof rails.
By the way, I won't be getting the genuine nissan cross bars cause they cost a fortune. I am trying to find the aftermarket ones, but first, I wanna get the roof rails themselves.
Good luck mate.
P.S. Hyper Roof Rails is the official Nissan product name for this part.

Re: Hyper Roof Rails with Lights
Rich,
Ski's don't weigh 19Kg like the gross weight of these roof rails packed in a 166cm long box.
The relatives or friends I would need for this would need to be damn close or completely crazy to post this stuff to me from overseas LOL
Talk about a cause for family or friendship break-ups LOL
Importing them through Nissan is out of the question as they'll be listed using the Nissan (balloon) price and I still have to pay shipping on them as well.
By the way (and I forgot to mention this to Tague) the listed price of these hyper roof rails at Nissan Japan is a very cheap $2000AUD
Now you know why I want to get them

Re: Hyper Roof Rails with Lights
Tague,
I thought I should give the local Nissan dealer a call and see if they have the cross bars for the hyper roof rails in stock (seeing that we do these xtrails on the road)
They did and the price is $294/set which is not bad I think.
The part number I mentioned above is correct for these cross bars.
Using your dad contacts, am sure you can get them cheaper with the discount.

Re: Hyper Roof Rails with Lights
Well mate, it seems when it comes to discounted employee pricing, the stock vanishes
I got my price from Nissan Rockdale (Sydney) and they said they have plenty in stock. In fact these are cheaper than the standard roof racks for the other models, because demand for them is pretty low, given the limited number of xtrails with hyper roof rails in Australia.
