This is a genuine Nissan screw used to secure the stone guard on Nissan Patrol GQ models. It is designed to fasten the stone guard, which is located within the wheel arches or on the underbody, protecting the vehicle's paint and components from rocks, debris, and corrosion. Over time, these screws can become lost, stripped, or heavily corroded due to road exposure and maintenance, leading to a loose, rattling, or detached stone guard.
Replacing a missing or damaged screw is essential for keeping your stone guards firmly in place. Using a genuine Nissan screw ensures the correct thread pitch, head design, and material specification, preventing the issues commonly found with cheaper, generic hardware. An inferior screw can strip easily, rust prematurely, or have an incorrect fit, which risks the stone guard detaching and causing further damage to your vehicle or other road users.
Installation is a simple DIY job that can be completed with basic hand tools such as a screwdriver or a small socket set. While replacing the screws, it is a good opportunity to inspect the condition of the stone guard itself. You may also need the stone guard itself or any other clips and fasteners that are being replaced at the same time.
