Hey Guys and Gals, I'm new to the Suzuki family (2010 RMZ4 Red) and was searching for accessories. Do the Nissan Frontier Accessories fit the Suzuki?
I found an EBay store that offers 20% off all Equator Accessories that seems to be pretty good but it doesn't have as many items as Nissan offers for the Frontier. Any Thoughts? |

Accessories that don't involve obvious differences (front end, say like headlights) should all fit - identical trucks otherwise, made in same factory. Will you post link to equator accessories?

The only real differences between the two trucks are the grille, tailgate, and trim items (and the warranty, of course ).A lot of us have used Nissan as a source for parts/accesories that Suzuki doesn't offer. (Nav housing for Premium Extended cab trucks, for example). Be forewarned that you may have more recourse with a Suzuki dealer regarding returns. Since you can't provide the Nissan dealer with a VIN, they have no way to confirm parts will fit your particular trim level, and parts may be non-returnable. Just make sure to do your homework, find the Frontier model that matches yours the closest (I'd guess the PRO4X or LE in your case), and go from there.

Welcome to the forum EQMAN. It's good to see another Equator fan.
As mentioned by Obtuse there are some differences. Some Frontier tailgate edge protectors have a notched out section for the higher molding on their tailgate that the Equator doesn't have. So far Suzuki is not offering one, or bed rail caps, for the Equator, even though some trucks had them as OEM equipment. There are also some Nissan dealers that are very competitive with their parts pricing, so it pays to check around. You'll see some of them mentioned in the forum posts. How do you like your truck so far? |

I looked into bed rail caps for my truck. Managed to find (I think) the unique to Suzuki tailgate cover through a Suzuki dealer website (part #14):

There are a few Nissan dealers that make these kinds of upgrades much easier by packaging the correct parts...for Suzuki, it seems to take a bit more digging.

Good find Obtuse! Thanks for the info. It'll be a good reference to keep. Wish I had this earlier. The dealers in my area were no help with this.

What I have found almost everything matches. I had an 08 frontier and I pulled just about everything off. It all went back on but the T-Bra. It had too much of a gap between the hood and the bra. But the nerf bars, Tonneau, CAI, TBS, and seat covers all swapped.I did buy the Suzuki bra. Now I am waiting on some to provide a programmer. Hypertech told me I would be notified, doubt it. I e-mailed Superchips and no response.
