A used door hinge that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
The Pathfinder sold in the UK spanned several distinct generations: the first generation (R50) ran from roughly 1997 to 2004, the second generation (R51) ran from 2005 to 2014, and the third generation (R52) ran from 2013 to 2017, so hinges from one generation will not cross over to another as the door frames and apertures differ. If your vehicle sits near a boundary — for example an early R51 or a late R51 close to the R52 overlap — confirm the exact generation against your registration with the breaker before ordering. Always specify your generation to the breaker to avoid being sent a non-fitting part.
Yes, the Pathfinder has been sold exclusively as a five-door SUV in the UK across all generations, so door count is not a variable you need to worry about here — all UK Pathfinders share the same five-door layout. What does matter is which door the hinge is from, so make sure you specify whether you need a front or rear door hinge when contacting a breaker.
Yes, this is one of the most important things to get right — door hinges are side-specific and a nearside (NS, passenger/left) hinge will not swap with an offside (OS, driver/right) hinge. When searching or contacting a breaker, always state NS or OS clearly, as well as whether it is the front or rear door hinge you need.
Trim level does not affect door hinge fitment on the Pathfinder — the hinge is part of the body structure and is the same across trim grades within the same generation. You may find cosmetic differences such as paint finish between donor vehicles, but the hinge itself is not trim-dependent, so focus on matching generation and side rather than trim level.
The R51 Pathfinder received a facelift around 2010 with updates to the front end and interior, but whether the door hinges themselves changed across that facelift boundary is not something that can be stated with certainty. To be safe, confirm with the breaker that the donor vehicle's registration and build date match your own, as subtle engineering changes can sometimes affect hinge bolt patterns or profiles even within the same generation.
Colour is purely a preference and does not affect fitment for a door hinge — the hinge itself is a structural metal component that is not colour-matched in the way a door skin or panel would be. Focus on getting the correct generation, side (NS or OS), and door position (front or rear), and any surface finish differences are irrelevant to whether it will fit.
