great job mate thank you for taking the time to upload

Was it difficult to remove and reinstall the boot release button/switch? That’s the part I’m trying to replace on my J11 model as the rubber has torn. Trying to replace it without removing the entire boot handle as how you would when removing the license plate lights.

Thanks for the tutorial. Since the parts links don't work anymore, did you get "Boot Handle Clip Repair Kit for Nissan Qashqai 2006-2013" from the X8R website?

[@DIY-Dalton]

Hello! Apologies about that, So the ones I got were just off eBay, I found a seller that was selling them half the price of the X8R ones but they are exactly the same. They just done come with the acetone.

Quick question, there's a connector for the keyless entry/unlock button on left side that kind of sits in the bracket for one of the clips - what did you do about that, since the repair kit doesn't seem to allow for it?

[@DIY-Dalton]

You are right, there is no bracket for this connector on the repair kit, I left mine loose and just tucked it in the gap before I bolted down the hand, you can tape it in place as well,

Is this repairable kit fit for all Casquai models? I have 2012 and happen exactly the same. If so, where can I get this?

[@DIY-Dalton]

Yes this is available for all qashqai models, easiest place to get them would be ebay

Where did you get those two glue on brackets? The audio on this vid is terrible so I couldn't hear. Please ditch the music and bass in future. Great idea though and just what I was looking for.

[@DIY-Dalton]

Thanks for the feedback, I got the brackets from eBay, the listing I used is no longer active but these are the same thing. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TAILGATE-BOOT-LID-HANDLE-COVER-REPAIR-CLIPS-SET-FOR-NISSAN-QASHQAI-2007-2013-J10-/224937001589?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

Benim qashqai de o kısımda çok kötü yapıştırıcı ve köpük izi var. Hep bunu neden yaptıklarını düşünürdüm. Simdi anladım ki tırnaklari zamanla kırılan bir parça ve ondan dolayı yapıştırmışlar. O kısım hep tutkal izi..

Где взять эти детали?

[@DIY-Dalton]

Hi you can get them off eBay,

На AliExpress

Why acetone, no glue? Isn't acetone like alcohol

[@DIY-Dalton]

Hello, Acetone should make for a stronger bond as it melts the plastic, which fuses it together, kind of like welding for plastic! You can use any nail varnish remover as that has acetone in it

Why do people put music on videos ? It overpowers the speach.

[@DIY-Dalton]

Yeah it does a bit, I did it for a more enjoyable watch, but as my first video I was still learning
