Nissan/Infiniti...do their lights fit our car?

I work at an infiniti dealership, and we were throwing out a ton of FX35 headlights. Anyways, I took one of them just for shits n giggles...but is there anything I can do with it? Hell, i'd be happy if the fogs fit into ours b/c i think nissans have a diff color temp.

maybe i can swap the projector? they had a recall because the highway safety commission or whatever said they were too bright lol

I wouldnt try using those projectors because it wouldnt give you a sharp cut off. If you are looking for sharp cut off and wide angle of visibility, go for the Euro Spec ZKW projectors. They are compatible to the TL housing. I BELIEVE the ZKW projectors comes in the BMW 330xi models. Or go to www.hidplanet.com they have tons of people selling those. ZKW also give you a good color shift like those Audis.

Good Luck

I haven't checked, but I would say the fog lamp bulbs are H1. I am sure you could get the HID bulb to fit. What HID bulb are they? Did you get the entire balast/bulb setup?

The FX has different lights than the 03-06 G35s right? Cause the lights on those gs suck.

FX has different lights than the 03-05'. The 06+ G35 Coupes and FX have the same projectors. They are pretty sweet actually. I've met up with my wife at night before when we both drove, and I compared the output of my G35 Coupe to her TL. They are pretty similar.

Thats true. I noticed the 06s have the glass ball type lights where the other G35s look like regular lights...

You're looking at good money on eBay... I would get as many of those as you can ebay those bitches... or atleast just sell the projectors.

Hell I might even buy one from you, I wonder if it would look good in the fog place of our headlights.

JJ,
I'd take a set of projectors and ballasts off your hands right now to do a retrofit on my wife's Odyssey.

Hook me up B.
