01 QX4 Headlight Bulbs?

[dougdude9]

Hello!

I am needing to replace the headlight bulbs in my 2001 Infiniti QX4. I have no idea how to go about this.

First thing I need to know is what bulbs to buy. My current headlights look a little blueish... xenon's perhaps?... I know they are the factory bulbs. Where can I go to get bulbs for my car or what ones are recommended?

Are there 2 bulbs per headlight? So will I need to purchase 4 bulbs for the 2 headlights?... high and low beams?

Anyway, I'm sure you can tell I don't know much when it comes to replacing the lights. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,Doug

Well, I found out a little more. I went to sylvania.com and they have a thing where you can search your car and it will tell you what lights to get for the entire car.

Apparently the low beam headlamps are HID-D2R. The only thing the manual says is Xenon and it recommends to go to the dealer. Now I'm wondering if it is really necessary to go to the dealer to install these.

Anyone know where you can buy xenon lights? Do most autopart stores carry them?

I also need to replace a xenon low-beam. I found a replacement at NAPA Autoparts but do not know how to install it.
