Welcome to NICO!

Hi Im new to this so here are a few questionsfirst I want to hack my navi screen so my son can watch a DVD while I drivedoes anybody know someone who can do that in the L.A. area?

There are posts here on what to do ... please do a search. However, I am not sure if I recall any mention of somebody in the L.A. area who can do it. But, my memory is always faulty, so I hope some one chimes in!

xenon fog lights which are the best to match the factory headlights?

Assuming you are replacing halogens, then folks over here tend to favor Sylvania Silverstars ... a very white light and pretty bright. I forget the exact bulb that is needed, but can look it up if you want! The Silverstars are not xenon, but still very nice!

I want to change my rims to 21"x9" & Front 21"x10" Rear. The wheels that I have found have a bolt patern of 5x120 and the hub bore is 72.6 so can these rims fiton my car? or do i have to custom fit the wheels

Hmmm ... the above bolt pattern is wrong for a Nissan Infiniti (standard is 5 x 114.3mm) and the hub is certainly larger than the Nissan/Infiniti standard of 66.06m.

Changing the bolt pattern is a major endeavor and probably not worth the effort. You will need to find a better fit wheel with the right bolt pattern.

For the bore, you could live with the larger bore (since it will not have a problem going on the smaller 66.06mm hub that Nissan uses). But it will put a bit more stress on the lugs - no support in the center! Aligning and torqueing the lug nuts properly (to 85 ft-lbs) and keeping it torqued to the correct value will be essential.

What offset wheels are you looking at? Remember that the current-gen M has very high offset (47 and 50mm) for its 19x8 wheels, and you should get into the right range for wide wheels like what you are considering - too easy to it suspension pars or rub the fender. It would be good to find a friendly wheel/tire place and do a careful fitment test! Or call Tire Rack and ask for an expert who can confirm whether a given wheel size and offset will fit your car.

Finally, please do keep in mind that the correct load index tire in a 21" size is going to be limited in selection, as well as quite expensive! A load index of 94 or 95 (or higher) is important for these cars.

I am running 8k d2s headlight and 8k H11 Fog light and they match perfectly.3rdI want to change my rims to 21"x9" & Front 21"x10" Rear.

Won't fit by a long shot. Offset, bore and bolt pattern are way off.
