Ive got a JDM 2003 model 350Z (as well as a couple of other Nissans) and I have been offered some facelift (post 2006) headlights at a good price.

Do you know if they will fit without modification - is it just a straight swap?? Cheers in advance for any answeration

Seriously, no-one has taken the later Bi-Xenon lights and put them on an earlier car??

Alot of people have. Truth is some people dont mind dishing out the 980 bux it costs for entire assembly. Multiply that by two and its almost 2 Grande.

my buddies zee.

Yeah, same problem here as well but seeing as I have to replace mine anyway I might as well go for the good ones

Straight swap in then - no additional ballasts or anything required in his case?? Sweet car by the way, definitely the best colour

As far as I know, the ballasts and bulbs come attached to the assembly itself, theres probably minimal playing around with the wiring since the previous one was a bit different. I changed my old lights to the newer model leds on the 06's and up. The only difference with swapping them was just leaving one of the wires unplugged to the fixture.
