Just go into the normal sedan foruma nd search for the HID threads.

As for fogs, look for FLEA on nissanclub.com, he can get oems for half the price as the stealership. Wiring is an easy as...well, pie.

I ran mine on a seperate circuit since Hybrid's aren't prewired for fogs.

Watch what you put in your fogs and high beams - some cops don't like HID's there because of the brightness issues....

i went with the xenonmatch plus bulbs..they are H11 like the stock harnesses.

HIDS will provide more light but the glare in these housings would draw alot of atention from angry drivers and cops.

Some people make glare shields for their HIDs or just aimed them down a little.
