Hey im new to this forum and i've just got a simple question that i hope you guys can answer...

i have a 08 nissan altima 2.5s it doesnt have HIDs but i want to put some in.i read around this forum and saw somewhere that said i can buy a conversion kit with the H11 bulbs and install it directly into my headlights. but my headlights are the reflective ones. do i have to get the OEM Xenon Headlights from nissan? or would it be possible to install the conversion kit directly into my current stock headlights?? i've read alot of different opinions and im fairly confused so i hope you guys can help lol...

No need to buy headlights. Just use the OEM ones and buy the HID kit. You can get a real nice DIY on how to replace it in the Interior/Exterior section.

really? wouldnt it cause light to go everywhere on the road and be too bright? i dont wana get pulled over haha. and wouldnt the heat from the HID bulbs burn the inside of my headlight since it wasnt made for it?? btw i have the canadian 08 altima if that even makes a difference lol.
