Hey guys! I gotta 03 G35 sedan with some VERY bad looking headlights. I called Infiniti about getting some replacement housings and they quoted me OVER $850.00!!! No thanks! SO I got on ebay and found some nice looking kits for $200.00, I like this price but they do not come with the Xenon of course- I do no want to replace the bi-xenons because they work great! I just want to replace the housing! Anyone know where I can get just a good OEM looking housing for this baby, where I can keep my Bi-xenons?

Thanks so much if anyone can help me out here!!!!

You don't have bi-xenons...they are just xenons.

I know of people that have bought the ebay versions and just swapped the plastic cover.

Chances are that you can get rid of the oxidation without having to buy new headlights though.

^^^ Nice, thanks. I'll take it to this place near me that says they buff them out and what not. I'm just skeptical because I want it to look nice.

So. you think it would work to buy some non-xenon halogen housings off ebay and just pop my xenons in them? That sounds good. These are the ones I found on ebay:

You would be replacing the plastic on the headlight, not inserting the xenon housing into the new headlight.

Its not that difficult. Just have to take your time.

GREAT! Thanks. I will post some befores and afters of it! I may let that place buff it monday depending on the price- then order those ebay lights and slap them on there if it looks like poop after the buffing.

If it's the external part of the lens that is hazed up you can try the Meguires headlight restoration kit.....

very fine sand paper and then buff it out and wax it. costs about 5 dollars takes about 20 mins.
