So, I'm thinking about upgrading the headlights in my new 09 Murano. Does anyone have any experience with this? Here is what I am thinking about

1) Upgrading to HID lights, which I think would require new ballast and such... A) Is this something I would need done by a Nissan dealer B) Is this something I can get done by like a Pep Boys or local Mechanic C) Is this something I can do myself because it really isn't that hard or time consuming2) The cost of doing this would be around A) the parts B) the labor

Thanks for your input

Okay, this is from my past experience... The dealer will probably not install the HID head lamps for if it requires any additional wiring but if all it takes is a new assembly and the bulbs then go for it.

I had retro fitted my Acura Integra a few years back with HID's I ran a search for the proper bulb type which would be H11 in our cars. they come in a PLUG N Play kit, so you take your old bulb out, but the new one in and if its a good kit just plug the electronic balist into your old light socket and mount the box somewhere in the engine bay and that's it. This is the route i've been looking at.

OOO pricing for OEM NISSAN everthing to do it your prob looking at 1500, for DIY kit no more than 300
