Quick question... I'm looking to get my dad some new headlights for his 07 Versa.. the plain old yellow ones jsut won't do. I'm looking for white or blue.. my question is, what type of bulbs does the Versa have? I looked in his manual real quick, it says 12v/55w H2 on one place and H4 on another... which one is it because they're totally different! Also, any fog lights made for the Versa yet?

Thanks everyone!!

The lights on the V are H4's. You can also use 9003's and HB2's, they are all the same thing. If you're trying to get more light, stay away from blue coated or blue glass bulbs. Manufacturers claim that the blue tint will increase the amount of light or make the light whiter, but most times this washes out the light and you get less. A clear bulb will provide the most amount of light. Silverstar Ultra's will get you more light than stock (even though it's blue glass) and are really weasy to find, but others will get you more. Philips Vision Plus will get you about 50% more light than stock and GE Megalight will get you 60% over stock. Both are pretty good when it comes to issues with glare. Philips has a new light X-treme Power which will give you 80% over stock, but there may be some glare problems because of the excessive amount of light. It's the closest thing to HID which is about 100% - 120% over stock halogens.

Fog lamps for the V should be here soon. They are supposed to be released when the Sports package comes out next month.
