Probably not since when brandon was looking for spares there was a difference between the Coupe and the Sedan. I would deduce from that that the two are different, thus it would not work on your coupe.

Got no idea how the hybrid are same as ours. Maybe they're same as regular sedan? That I can see. From all I've heard coupe and sedan are def different though. Sorry Phenom!

talk about an impulse buy...

here's the truth about our headilghts...

1. Sedan headlights (2.5, 3.5, or hybrid) will not fit on the coupe!2. The headlights for the non-HID and HID equipped vehicles are NOT the same.... there's a different pattern to the relfective material inside the headlamps!3. Premium package vehicles should have come with projectors, but the designers at Nissan are douchebags, so we have to wait for projectors just like the G35's had to do for the first three years of their existence!

Easiest way to tell the fitment difference is to look at where the headlight meets the bumper at the bottom. The coupes have a curved bottom, while the sedans are straight. Also the coupe has flat tiers between the low-beam bulb and the turn signal above it, where the sedans are arched in a circular shape.
