Does anyone know if this is possible? They're on all the Honda's and 97-00 maxima's. How about Projector headlights? HID sucks in 3rd gens because of the beam pattern. Anyone with any info?

Contact APC(or any other reputable appearance mod comp.)........

then get a lot of people who like those sort of lights to continually email APC(tastefully though, don't overflow them). Next if they do, you'll need a guinea pig seeing as how APC has never made any real "body fitting" appearance mods for a 3rd gen! then wallah, you'll look like a Civic!!(just joking) <b>just remeber QUANTITY of requests and actual buyers will play a BIG part in the actual mass production!!!!</b> as for me I try not to look anything like a HONDA or 4th gen!!! Euro tails and headlights are <b>their style</b>, keepin' the good 'ole 3rd gen look is fine with me!!!

If you want euro headlights why not just get BMW headlights, some people have done it and said that they are just about the right size and shape.

need4power has them and a couple of others, check out this thread

they dont look good. they are tinted and they dont line up with the corner lenses right. a waste of $500 if you ask me. id rather go out and buy a set for $200 that just slap right in and look awsome.

Yuh know i was just looking at a picture of the Cefiro lights, and they look about the right size. Only problem areas that i could see is the grill meeting the light, there at a slight angle. And has they wrap around the fender.
Other than that they look like they might actually fit, maybe a custom grill. Then hopefully the harness could be wired to work right and what not.
alot more people on here know more about this crap then me so if you wanna look, check out this guys I30 with Cefiro lights.
