the e36 ights require some modification to fit. it's not too hard though.
there's no euro or altezza tailights for the 3rd gen maxima. it's a blessing not a curse. the only thing you can go to alter the tailights is; tint them, remove orange turn signal lense, or just do a tailight swap.

to do the E36 conversion is fairly simple. took me 3hrs. to do. as for the taillights i would agree with -shock211- just do mod i did and some others did to their taillights which u can see it on my cardomain site on the last page for the turnsignals and reverse lights but u will need the '92-'94 GXE or SE tails to do this mod. i would take the SE tails over the GXE tails cuz they r tinted and don't have the chrome trim.
The E36's need custom fitting as everyone has said. If you get the U.S. spec ones, they will fit in easier, and you can reuse the stock headlight bracket. These have the plastic light housing cover. The euro spec e36's will take alot more work (mine took me ~24 hours), as they are much bigger and require more cutting. You cannot use the factory bracket to mount them. The advantages to using this setup is that they are bigger (no gaps), have a glass housing, and they have greater light output.
