I would like to know who did it...cause the shape and dimensions of the R32 are not as easy to match as Nizmolee decided to mold the R34 lights into his 4th gen...

it looks very nice...

but the R32 would just look odd IMHO...but that is just me.

I've seen a pair or two go on ebay for less then $100

The auction claimed they would be a direct fit to maximas...very intriguing...

My understanding was that the beam pattern is wrong due to being a right side drive car.

But, if it was off, you could just re-aim the headlights.....

The shape of the R32 will fit the 1st gen altima better,and the shape of the R34 would fit the 5th gen Max better.But those and any other light would fit on our 4th gen with some custom work and lots of $$$ off course.

I think he said something to the effect that the headlight sections would bolt in, same bolt pattern and spacing, etc... but the corner lights would not fit. Would probably take some doing to make those fit in.

Yeah that's what he told me too. Headlight would work but the corner lights need some work done to it.
