Converting my 95 headlights to 97-99

One thing i have always hated about the looks of my front end is how i have the "frosted" headlights because i have a '95-96 maxima vs. how the '97-99's have the clear "projection" type headlights. I was wondering if i could go and buy the clear '97-99 headlights and install them on my '95 Max with no real problems? Help me out...if any of you have actually done this or know of someone who did this and was succsessful or not- please write back-any help is appreciated. Thanks Alot,

Sincerely,
Maxima Black...a.k.a. Tony Sav

I am pretty sure everything bolt right on, nothing need to be change. Just take off your orignal Headlights and put the 97-99 one in thats it.

Check out my homepage; I have the lamp conversion on my 95. They look SO much better! Good luck on the swap.

Its too easy to do. Not only does it look better, but the beam pattern is much improved. Worth every penny!

If you mean headlights, then a junk yard should be the cheapest place or you can order new ones online, but it'll be A LOT!!!
