New headlight idea

i was thinking and i thought of something new for our headlights. Some dude came up with making bi-xenon headlights for his car.

I was thinking of instead of making one projector, why not make two. Infiniti J30 had 2 projectors in their headlight assembly (low and high beam). Why not take apart a j30 headlight and put the projectors from that into our maxima and have angel eyes just like the 5 series(2 instead of one eye)

What do you guys think?

people have thought of it, and geo1317 made his own (single projector) style. the idea has been tossed around, and i would tell you to search but...eh. he even made some instructions
http://maxima.cardomain.com/memberpage/202250/6, i dont think anyone with a 4th gen has them, but i know for a fact several 3rd gen guys have them (one guy has sick dual beam m3 projectors) I think you only need one beam, and they would be easier to make single bulb

nice as hell.......is theer any way we can get a 194 light into our headlights? Like on the 350's and alot of the newer cars they ahve 1 194 in each light, and it looks like a dim headlight. they also call the city lights. that would be fly as hell.

if you had the new headlight housing, fitting in a 194 bulb would not be hard. And if you're a ricer, you could get different color bulbs too

well, its not too hard...but there is no set of instructions or anyone guiding you along. takes a lot of mechanical ingenuity mainly
