Headlamps-- Skyline R32 conversion

I'm trying to put Skyline R32 front headlamps on my
Nissan Maxima 1999--- anyone ever done this before?

I took it to the body shop this afternoon-
guy qouted me 4 hours of labor at $65 an hour-- ouch
and he couldn't promise the lights would be "aimed" correctly

Anyone got any ideas?
Maybe I could do some of it myself??
Instructions... etc.
Thx

A few peeps have done them. IMO it looks alright. Look through some threads around the 8-15 page mark.

if your paying cash they had damn well better be aimed correctly. imo i'd rather have custom made hid proj. installed. probably cost about the same also. how much were the headlights?

"aiming"
