Hi...

I have a 95 se and I notice one of my headlights is turning an ugly yellow, this is obviously really ugly and even if it wasn't yellow they dont really match the diamond cut clears at all...

Where can I get some replacements? How much do these cost?

And I'm pretty new at this so how do they lights come off..

thanks

I have no idea why they are turning yellow but when you replace it get a 97+ light. They look much better. But then you would have to replace the other side too so they would match.

if you use the 97-99 headlights the will run you more money. you are also gonna have t update your grill with a 97-99 as well. you might just be better off changing the originals. i know a company caled veng which produces after market parts for cars. i used them on my old 97 max for 3/4 of a nose repair the parts were perfect they lined up great and were substantialy cheaper than oem nissan. as for you 95 head lights they run 90 a piece as opposed to 120 for the 97 and up..good luck

From what I've gathered here on the forum the 97-99 headlights will fit a 96-96 without having to change the grill. Or at least I thought!
As for the prices you can get them cheaper then 120. Try here:

http://www.carlamps.com/
Just to name a few.
