PM SYCEFIRO he has them on his car, but his is/was a Maxima. Cefiro headlights are plug n play for the I30's right?

Where can you get them?

Are those available for 98 Max? Is there any modification of the body involved or is it just a simple swap? And where can you get those? And how much? Thanks!

I30 headlights are differently shaped so YES bodywork modification would be involved to fit these.

Because they make body kits for you instead. Yes there are serious body modifications to fit Cefiro head lights into a Maxima.
are they PNP? Kind of. You have to convert to a different light harness. I think H4. I'll tell you in 2 weeks when I install mine

Re: Need help installing cefiro headlights

The Cefiro headlights are very easy to install. The only thing that you will be nedding to get is a H-4 wiring harness. You can get one from a junkyard from any old car that had H-4 bulbs. By the way, That guy's pic of the I30 in your sig lives here in Hawaii too.

What did they cost you? Did they end up being plug and play on your i30? I guess you needed h4 harnesses, anything else? Give me the low down! I am fly ing to az to pick up my 96 i30 5spd i am buying, and i can't stand the headlights!

I paid 400 shipped for my headlights. Nis-knacks sells them for like 350 w/out shipping, but there out, and are hard to get in touch with. Sycefiro is a great guy to deal with, he posted here and you can see the type grill and headlights that i bought on his car pic. His car is a maxima w/ I30 front. Ill post some pics 4 yall with my grill and headlights on this weekend!

So are 9003 and H4 plugs compatible? I looked at the all the above cars in a sylvania manual and not one of them is indicated as an H4. Infact thumbing through the whole application guide, I didn't see an H4 listed.
