I was wondering if anyone knows if the HID lights out of an '02 or '03 would fit in a 2001 maxima. And if so what must come with the light, burner, casing, etc?

 

The HIDs for the '02 and '03 Maxima will fit into the '00 and '01. However, rewiring needs to be done.

You can request a write-up from BigDogJonx. His webpage is at:

Due to the HID theft problem with the Maxima, write-ups tend to be given out on a prove-you-purchased-the-HIDs-legitimately basis, so check with the people who did the write-ups for more info.

If that's too much trouble, have you thought of just replacing your existing headlight bulbs with Sylvania Silverstars? $50.00 or less for a pair to give a HID-like brightness. Just a thought.

Good luck. Peace.

 

i think the newer headlights themselves look better than the old ones. not just the fact that their brighter.

 

New lights are A LOT more aggressive lookin

 

amen to that

 

Not only will it cost an arm and a leg to get, you have to worry about getting them ripped off from low-life losers. Consider getting a Catz-HID kit or some equivalent (with a dual beam), which will cost around 500-600 dollars. Then you will have true HID's and I am sick of changing burned out bulbs all the time. I have to admit though that the 2002 headlamps look sweet and they are a perfect fit.
