They stole my headlights!!! info on replacing

Got my notice about headlight theft from Nissan Monday & they stole my headlights tuesday.
Problem is I have a 2000.00 deductable & I dont want them stolen again.
I read in here that if I go to 2000-2001 headlights you get a Big gap Does anyone have any pics?? & if I go thay way what do I have to do to wire the lights like a 2000-2001 (mine is a 2002 se 6-spd)
& if it is not feasable anyone know a good place to get new/used headlights?

If you get the 2001 AE edition lights you have to get a 01 AE wiring harness and a 01 bumper to make everything look snug. You might want to go this route if you want to park your car with peace of mind. Instead of getting your HID"S replaced and stolen again.

G*d damn! Another one.. looks like nothing's changed in NJ while it seems to settle down a lil'bit in nyc area. I personally recommend you get the $ from the insurance and buy yourself a set of AE headlights and then buy a h.i.d kit. Yeah, its nowhere near as nice as the aggressive look as the 02/03 w/hid. Sorry to hear about your loss, best wishes.
