I have driven side by side at night with a 00/01 Maxima with these projector headlights. The light output from them was terrible! It was virtually DARK in front of that Maxima, very scary!! I don't know what bulbs he was using, but even stock bulbs in those headlights should provide at least SOME light, which these did not!! I have driven by the same Maxima in the daytime, and they were the "projector headlights" that I've seen on eBay and Custom Maxima. Looks good in the daytime, but light output is less than desirable for night time. With really, REALLY good aftermarket PIAA bulbs, you might have better light output, but the light pattern is a mess from the pictures I've seen of the beam pattern.

For all those members who believe that over 95% of the 5gens are crazy for thinking that the projectors suck do a side by side comparison between the regular halogen headlamps and your projectors stock vs stock.

Also, let me make it clear, because people are retards and are to lazy to read my sig, I own a 2k1. All u 2k2-2k3 people shutup, we know ur lights are better and most of us cannot afford to put ur crap in our car, and if we can afford it why would we want to spend all that money for headlights. Does anyone know if someone tried putting HIDs in the projector?
Very well said.
