HID Question (factory)
#2
I know someone else did a retro fit for $700. if this is a aftermarket HID set up you will have to cut and wire the set up to the stock harness. the bulb should fit right in if its a correct size...

it is not really a retro fit... it is the actual 04 maxima HID headlight.... i really like the look of the HIDs, but i am on the fence with the price and the labor... not sure if i should spend the 700 to put the lights in...

i have one of those kits on my bike and thus far it is ok.. i have some trouble with one of the capsules faulting from time-to-time.. i have to turn one side on, wait until it fires up completely and then turn the other side on..
the setup that i mentioned before are teh actually headlights, capsules, and ballasts out of the SL.. but since i have never taken my lights out and compared them to the SL i do not know if these will be direct connect.. my guess is no and i will have to cut some wires to get them to work... the other thing is that these lights are $725 shipped.. which is good for what i am getting (OEM parts), but it is still a lot of money...
i am still on the fence...

I had halogen on my SE, did a mod with xenon projectors, ballasts and bulbs. Splicing of wires was needed... the Mod cost $350 for everything.
As for getting OEM HID headlamp with everything attached, I believe its a simple plug and play. someone did that, i have to find the thread.
whatever you do, dont get those japenese kits 6000k, 7000K, 800k and up... those make the 6th gen look too cheesy.
