07 lights

I want to change the yellow turn signal bulbs in my headlights to either white, or like a blueish color..I know I just have to buy the bulb that fits..But I was wondering, how easy is it to install? Do I have to take the bumper off? I have an 07..Also, is it ilegal, will I run into trouble with this..And what are your opinions, blue or white..I honestly think blue and white would look pretty cool...Thanks

I might get switch backs, blue to yellow or something..But does anyone know how I go about installing them? Do I need to remove the bumper or headlight?

not sure about the 07, but i installed my turns just like my fogs.... removing everything in the engine bay lol. well almost.

it's very tight, but doable. took out the air box and windshield reservoir.

Hey M35xkid, please advise where you installed the Ballast for the foglights... I have been thinking about doing this mod, but wasn't sure where is the best place to mount them... if you can please post some pics of the install....

Also, how diffiicult is it to replace the main HID Bulbs in an 07?

Thanks,

i am installing the hids on friday so i will post pictures after. but before my maxima i had a m35x and i put hids in the fogs and the install was very easy and i mounted the box to the inside of the fender never had a problem ..my car was under 5 feet of water and was totalled sitting in my driveway when the engine hydro locked.. turned my lights on and my hids fogs worked fine but my insurance company wouldnt lemme touch the car so i had to order a new pair

I believe it is Sylvania that makes a stealth bulb. They are blueish but blink yellow.

It is bulb type 4157

There is also

http://www.stealthauto.com/Departmen...lth-Bulbs.aspx. The 3157 is close but I am researching a proper replacement
