Questions Concerning The Headlights

....it's been a while since I've been on this site, glad to see some familiar people around...

Anyhow, I was wondering what are the sizes of the bulbs for our 6th gen Maxima? Headlight size, and fog light?


I was also wondering what the size of the high beam bulb is and if this bulb can be converted to with an HID kit?

I originally had the Xenon OEM lights and in a moment of stupidity changed them for some Phillips 6k....now I wanna go back to the factory Xenon kit and wanna do HIDs for the fog lights and if possible the high beam light...


Any and all info is greatly appreciated

First off, here's a link to find out what bulbs you would need for any type of car...period:

http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProd...lacementGuide/

The thing about our 6th gens is that we don't need separate bulbs for high beams. And yes, they can be converted to HID's. All you would have to do is drill a 1 inch hole into the plastic cap and then everything else will be plug and play. Just mount your ballasts under your headlights and your good.

As for the third paragraph of questions. You gotta be more clear because there isn't a factory Xenon kit. Only bulbs.

Sounds like you have OEM xenon headlights. The bulb size is D2S, and temperature is 4300k. I believe the OEM bulbs are Philips 85122. The fog light bulb size is H3.
