Headlight

so i was wondering is there any way to custom the 07 headlight without opening it. i saw some of the members how they did it, (dee.signs) it looks really cool but dont have time to do all that. plus i dont have another pair to work on. i was looking at this
just wanna know is there any way you can do this without messing up the headlight. p.s red looks hot!!!

red can also get you a misdemeanor for impersonating a cop.

red will get you in court for impersonating a cop.... or causing an accident because people expect red to be the back not the front

True but if you have them wired up to a seperate switch and aren't driving around with them on (like an idiot), you should be fine.

If your corner lights are amber or if you've converted them to white LEDs, you can always do amber or white demon eyes instead of red and tap them to the corner lights so they act as a DRL. I always liked that idea but I'm not giving up my red demon eyes in my quad R34 retro lol

If you have OEM HID's, dependent on how you plan on performing the demon eye mod, you CAN do it without baking open the headlights. For 04-08 Maximas, the HID projector can be pulled out through the back opening. Once the projectors are out, you can insert a strip of low-profile LED's around the lens holder right behind the projector lens.

Oh, if you have halogen projectors then you'll HAVE to bake them open.
