Hi I have a 2006 maxima and Im thinking about replacing my factory fog lights with HID lights but I have a problem... I don't know exactly where the fog lights are located on 2006 maxima...I was told its in the headlamp n then I heard its the side turn light... Can someone please help me please!

 

wait...what?

you have a car with foglights, but you don't know where the foglights are?????

youre kidding right?

go to your car and turn all the lights on. The top clear ones are your headlights....the orange ones are your parking lights, and the ones under the bumper are the fogs.

 

i am pretty sure you don't want to put HIDs in those turning lamps.

They aren't really fog lights.

 

it would sure let folks know of his intention to change lanes though

 

He has an '06. The fog lights are not in the bumper. Why talk trash if you're not even sure yourself?

OP: look at this picture. Your fog light is the smaller circular lens on the inside, closer to the grille:



It's a pretty tight fit to get back there, but definitely do-able. Easier than replacing the headlight, I say. I removed the washer fluid filler neck for the P/side, and the airbox for the D/side. Smooth sailing after that. Good luck with the hid project and come back and post some pictures!

 

this is the first vehicle I have heard of that has this setup...and I am not too arrogant to admit when I am wrong...

so to the OP - I'm sorry you bought a car that is weird :-) J/K Seems Nissan loved the idea so much they changed it back to normal for the 7th gen...jus' sayin'...

Seems like CRiME knows his stuff

 

They didn't even wait for the 7th gens they changed it back in 07 on the 6.5 gens.
