Thanks

 

Idk if you can swap the blast, in all honesty, idk why you would. And D2R fit? Nice.

 

Im going to be doing this tommorow, I just hope I can use the ramps to make it easier.

 

Eh no need for ramps lol, it honesty took
Me like 2 minutes on each side... Finding a place to mount then was a pain but itll be easy

 

so I finally got them on the phone, and it turns out they got my email and had already done an invoice to send me the connector caps for the harness. should be shipped out tomorrow and received sat or Mon. I didn't even have to fuss to get them. I may just continue using them... lol

 

i purchased these led turn signals from ijdmtoy https://store.ijdmtoy.com/ProductDet...56_3157_SKU204
and for some reason they keep blowing the fuse... if i instlal a load ressitor will it stop the fuse from blowing?

 

Does anyone know how to adjust the aim of the low beams?

 

So i got the H11 10k Hid kit for my fogs today. Got them from the Ijdm toy store. Guna go pick up a friend and install them in a while. Wish us luck, ive been reading up and it looks like were going underneath the car. I might take pics of the install. Hope we can do it up right

 

Mounting the balast was the hard part. Trust me.

 

Well i lagged it on the putting on the fog lights but i did it today. It was a little difficult @ first but i knew i could do it. Mounting the ballast was difficult and so was putting in the bulb back in snug. Came out looking great but now i think my headlights need to match.

Stock Fog light Vs 10k Hid Fogs


It got dark out real quick lol

 

I'm assuming your headlights arent HID's? Weird thing is My Headlights arent HID's either but mine def dont have that bad of a yellow tint on them...

 

Yeah i have no Hids on the headlights. Its a SV and i agree that they are yellow. I might change em out to 6k but we shall see how these look. I have not driven around @ night either so i'll see how my vision is with them.

 

Was wondering where did you all mount the ballasts for the low beams? And what did you use to mount them?

 

finally got everything installed!!!!

 

Where did you get yours from and I am guessing 6000k? Also where did you mount the ballasts?

 

ddmtuning.com. and there's a little bar just below the lights where I mounted them.

 

sounds good thanks yeah I'll be doing this once it gets warmer out up here in PA. I'm so ready to move south haha I hate the cold and other reasons up here haha.

 

yea, i dont know how i would like it up north. that whole changing tires for winter is crazy weird for me. lol

 

I just hate the cold and all that

 

Okay I got my Maxima 3.5 SV used so I am not sure if I have xenon/ HIDs how can I tell if I do bc the reason I ask is I dont feel like my low beam light is the yellow tinge at all as I have seen before... thanks for your help

 

The only model That don't come with xenon headlight are the S model if am not mistaken

 

Actually is a part of the limited package on the S models for 2012.

 

I thought that you had to have the Premium or Sport package to have them that is why I am questioning this. I feel like a moron asking it... If I cant figure this out I'll just call up a Nissan dealer and give them the VIN to see

 

If it is a base SV (not Premium or Sport) more than likely it does not have xenon headlights.

 

Yea I know the 2012 S model limited edition comes with xenon headlights. I was referring to 09-11 model

 

Yeah that is my understanding it's just the way they look to me is whiter than yellow even standing away from them and looking at them... thats my wonder. I test drove one that was premium package but didnt really like the color it was red and that one had xenons but they were pretty blue output wise

 

The 09-11 Maxima's that have HID's are SV models with Sport, Premium, or Technology packages. HID's were not an option for the S model for those years

 

A lot of people mount them on the bar near the fenders but I made a custom bracket for mine and mounted them under the headlights where the factory ballast would go. I made sure it looked clean and factory since my Max is still under warranty.

 

guys, can anyone tell me how to change the fog light please ? I would like to change my halogen to match the hid... it might have discussed but there are almost 19 pages in this thread.. any help is appreciated

 

Got ya sounds good... DId you happen to install a Relay when you did it?

 

I want all the lights on the front of my car to look like my xenon low beams. So if i want any kind of xenon white blue purple whatever light for my HIGH beams and FOGLAMPS do i just need bulbs or do i need a whole conversion kit type of thing?

 

SPAM^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^

 

Wondering if installing HIDs in my lows if I have to drill through anything...

 

I've included a couple of pics to show the difference between HID...
....the 1st pic shows a standard Halogen illumination on the left with the brighter HID on the right. Bulb was ~ 4300K kit choice.
The 2nd pic has both MTEC HID bulbs in place. The MTEC kit was 100% plug and play and designed for MBs with an integral resistor in their digital ballast,..and I can always go back to the OE halogen if I had not been satisfied. (no dash warnings with this kit)

Maybe it's a question of age and diminished night vision, but I prefer the better bright light when night driving. Others here have stated that they prefer a less white softer night lighting. At the dinner table I prefer a soft light,..but on the road at night, I love the extra and bright illumination offered by the HIDs.

Without the standard OE halogens, I found that I was looking more to the right and left and straining to see if their was an animal waiting to jump out in front of us. It happens quite a bit up here. The HID illuminates further and brighter into the ditches and much brighter on the road also. I now spend more time looking down the road knowing that I have the sides better illuminated and therefore less time trying to see if I missed something. I find it a big asset for my rural driving,.. but less important for urban use.

 

 

Everyone chooses HID over halogen..

 

 

I don't see any pics, but yea, HID's with projectors are a huge difference over halogens. I wouldn't buy a car without em.

 

really no way

 

i chose to tape maglites to the side of my car for extra light at night....no need for the extra cost of HID or Halogen.
