Headlight question??
Headlight question??
Sup!! So my question is about my 09 maxima S. It's stock and my low beams are ok but I think they could be brighter. So that's when I started looking at A 6000k HID kit on the lows. BUT lol I just started looking at projection kit with HID bulb set up. Now my questions to the gurus out there.
1. Is one brighter and more reliable than the other.
2. Are my high beams projection? (They look like it that's why I ask)
3. If I find turn signal side mirrors is there a chance wires will be ran :-)? Or will I have to wire them and tap in to the turn signal from the head light.
Any info would be helpful!! Or if there's a thread or 2 already can you point me in the right direction

The higher in Kelvin, or color temperature, the less light you get. Stock color is around 4300K, it's pure white, the smallest hint of yellow. 5000K is pure white, and mostly pure white I think.
Also, our headlights are projectors for lowbeams only, so there is no need to get a "projection kit". However, there most likely is a few differences between the halogen protector and the HID projectors. Searching will help there. I don't remember what the differences are.

Are you trying to find mirrors that have the turn signals built in? I think you have to wire them yourself, there is no wire harness that is right there for instant plug and play.
Just about the headlights I recommend HID kits from www.THERETROFITSOURCE.com and I'd recommend staying with 4300k (OEM) and no higher than 5000k also you want an H11 kit and make sure you get and use the relay
