What kind of headlight are these?

Hi

I won a auction on ebay for this headlight but the guy didn't send me any good pics of them til after I won the auction. I know the headlight is not for a maxima so is it for the i30 or is it cefiro? Can somebody help me out?

I am not sure, but they look like the 4th gen Cefiro lights.

all the cefiro lights Ive seen have white housings not black, also the cefiros have more clear "corner lights" not blurry lense like in the pics

well, how about a link to the ebay auction? It's hard to tell from those pics. If I had to guess I would guess they are from a European A32. The A32 could be called a cefiro or maxima overseas. They probably fit the A32 I30, but can be made to fit the (4th gen) Maxima as well. I dunno about those mounting tabs though...got anymore pics?

I don't have any more pics. He only sent 2 of them. On ebay, he advertised it for a maxima. These are clearly not for a maxima so he falsely advertised on his auction.

Why would you buy something you haven't even seen? Especially off of e-bay.

I don't understand why people post it after they buy it. Why didn't you post it before you bid on it.

I may be wrong, but those are from a Subaru. I can't remember the model but I have the magazine at home. I'll double check when I get home

I think I have seen those on Euro cefiros/maximas as well. What did you pay for them? If the price was reasonable and we can determine they are cefrio i30 lights, I may be interested in them.

Sorry, I didn't ask if I made a wrong decision on buying the headlight, I know that already. I just wanted to know what headlight they are.

A32 Maxima QX/ Cefiro Headlights

Those are either EDM Maxima QX headlights or JDM Cefiro headlights..
Yes, they are One piece, but like the 95-97 Maxima.. they are glass not plastic..

But you should find out whether it's LHD or RHD headlights..
They will bolt-on to I30 96-99 & 95-99 Maxima (with minor modification)

GOOD LUCK

Yeah, they do look like headlamps from the previous generation of Legacy.
