These are not projector style headlights. However the beam pattern is quite superior to the stock 9004 setup, and will provide better lighting quality. When I purchase these from Sycefiro, they came with some bulbs, but not all. Headlights themselves use H4 bulbs (was provided), the city lights are 194's(was provided), and the corner lanterns are the 1156/1157 style(not provided). We bought different H4's anyway (PIAA Xtreme Force H4's). Here is what they looked like on the car I bought them for (iansw car):

P.S. In my sig I have the install instruction link. More pics can also be found HERE!

Are these OEM or aftermarket?

I believe they are made in the same plant as the OEM ones....so I would probably say yes.

Im interested in these but only if we can get 10+ people. Count me in for now, i guess.

Do they look smoked like that or were they tinted. i know the housing is supposed to be black, but they look pretty dark where its supposed to be clear.

It is just the lighting. It's too tough to take good pictures of them in the day because of the contrast of the housing to the reflection area.

i read the write up man but I was wondering does it look flush after the project or like, do you see a bunch of weatherstripping on some sides to account for the difference between the usdm and jdm lights.

Also, is it necessary to cut into the frame?

oem, does it matter????

any way you look at it you have to modify them to fit n your max

and i know its a stupid question but outside of fit is there a difference between aftermarket and oem

yes, it does matter to an extent. both OEM and non-OEM lights look the same, and fit the same. its the light beam/quality that matters. the OEM lights obviously produce better light.

so are these OEM or not?

I like the way they look, well, in the pictres at least with the darker shade. They look tinted and tinted is hot! I just dont want to get pulled over really. If these are OEM you can prove to an officer with some kind of document or by showing the nissan logo somehow and get out of a huge ticket.

Do these use the same harnesses for the turn signal bulbs?

OEM Nissan lights provide a better beam pattern, not all aftermarket lights are made the same. I've seen aftermarket Cefiro lights that produce a pretty gross beam pattern
pics of beam pattern would help

I spoke to MaxMojo, he said that he can't include the OEM clears with this deal only JDM Smoked ones, payments can be made by Credit Card or Checks but might take longer, prefers paypal to: sales@paradox-systems.com, says as soon as the 10 orders are made he will start shipping out...need 1 more definite!
