Swapping I35 Headlights and Taillights on 2001 I30?

Has anyone tried this before? I justpurchased a 2001 I30 and I am thinking about installing 2k2-2k3 I35 Headlights and taillights on it. I might have to do the trunk and hood conversion not sure though.

What aftermarket headlight options we have for 2k1 I30s?

The headlights will swap with no modification especially if you have factory HID. Not sure about the tail lights, but they look like they SHOULD fit.

Aftermarket headlights... Ive seen some chromed or blacked-out angel eyes on ebay, but thats about it.

Love your modding style man! Looks like I am going to be ordering the I35 Grill along with some other goodies. Your cleared out lights look great but I still go with the I35 swap

Is the 01 I30 really a 5spd or are you just planning on doing a swap?

Thanks for the compliment. I love what you did with the Max and cant wait to see what you do with your new Infin.

Let me know how the 5 speed swap goes. Ive wanted to do this, but to be honest, the install kinda scares me. That and I dont have the time or money to do it right now.

Keep us updated

Wanna try a pair of A33 Cefiro headlights? Do you currently have HID or Non-HID headlights?

I also have a pair of A33 Cefiro Tailights (looks similar to I35 Tailights)
And Autech Meshed Cefiro A33 Grille if you are interested.

I can get the all Clear/Chrome A33 Cefiro Headlights (or Bronze housing), or Smoked (black) A33 Cefiro headlight housing w/o HID's. Email me for more information!

I was under the impression that the Cefiro tails would require bumper replacement in order to fit correctly. This is what I was told when I was looking for a set.

I thought the headlights were the same on the I30/35. They look exactly the same to me, its just the grill that is different I thought.
