Watch the Groupbuy forums, they have groupguys going every couple months or so. I know sycefiro can get them, and liuspeed also, they are both maxima.org members, just look up the names and pm them. Maxmojo sells them also at his paradox-systems.com website I believe, probably the cheapest. I think he is doing a groupbuy in march, whenever he gets the next shipment of them in.

www.redlinemax.com always has them. Pretty fair priced and they are awesome to work with. Also, paradoxsystems.com has them. Cefiros rule as far as looks go for headlights.

I got mine thru redlinemax.com. They work and look great. Be aware that there are knockoffs out there. The ones I got from relinemax and OEM from a RHD country (Taiwan I believe) so you know you are getting top quality.

There's something I still dont understand, do these head lamps come with the wire harness. I'm guessing these use HIDs? If they do come with the wireharness for the HIDs what else is left to purchase to make the head lights work other than the bulbs.

Mine came with wireing harnesses for ALL the light bulbs and included the bulbs. i got mine from Paraodx-systems.com They have the oem Cefiro one pice headlights there. I have heard some guys buying them from other places and NOT receiving the wireing harnesses. These are NOT HID lights in here, but you will have to cut your headlight wireing harness and get an H3 wireing harness. Is it an H3? i cant remember, but you will need to cut your original wireing harness and install another kind for the Cefiros to work.
hope that info helped.

wiring is not a problem once you get down to it.....the corners just modify your stock harness to fit, just takes a bit of dremeling
the headlights, match black to black and the appropriate other colored wires just follow the order they were in on your stock 9004 harness

What?... what do I need to dremel? I have to dremel the Cefiro head lamps? See that something I dont want to do... retro fit, cuz I know I'll do a sloppy job and ruin anything that I had to retro fit. So I'd much rather save money and keep the stock look

illmortal: listen buddy, it's not hard to do. In fact, what I did, was instead of dremmeling the stock socket, I used my saudering gun to melt a notch into the Cefiro socket hole to fit the factory nubs on the socket. Did that make sense? IM me and I can explain more if you like. No worries though, you can not mess this up as long as you have a brain in your head and eyes.
You will do fine!

Is this how reliable their service is too ?Yep we had some problems with our hosting site in the changeover, however notice there is a totally new e-store up now. We are working on the site right now and are adding new products to the store as I type this.
The Cefiro Lights are out of stock right now but are on there way here. We are taking backorders now. As soon as they reach the country you can be the first to have your set. So you order now!!

So the wire harness that comes with the Cefiros only has sockets for the head lamps... not the corners? If that's the way it is...then now I better understand how the housing comes. Just for knowledge though, what sockets are normally supposed to fit into the corners... if they're H3s or H4s that'd be sweet to have in the corners!

They come with Socket/Harness from Nissan which is JDM and not the same as the US model. Most of people here including myself, either make the hole bigger or trim off the little piece off your OEM socket.
Don't even think about putting H-3 or H-4 or any other High wattage bulbs in there.. too many people tried that.. and melted the headlight. Any of us selling the headlight housing will NOT be responsible if you melt your housing. That location is meant for Signal light only which is a very small wattage bulb, plus that it's not on constantly. So if you have H-3 or H-4 in there.. you will definitely melt it. Don't ask me how I know this

I know the Cefiro headlights seem to be the most popular ones, I was wondering if there are any other sorts of headlights that can be used to replace the stock ones on a 1997 I 30. I am getting pretty sick of my dull stock headlights, and would like some clear replaements. I saw an I30 the other day with clear ones and they werent Cefiros.
ANy help would be appreciated.
