I want to put an 02-03 front end on my 00 maxima. I know everything bolts up but my question is do I need to swap the headlight harness for the headlights?

 

Short and sweet YES! 5.5 gen are hid.

 

Good luck!

I don't think that you can swap just the wiring harnesses for the headlights. The headlight wiring design has a lot of design differences between the 5.0 and the 5.5. You would need to swap the fuse block and relay blocks as well, which amounts to all the wiring under the hood. And then you would have to make changes to the wire harness for the engine differences.

What would be easier to do would be to do the wiring conversion shown in the link below.

These are the harnesses you'll need from the donor or i read you can buy them new
Also you should check out tunermax front end my lips quiver every time i see it

 

for the HID's you only need the wire harness, $35 bucks I paid a while back when I did the swap on my car.... Good luck with the front fascia change.

 

Does Matt know how you feel about his front?

 

Go away Troll! We dont ask for pics of your Wallet Wrenching activities!

 

Nope me and that white girl keep it to ourselves

 

Thanks guys is think I'm just gonna keep the 2000 front on. Paint the grill primer color and do hids. Maybe do the diy 02-03 grill on my car. The front end seems to have to put in a lot of work. I don't wanna mess with wiring.
