Well, all I ever see are 5.5th Gen Maxima's coming to the boneyard...So I decided I wanted to use the Japanese OEM ballast and igniters for a fog light system...I removed all the unnecessary wiring, kept the plastic holding bracket, drilled holes and installed 10-32 riv-nuts and mounted behind the OEM fog lights...Man they came out nice, I used spare 8000K Xtralight H3 bulbs and the output along with the HID headlights look great....Those OEM ballast in the 2002-03 Maxima(s) are hefty Heavy units (35W) and inexpensive!!!!...Good luck.

 

Pics or I don't believe you!

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Right now I'm lost in the fog without pictures. LOL

 

Sorry but I don't know how to upload pics anymore with Photobucket wanting money now....I don't know why I would have to lie about something so small...It was too just show what's possible for low money and a little bit of ingenuity. What's another method to load pictures maybe FB?

 

don't need photobucket,i load them with the paper clip icon on the max org. When you are replying or making a new thread

 

I was never aware that attachments could be used on forums...I'll get the pictures for the nonbelievers...this same thing went down when everyone said a 6" round resonator couldn't fit the 5th Gen...(The Carltonator);Early 5th Gen, 6 poke SE rims wouldn't fit over the 6th Gen Front brake upgrade on a 5th Gen chassis (another lie); Now these foglights converted from 5.5th Gen Headlights...Give me a day or two I'll have pictures for the nonbelievers...Thanks for letting me know I can load them off my computer with attachments I again wasn't aware of this working through attachments.

 

Ttruthfully........

It's just so we can copy you! LOL

Seriously!

 

I've done this for a few years now with adapters. Definitely nice and have less issues and anything aftermarket.

Just be sure to mount the ballasts/igniters up as they are not exactly waterproof.

 

I have down under the battery tray (driver's side) and next to the windshield washer reservoir (pass. side)...Just installed new H-3 6000k HID bulbs and making it look like daytime when back in the Texas hill country. There's so many deer out here I had to go with HID ASAP. I scrapped a big buck one coming from Cuero, Tx. He slid to miss me, I swerved to miss him, and he hit my Hardbody's mirror and his antlers scrape down the side of my truck... No one got hurt he ran away and I rolled away needing HID headlights for the 3rd Gen, 4th Gen and Hardbody....

 

still no pics......

 

I'll try tomorrow....
