I got a great deal on some 07 headlights from a member, so like any other sane 350z freak would do I immediately proceeded to bake them in the oven, take them apart and take sand paper to them.

I almost regretted it...

I saw Tac-M’s thread on his CCFL halo’s and needed to give it a shot. I just had to have them. It seems like he had a much easier time than I did though. I bought a G35 kit and it had a great set of ballasts, but the rings we’re flimsy. I broke the only ones out the four that would fit. I then went searching for another source for the rings.

I found one guy on the whole internet who sold kits by size for really cheap (Cheap enough that it didn’t bother me much when the first I broke a lead on my first set, costing me another week). His kit had much sturdier and thicker CCFL rings but the ballasts proved to be bargain basement at best …after I put out the fire, I used the ballast from the old kit and voila! Success!

Here are my results. Let me know what you think. Sorry for the crappy pics…

Thanks to Tac-M for leading the way (sanding the bezel was pure genius!), Mr. Sparco for the wiring info on the 06 headlights and lve2xlr8 for the hookup on the 07 headlights.

 

i think it looks badass

 

goddammit! Where are you guys getting these nice looking eyebrows? This is the second car today that I've seen with those (the other is the silver Z with his dad's 328).

Car looks fantastic man, great job on the headlights too.

 

Holy moly that is one nice le mans. I love those headlights!

 

wow. me rikey.

 

Most definately one of the nicest Z's I've ever seen. Bar none

 

Dang all of a sudden comes one of the nicest lemanZ I have ever seen. If only you had been here a month earlier for the contest!

 

Thanks for the comments guys! It's was a rough process. Got the AUT eyelids last year from intensepower.com pre-painted.

 

+1
How was the swap from the 05 to the 07? Looks nice as hell man!

 

I've been aound... just hiding out Thanks man!

 

beautiful car! i love the new lights! great job!!! i'm actually concidering this as well but i don't know if i'm personally up for it or not. seems kinda difficult. Do you have a pic of your head lights on w/the halos?

 

The swap ended up being the easy part. I compiled all the info from search and was able to put it together. Mr. Sparco helped enormously with that. I just used my original wiring harness from my old lights and swapped the pins. You do have to splice the blue wire with the green and black for it to work properly.

 

Not a HUGE fan of the halo mod, but I do like the eyelids and the painted black lights. I also am a big fan of the corner's... I'm not sure how good they would look on my MB 07 though :/

 

where did u order the halo's from? it looks very hottt

 

I do but they came out really bad. Headlights were too bright. I really suck with the camera.

 

Thanks again.

My first set oh halo's with the great dual ballast came from ebay. I broke the rings while test fitting. The other two sets I got from this guy:

The only bad thing is the leads are at a 90 degree angle from the actual lens so the first was a clearance issue with the smaller diameter rings. At first I was going for the Candaddy look. But alas, no clearance. After the second set broke I went to the 95mm's.

 

very nice mod where in nj are u??

 

thanks for the info!

 

Much appreciated, I'm in South Jersey. Cherry hill area.

 

dude that is so cool man it looks really good
