Default Xenon headlights in Australia

Hi all,

I have the 2004 track model but in Australia we don't get the xenon lights...not even as an option.

Does anyone know if it is possible to upgrade from halogen to xenon without spending a fortune?

And apologies if this has come up before but I did a search and couldn't see it.

Thanks.

all you really need is the bulb and the ballast ~ best from another 350z b/c the ballast will fit very neatly underneath your headlight... maybe try E-Bay - I will also ask my friend who's dad owns a junk yard if he's got any written off 350z I can steal / buy the headlights of... all 350z come w/ HIDs in Canada so it won't be too hard to find one... i'll keep you posted!

Ok thanks a lot Veilsidez33. Appreciate it mate.

I don't understand why we don't get them here considering we pay 70k for the car!

Perhaps HID is not street legal in Australia?

No thats not it beause all the bmws, mercs and audis have it. Even the S2000 has it. We just got shafted I think.
