I know this might sound a little dumb but yesturday night I was driving at night with my headlights on and when i took a right turn the driver side bulb suddenly turn off. Right now when I try to turn it on i can hear a clicking noise coming from my driverside headlight. I believe I have oem hids on my 350z. What can it be? Can it be anything else other than the bulb? I got quoted $180 just for one bulb at the local nissan dealership.


Thanks

 

you can get both bulbs and ballasts for that price off ebay.

 

did the dealership confirm that replacing the bulb would fix your problem? what happens if they are wrong? are they going to take the bulb back?

 

they just gave me a quote on how much the bulbs were.

 

Clicking noise indicates bulb failure. Time to upgrade to Phillips 6000's. Run from the dealer don't walk. Check classifieds here also. Many OEM for sale.

The 6000k's look tight with hardly any noticable fall-off of usable lumens. You can get a pair for around a hundred bucks and they look awesome. Enjoy!

 

where can i get it at?

Yes Piaas are pricey but go with Phllips 6000's.

 

Is you Z still under warrantee? The only way to confirm that is in-fact a bulb is to swap it with a good bulb. It could be the HID controller or the housing. I just had a bulb replaced under warrantee on my wife's 2006 Murano with 21K on the clock.
