Hi everyone, I am a newbie in this forum, just bought a 2004 Z performace last month... I want to change the stock tail light to LED one... but too many, any sugesttion? and the price range?

And how hard to replace the stock tail light with the new one?

thank much

 

start a search for 06+ taillights.

 

Real simple, i'll see if I have pictures ...

 

Pop the Three screw Cap covers , 12 mm Bolts ? , Carefully pull from body, " Caution !! Do'not break plastic lineup tang in the tailight assembly while removing from the car body !! , Remove the two Led Wire plugins , plug in new lights and real carefully re'assemble ..Done !

Do a search, Their are plenty of writeups and pictures on my350z .com ..

 

More pictures ..

 

The bolts are 10mm but the rest is all correct. OP, remember to pull the lights from the top end (narrow end) and pull them outwards perpendicular to the car to save the tabs.

Yes, I already have an '06, but removed tails to replace turn signal bulbs

 

Plastic Lineup Tangs, Do'not Break ..

 

I had an 04 and bought OEM 06 LEDs. Trust me, you will not be disappointed!

 

Thanks much guys, do you know when I can buy OEM 06 LED? thanks

 

Oh and btw do you know how much? thanks

Just recently switched mine out a few days ago.
Fairly quick and easy to do.
Just keep in mind to be very careful and gentle
when taking them out and putting them in.
You could easily scratch te paint, or chip the lights
if you pry them out/in too hard.
Tools required: 10mm socket, flat head srewdriver,
and PATIENCE.

 

Thank you very much guys, I just ordered a pair from that site.

 

At 3:01pm PST on Monday, June 10th. Don't be late.

Oh, you already knew when to buy

 

hehheheh got it, took about 45min to put it in... really cool... thanks guys

 

Thanks for the follow-up. I hate stories that don't have known endings.

 

wow 45 mins...I did mines in about 10mns+led tails and reverse! I really like the hyper blink to!

 

I thought if you were upgrading the lights to LED, you had to buy a special wire plug up, because the 04 plug is different to the LED 06 plug.

Not true?

Simply buy the 2006 lights, remove old lights and replace with new lights?

 

SO it looks like there is NO cutting or splicing with 03 to 06 tails????

 

Not sure why you guys think Nissan would make things less cost effective by not reusing the preexisting electrical plugs.

It's a Plug-N-Play (PnP) no cutting, no splicing. Thank you come again.
