Default Headlight Bulb Help

ok so my left headlight just went out so i decided to buy two new bulbs. i just purchased 8000K OEM bulbs....they are D2S/D2R for a 2003+ 350z. Im hoping hey will fit right?

Also...never checked on how to removed the headlights to get to the harness so any idea's on which would be the easiest way to replace the bulbs?

Thanks

There is no such thing as 8000k OEM bulbs. All OEM cars use 4100-4300k bulbs

i also have the same problem, you need the D2R bulbs for the 2003, 4300K and theyre not cheap. You can go up to 12000K, but the higher the K value, the more bluer/ even purpley colour it becomes, but your output is drastically reduced.. alot of guys run thr 6000k and it seems ok. To get to the rear of the headlight to change the bulb, you need to go through your outer fender well, easiest thing is to remove the front tires and peel it off..
