What do you mean?

If you're referring to the headlights system itself.. if HID it should be the smaller projector type lens.

As for the bulb, it should be D2S at 4300K

Hmmm... post a pic of it? You can easily tell which are HID systems and which aren't. HID system will definitely have the project lens. Should look like a crystal ball. Non HID headlights will just have the normal reflective background.

Aren't the D2R sizes for reflective headlights? And D2S/D2C for projector lens type headlights?

BTW, I think I still have my OEM 350Z badge laying around my room.. I'll check when I get home. Only thing is it doesn't have the adhesive backing..

you are correct, the D2R bulb is for reflective headlights and his 05 Z has reflective headlight housing. The small projectors that you see on 03-05 z are not really projectors.
