ive been searching for this for the last hour and couldnt find it.. I know there has to be one out there already..

update: did the install today and it went pretty smooth.. the only problem i had was with the bumper clips.. i broke 2 of them.. does anyone know where i can get replacements??

will post some pics tmrw.

 

plugs right in as far as I know... I know tail lights for sure... headlights. seen one person swap headlights, so I know it can be done

 

hopefully thats the case.. i thought there was a small modification that needed to be done but maybe im wrong? can anyone confirm this?

 

which headlights are you wanting to switch?

 

did you mean tails?

 

the best way to handle this is to get the plugs from the 06+ lights. You WILL have to splice your wires into the new plugs. Have a volt meter handy and test/mark the functionality of each wire, the color codes are not the same.

It's actually a VERY easy job if you have enough wire from the new connectors. The thing is, they are headlights. You really dont want them going out on you. You dont want corrosion or shorting, so take your time. Solder them properly (X them together so they cant be pulled or shaken apart). Use thick/quality shrink tubing and make sure to zip tie the harness in place so vibration cant do any damage to your connections. Seal it all up as best you can. And then enjoy some seriously bada$$ lights.

 

Well right now i have the oem 03 hid headlights so will it still require the wire mod? I don't have a solder gun and don't wanna f it up obviously

These should help you out...

 

No need to worry. Since you already have OEM HID assemblies it is plug and play. Tails as well. IF you have the base like me you will have to do some wire clamping or splicing like I did which is still not too bad once you have the right diagram.

 

^^^^
i have an 04 350z base when i did my conversion i got my harness off an 05 enthusiast model and cut off the old harness and put the new harness on it was all color coded so no wories about that i used the wires and allot of electrical tape. anyway You wouldent need to go through all of this because you have factory HID which would be a direct swap no modification required. weather you have a base w/o hid or w/hid both ways are very easy to do.

Here is my DIY on removing the bumper and headlights. It is all plug and play and you should not have any difficulty.

Did you find another set? How'd everything go with the scammer?

 

no, the lights will plug right up. i have them on my '04 and no issues at all. you only have to do the wire mod if you have the base halogen lights and want to convert to the HID. you will have to modify the turn signal bulb though. i can't remember what bulb to snip

 

yea i found another set.. just got a notification from paypal yesterday they are refunding my account within the next couple days.

 

thanks for the help

 

should be very helpful.. about how long did it take to get the bumper and lights out?

 

Well in my case it is pretty quick because I done so many headlights which is about 10 minutes (making sure I have all the bolts and clips). I would say if you have never done it perhaps 15-20 minutes. If you get suck feel free to message me.
