Default Changing out My Headlights to Xenons

Hey Everyone Again,

Yes I know I have a previous post from yesterday but that one was more an open topic. This one is more specific. I think I want to change out the headlights of my car. I have a 2005 350z Touring. I've been reading other posts and theres talk about if the 05 is HID or just Halogens. If its HID it's easier to convert. I'm really confused and have no idea what I have, all I know is the Xenon looks nicer and I'm pretty sure I want them. So I'm gonna add a photo of the headlight right now, sorry it's raining in cali right now.

So can someone tell me what situation I am in, what I will need to buy or do, how much I should expect and point me to what ever post I need to look at. I really appreciate the help. Theses forums have been really helpful.

Buy 06+ bi-xenon headlights, plug and play. And if you have a touring trim, then you have HID.

You drive a Touring. You have HID. HID uses a special bulb for HID. And you want to convert to what?

2005 a reflector/projector design.
2006 is a single bi-xenon projector.

Study here to see if it is worthwhile to update to 2006: http://www.*********.com/zwiki/350Z_Headlights
