Default those looking to purchase 06+ headlights...
anyone looking for the OEM 06+ Bi Xenon Head lights?

i ran across this website that is selling them for a very good deal IMO, and thought i'd share it with you guys so you dont blow around $1200 at the dealership.

go-part.com

http://www.go-part.com/0609-nissan-3...r-p-41935.html

$801 shipped for both driver & passenger. pretty good deal if you ask me.
or $389 a piece.

sorry if i broke any advertisement rules... (if there are any)

Are you sure it's for the whole light and not just the housing?

I've normally seen them with no balasts, lenses, or bulbs for this price.

"OEM-Style Item," made in China? I guess they finally made a replica of the 06+ headlights.

Edit: Found some on ebay as well. 317 shipped.

If I needed to replace my 06+ headlights these would be a great alternative.

"As good as or better than the original OEM part" I guess it's worth a try?

I'd say so. Will probably look into them within the next couple of months.

^ yep just noticed that as well. so I'd say $389 for the full headlight assembly is a hell of deal.

Yeah i'm guessing the OP headlamps are cheap knock-off's. They can't even give you a proper picture....

As for the ebay ones by AmericanMotorParts, I purchased a set of the non smoked ones from them for $850 shipped. They didn't come with bulbs or ballasts, or the plastic locking cover though. Still a good deal... They are genuine, real, OEM, Nissan headlamps... at least the non-smoked ones I got are.

Does anyone know if the 05 HID ballast and bulb will work on the 06 Housing? I know the 05 uses a Halogen for High Beam, but it seams the 06 uses only one HID bulb for both High and Low beam. Any thoughts?

The ones on eBay appear to be aftermarket. Shows:

Interchange Part Number: OEM Number: 26076-CF40A
Manufacturer Part Number: Partslink Number: NI2518108

Since the OEM number and Partslink number are different, I'm guessing these are OEM replicas.
