The only thing I buy from eBay is a used video game every now and then.

There were other threads concerning both sets you posted. You would be better off spending more and doing 06+ oem. These ebay lights still look ricey IMO.

If you dont want to spend all the extra dough on 06 lights, at least black out the housing on your 03s. Cheap and will look good.

hey i was also wanting some lights and thought about getting the 06+, how involved is the instal, a lot of cutting and rewiring or is it all plug and play? my o3 has the factory hids already so i hope it can be plug and play or close to it at least. thanks

If I'm not mistaken it's a plug n play if you already have hid's. You will have to remove the front bumper and fender liners to get to the lights. A little involved if you've never done it but well worth the time.

I like the second set in smoke chrome. Was looking at them last night. DashZlighting.com (vendor/my350z.com supporter) banner popped up so i clicked it.

They reuse the oem ballast and hid bulb. The only concern is the led's failing in the DRL.

I would definitely prefer these over my 03. 06 lights are getting too common now.

a fine fine post by one who only has 49 posts so far himself..i think there should be a prize for you, seriously. Not being sarcastic at all. Most guys at 49 post count are the ones making the ebay threads.. not smashing them down as they should be smashed. Well done.

And i do also commend you for having not adding pornhub.com to your favorites bar.
You must be married. heh heh.

Im just a quick learner when it comes to using the search function. A lot of people could keep from being flamed if they were just to use it! I do have to admit though..in those 49 posts I should have used the search function once or twice

no they should reproduce, but the babies should be stolen after birth and used to create a slave army to grow our food and fix our crumbling infrastructure.

I mean, not like ive thought this thru as a real plan or anything.. ahem.. or plan on running for office? Thatd just, well thatd be crazy.

BTW vote for me.

I was looking into these since hitting a deer but insurance wanted oem parts ordered and well after much thought oem 03-05 lights look better.

I wont have to worry about cheap materials used to makes my headlights
Oem is well.. oem quality
Won't leak after time
Doesn't have cheap led's that will burn out...

oem ftw
