All you need to do is add the ballists from your '03 headlights to the projectors, it's plug and play. The clearance strip light doesn't exist in the '06s. You're going to love these projectors, that is the best upgrade you can make to a first gen G35 coupe!

Yeah add the ballasts (since you don't have any in stock '03 ones) in line to the projector, OEM fogs same connection, cap the city lights and reuse turn signals.

Thanks for the quick replys my problem is the the notches on the turn signals and housing seem a little to thick to enter the headlight I'm wondering if it has anything to do with my turn signals being 7443 housing and the 06 projectors from what I've read have a 7440

Good point. 03-05 are running lights whereas the 06-07 don't have those. If you can keep the 7443 plug, go with switchback 7443s for a great look.

Try shaving down the notches on the 7443 connector. And yes 06s use a 7440 connector. Or the orientation of the notches on your 7443 connector may differ for the 06 housing
