He must have gotten Canadian 06's thats the only way I could see it working. I had to do all the rewiring and add the relays to mine as per the diagram to get it to function proper.

I was told by a local body shop that works on G35's, that they used multiple sets of projectors from the USA on CDN cars, and the only issue was that "occasionally" the left side blinker would blink faster, and they also lost DRL's. I am not so sure.

I will probably be selling my brand new set of US spec projectors soon.

i have a question to those with an experince of us projectors,
i have read that when the lights are on everything seems to be okay,
do you think if i cover my sensor with something dark (tint it) and keep my headlight settings at auto, when the car think it is night all the time and xenons will be on allthe time do you think that the turn signal issue will be solved as well?
thanks.

Doruk, it will -not- solve the turn signal issue.... It is NOT wired correctly, neither are the city lights. I would rather spend $100-200 at Canadian Tire or some other shop to install the relays, than to half *** it and end up costing myself more money down the road in bulbs and whatever else eventually fries due to improper wiring.

so do you think i should get the pdf file and go to canadian tire to get them do it? i don't know if they would do that there,i have no experience at all about rewiring and all that kind of electronic stuff, i have looked at the pdf file and looks so way over my capability with the wires
i have PMed two of g35drivers from ottawa which they have done to get help from them (paid ofcourse) but didn't get any replies yet unfortunately,
i though this would be plug and play and was so excited about these projectors

Well, I wouldn't necessarily go to Canadian Tire, but I'm sure they are qualified. I'd check out some local mechanics or stereo shops and bring them the diagrams. If they are comfortable with it. Some guy in Vancouver (can't remember the name offhand) got his done at a local shop for $150.

Wondering if anybody could hook me up with a technical schematic (I have the .pdf with pictures of the DIY, just no schematics to take to a shop) for rewiring 06 headlights.

Thanks in advance!
