Changing fog light bulbs
Can anyone give me a step-by-step on how exactly to change the fog light bulbs. I've heard that the wheels need to be turned to one side and the fender taken off but I can't visualize exactly what needs to be done and I don't want to start taking apart my G and find out I can't put it back together :-). Thanks for any help!

Re: Changing fog light bulbs
The Infiniti rep called me back last night in response to the misprint in the manual that I had told her about. Well they are gonna fix the manual and she is sending me a 15000mile service voucher to make up for my lost time. I must say that Infiniti Customer Service has yet to disappoint me. Most other car companies would have just said thanks for the info and have a nice day but they went the extra mile. Well as long as they keep making great cars, I'll be there to buy 'em!! :-)

Actually yes there are lo/hi beam H4 HID's available. They are slightly more than the regular single beams and will work fine for high beam/fog lights. I carry the Catz units which are made in Japan and are the nicest ones available but there are other manufacturer as well. I know US spec cars are H4/HB3 but not sure on Canadian.

Re: Changing fog light bulbs
Marce,
The bulb has a blue coating, its right up against the reflective material, so it comes across blue.....but as it goes down the strip....it fades closer to white..... Of course its gonna be a tad bit dimmer b/c its the same wattage and bulb as the factory with a coating, so its a tad bit dimmer. I really like the T6 map lights as well.....didn't like it at first, but it grew on me.....

Re: Changing fog light bulbs
KongzGx....I should have been clearer...with HID's....
a D2R is the HID capsule for a reflector based system. There is a sheild on the capsule that blocks most of the light from hitting the lower portion of the headlight reflector. This area is generally useless.
a D2S, has no shield, and is for projector systems (like BMW & Audi).
the 350Z, is more like a hybrid projector-reflector system that uses a D2R capsule.
