PIAA 168 Extreme Super Whites for $10.87
Link #1
PIAA H4 Super Extremes for $63.71
Link #2
Didn't do any of the shipping calculations, but you woulda saved money on the bulbs themselves.
I don't work for the above company, I just ordered from them a coupla months back. Shipped item promptly. I ordered a total of 8 sets of wedge bulbs/T-6. No problems whatsoever. You can check out their feedback I gave on them on G35driver "buyer's feedback". I spent a good 2-3 hours trying to find the cheapest place and spread the word, but everyone seems to be going to other places like optauto and now autobarn.
Good luck with your install

i have the PIAA white/white LED's, IMO they match the HIDs pretty well, they have a slight hint of blue, but i've seen the wedge bulds and they arent bright enough
BTW import performance warehouse is awsome, i've ordered all my bulbs from them, every order has been received w/in 3 days at most

LED's are just as easy to install, they actually look almost just like the 168's. with out the lights in the clearance they wont match, i suggest you change both to LEDs

I did my Clear corners and High beam/fog bulbs last night
I just jacked the car, removed the wheel, popped off the inner front fender well/guard
(which is like 7 or 8 10mm nuts underneath, 7 or 8 of the plastic push rivets, and a 1 philips screw,
I then had access to the entire Headlamp assy, and the clear corners were about 30 seconds each at that point.
I put in the PIAA Super Plasma GT-X - I am fairly pleased.
The factory High beams are just sad, and aweful yellow.
The Fogs are also too yellow.
The new bulbs the brights are a lot better, and both beams are much whiter

3. Front Turn Signal: I'm 90% sure its a 7440/7443 12v 21w.
4. Side Marker: standard wedge bulb 168 12v 5w for regular bulb. LED replacement does not have a wattage.

So 4 & 5 are both 168? This link is causing me some confusion http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProd...RG-Results.htmOriginally Posted by afr0puff

It says that
Front sidemarker is 194
and
Parking light is 168 ?
Then there is this.... http://www.eautoworks.com/html/bulbS...1-INFINITI.htm
Which doesn't list a 168 bulb... maybe 2 vs 4 door?

I'm new to this thread, and it started out great but got increasingly confusing. Hoping to tame the monster, can we say that the above quote is still correct? Other issues that came up, were (1) that some of these could be replaced with LEDs, and (2) that some of these (i.e. number three) are very difficult to replace

How is 168 and 194 the same? There has to be a difference or else it would be the same number. It is confusing and I still need to figure out if I need the 7443 dual or the 7440 single filament. Someone who has changed these please clarify!!!!
168 and 194 are the same. 194 has a slightly thicker base, but it will fit into a 168 just fine.
