What year are these headlights?

Hey guys, Im kinda confused. The guy i'm talking to about these headlights say they are from an 03 but in the pic these look like they have projectors and im pretty sure that only 05-06 coupes came with projectors. I could be wrong so im asking you guys for some clearification. Thanks!![IMG][/IMG]

See, that's what i thought but he said he replaced these with a set of 06 headlights "im assuming he put on sedan headlights?" Anyways are these just plug and play on my 03? and also would 250 be a good price for these? im pretty sure they are but i could be wrong.

250 is probably a set of recalled lights, but yes, they are plug and play on any 1st generation G35 coupe.

You'll need a set of D2S bulbs as well, as the original lights on 03-05 are D2R bulbs.

Don't cheap out on these; get Phillips. (They'll cost you almost as much as the lights)

Nothing wrong with recall headlights. Only need to adjust the beam on the driver side little lower and you'll all set

$250 seems to be the going rate actually. Many people try to get these and sell em for a profit. Especially since i believe in this auction no ballasts are included right?

$250 is a good price. Just make sure you aim them properly.

Something seemed shady about the guy as he had no clue these we're from an 06+ and he said they were off his brothers car. He stated that his brother took these off his car to replace with a set of 06 headlights "wierd he was selling 06 headlights" but he kept saying they were 03 so i asked if the pics he posted were in fact the headlights he was selling and sure enough he said they were. This made me think they were hot and i will not fund thieves. So i passed on em. I could be speculating too much but anyone who really owned a G would know this.
