New type of headlight? Anyone seen this?
Cheap unregulated SMD leds that will burn out in a few weeks, and halogen projectors that are a disgrace compared to the OEM 06+ projectors.
Halos look decent on BMW's, these are screaming rice

I like em! and i have a black G with a blacked out theme so it goes well. But I checked on ebay for the 06 OEM lights and couldn't really find any good ones. Anyone have a good place to buy em? And are they plug-n-play on an '04?

Maybe it's just me, but I don't like the fact that Nissan removed the lighted side strips from the '05 up headlights.
For what you're going to pay for a set of '06 headlights, you'd be better off sending your '04's off to get them retrofitted with projectors. Just my $.02.

I can't give you any definite stores or specialty shops, but if you go to Maxima.org, there's a member by the name of ChrisMan287 who does absolute top-notch work when it comes to retrofits. I believe there are a few sponsors here on Driver that will do retrofit/paint work as well.
The only reason that I suggest retrofits over 1.5 gen headlights is because if you're looking for that clean, projector cut-off output, you won't get it from the 1.5 gen headlights, as the projectors are frosted, and the shields Nissan use are shoddy.
