lol those guys are pretty expensive...i just did a search and they're charging over 550 for one headlight...i got my passenger side headlight for 300 off ebay...its just tough waiting it out on ebay to find one at a good price...there are also no aftermarket headlight assemblies out for our cars so your best bet is to just creep on ebay until you can find one in the 250-350 range...i'd sell you my stock headlights but im not sure when i'll receive my modified ones...good luck

he went ahead with the g37 lights because they have fewer LEDs...not sure when they'll be done, i guess it'll make them that much sweeter

Those are list prices. Contact the dealer and they will usually negotiate a better price. I've saved as much as 60% off the stated price.

Thanks for all your help and input guys. Today my search ended however. I came across a pair of 07 sedan lights on ebay and paid 440 with shipping for the 2 of them, and that included all working bulbs.

Another noob question for you guys.....sorry. So i have to replace both of my headlight bulbs and i know that they D2S bulbs, but do our cars require a specific k amount? Bc i have seen them with 6000 8000 or 10000K. I have never dealt with these kinds of headlight bulbs before and i was a bit confused by it all. I really appreciate the help from all of you. Oh and i am asking bc i dont want to pay the 100 a bulb the parts store wants so im ebaying them lol.

K is the color of the bulb. it also is related to total light output

as stated 4300k is stock. it also has the highest light output. as you go lower in K the output of light goes down and the color gets more yellow, as you go higher in k the light output also goes down, and the color goes blue, then purple.

a lot of people replace the stocks with 6000k to get a little more (hyper-white) look

my preference is 4300k or 6000k any thing else looks kinda ricey
