Question Stock 2007 g35 sedan headlights

I know that the stock headlights are xenons but it doesnt seem bright at all. Also, it seems like it points too low to the ground. Is there a way to adjust the headlights so they point a little higher?

Thanks

Behind your headlights is a long adjuster with a 6 point at the end for a socket. Its usually locked with a U guider. I took my U guiders off so that i can adjust my headlights from my engine bay. You could get to these from the wheel well if your U guiders are still on.(most likely if your stock) Also to make them brighter.... I swapped the lens with clear STI lenses from theretrofitsource.com.. works great.

Yep. https://g35driver.com/forums/v36-int...locations.html

Just a note, although you can adjust via the *****, there is a note on the FSM about needing the CONSULT tool to further adjust it (esp. for auto-leveling). I have done it via **** only and it seems to be working fine.

No, don't do it! If you think your lights are not bright enough now, changing them out to 8000K will make them much worse. Stick with 4300K for maximum brightness. Certainly no higher than 5000K!

Here is the link to the DIY
https://g35driver.com/forums/v36-diy...lens-swap.html

It tooks about 5 hours with 2 guys...because we painted the housing also. Id say 3-4 hrs for just the lens swap.

Before and afters are
4300k+stock lens
then 4300k+clear lens
and last shots were 8000k+clear lens.

8k would make your lights less bright but more blue. I think 6k would be perfect for you.
