JDM Sedan Projector Install

Well, folks,

06 JDM Skyline Sedan was to come out with Projector as well, but it never made it to production, I was lucky to get one of Nissan's prototype from Japan...

Fit right in, Here is the installation in progress:

After I put one on:


Projector Off


Projector On;


On with Fog


On with High Beam


More pictures to come after I am done with the install

No, that's for Coupe, The Nissan has decided for the Sedan to keep the orange signal.

as seen on the 07 Sedan here:

Autually, I was given an option to "Clear out" the turn signal, but I made a difficult "excutive decision" to keep it amber

Coupe 06 Cleared out the amber, doesn't mean everyone should follow. I like the amber because that's the only thing that gives a bit of color & "life" to the G's front end. Also it'll look more consistant with the 07 Sedan family, which will come with projector & amber signal.

Plenty of beautiful cars elected to use projector with Amber signal, Here a few:

Ferriari F430 Projector:


2006 Maserati Quattroporte 4dr Sedan (4.2L 8cyl 6A)

The conversion that LittoDevil did had the same shrouds. Does anyone know what are they from?

Yea.. I like amber.. I miss it, soon I have to change the clip of the 06' to the clip of the 05' so the amber stays on too. I don't know how to do it though lol.

OK, I fess up. I made up the story of "Proto type" just kidding around

This is the retro done by LittoDeviL, using TSX Projector + Lexus 430 Bezel as I wanted the OEM look.

E_K busted me right after my fisr post

LittoDeviL, you did amazing job! The beam patern is almost perfect,
I might need to just my headlight just little later but I am amazed how well it lined up out of the box.

Even if Littodevil didn't post pics of the headlights on the previous page, your beam pattern would have given it away. JDM = flares on the left side, rather than right.

Did he mod the TSX projectors?

Does anyone know if the Lexus 430 bezel will fit the S2000 projector? If so where can I get a set?
