Please Help
Recently i bought the passenger side 06 projector(canadian) in canada, but couldnt find the driver side. So i had to buy the driver side in the states.
So i got a shop to help me install it today and i got them to follow this guide: http://www.members.shaw.ca/wincana/G35CoupeLights.html
The problem was, there is a loud buzz from the drl module box and that the passenger side lights up dimmer than the driver side. And on the driver side blinker it lights up but dim.
As you can see driverside is brighter. He said that he follow all the instructions and that it might be the drl module box.
Also, back then when i had my reflectors, one side was off and it was to do with the drl module. So i got it resoldered and it worked.
What do you guys think? Any of you guys had this problem?
Oh and i dont have the hyperblinking problem.

Sorry guys , took that page down a while ago. Just came back to post the last remaining parts from my G35 coupe and found a lot of mail in my mailbox about the headlights.
I can't find the drawing explaining how to rewire the headlights to make them work properly but it is a simple rewiring of the grounds. You will loose the DRL but who really cares.
If you got the old 2003 lights just map out the wires from the headlight connector and compare them to the wiring of the 2006 and latter headlight wiring. They are almost the same except for the grounding wires.
I also remember adding a new connector (dual filament bulb) where the signal bulb was so the parking light was also on the amber signal light bulb. Made the 2006 projector look similar to the 2003 headlamps but better.
