Thumbs up Headlights

Hi, it's been a while since my last post.

Quick one - will the projector headlights from a 2007 G35 Coupe fit the 2005 model?

If someone could answer this ASAP I'd be very grateful as I am looking at buying a set.

Thanks in advance.

Apparently there's a difference between the '06 & '07 coupe headlights, numbers are different. 2006 Infiniti coupe headlights!

Most likely the parts department at your local Infiniti dealer?

According to my parts dealer both years headlights are the same! Hope this helps! You don't even have a Nissan dealership?

Gary, my local dealership is 250km away!!

OK so the OEM headlights in America are for LHD cars. Will the same OEM headlights do the job on RHD roads here in the UK? I mean, can they be adjusted to suit? I've no idea.

Can anybody rate these lights from Aussie Land http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CCFL-Angel...3D131139343838

Yes, it's just how you adjust them.

There is a shield built into the projector that cuts off the light from opposing traffic. The RHD ones put the larger cutout on the right, whereas the LHD is on the left. It's enough to worry about. You likely cannot buy just the cutoff to switch them over.
