Headlights! The only replacement headlights anyone should be installing in their first gen G35 coupes are the '06 Projectors! Regardless of what aftermarket manufactures claim, they're not nearly as bright or work as well as OE projectors! Keep watching our Marketplace under private classified, you'll find a set. Make sure the tabs are in place, otherwise they've been ripped out and stolen!

I actually like how they make the car look. Better than any other headlight I've seen in my opinion.

Woke up early and feeling good today. Since we ran outta time to tackle my rear bearings yesterday, I decided to get it done today. All was going smooth until I got to the left axle nut. I struggled with that thing for over an hour but nothing broke it loose. I gave up and went to home depot to get an impact gun. Knocked it off in a second....me like! Tooka few hours for the whole thing but it was a success! I didnt take much pics because my hands were filthy. But here it is all taken apart.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
I went through that years ago when I fixed the axle click issue. I had to add a part of a jack handle to a breaker bar and jump up and down on it to break the nut loose. They're torqued to something ridiculous, close to 200 ft.lbs IIRC. Got the dam things loose though!

Morimoto is the only reliable aftermarket HID projector builder.
There is only so much OEM projectors our there.
They have plenty of LED Projectors for sale too if that is your bag.

But damn...why do they torque those nuts so hard?
