Don't do it. the reflector is not meant for HIDs. everytime you use them it will glare like crazy.

Piaa makes 4700K halogen H1s or 6000K halogen H1s

Philips makes a 5000K diamond vision but only available in Japan right now. I could arrange to import some.

6000K won't match our stock bulbs at all.

LED's also have problems dealing with heat. Once LED's are heat up they don't last as long, specifically their output decreases at a very fast rate.

The LED's that are on that e-bay link do not seem as if they are the high powered ones. I'm pretty sure they're going to be around .1W each, so you probably want to have a high power ones. I know Superbrightled's has some

a halogen simulated 6000K is ok to match stock HID somewhat. Usually the intensity gives it away that they dont match. Worth a try...

I went with MTEC 4350K Fogs. Match well. I think it is as close to a color match as a halogen bulb could be.

I not have any performance mods. i have leds all around, nav bypass, and strut tower braces. I do everything myself! I dont plan on any big performance mods. I learned from my other car. I had a Pontiac Grand Prix GTP Supercharged and Intercooled then put a turbo and intercooler in it plus cammed. Now that is sitting in my drive after many problems and a blown tranny!! But i have a drag car it is a 72 Nova Small Block 350 caged full street legal!


My G is Black on Black. I am wanting to trade it back in on a 09 G37 Convertible

Ohh wow, I wish I was as skilled as you =D. I have LEDs in the interior now, and have ordered some for the reverse lights. Are you planning any other mods in the near future? Is the navbypass the same as the video hack so you don't need your car to be stopped before playing video etc? I have a base model from cali~~ Where did you get your strut tower brace and how effective are they?

cheers!!
