Are "city lights" the little lights next to the head lights or is that just another way to say "head light".

How do you gain access to the lights? Do you need to remove the whole unit?

Hey Prostyle: Last week I had Tanabes installed by Prestige Motorsport also (Contact Jason)
Yes, he definitely seems to know his STUFF. ;-) PH: 281-831-6902

It was $250 for the install. He said my car was actually the first G37 he has done. Tell him Kim with the silver G37 referred you. I told I would be sending him some customers. ;-)

Nam: Do you think the bulbs Choy Boy used for his city lights would match the OEM headlights?? Or do you think they are too bright? I was thinking to order those. They look a little whiter that the 6-LEDs.

the citylights are not next to the fogs, the citylights are the smaller less bright bulbs in the fog housing.
