HID Projectors for 2012 Pathfinder?

Postby peytral » Fri Jan 11, 2013 11:31 pm

Do these exist anywhere? I've been searching the entire internet and seems like there is only for 05 to 07... so does that mean it's impossible to get projectors for newer ones?

I've never found them. As mentioned, they are available in Europe but I've never confirmed they are an exact fit for '08+ and cost to import is about $3,500 from what I've found. Best bet is aux lights. Lots of posts on the forum dealing with the sub-par lighting on these. Good luck.

The part numbers for the Xenon lamps are actually 26010EB380 and 26060EB380. Around $740 a piece

The best 9007 bulbs presently on the market are the Philips Xtreme Vision items:

You could put aircraft ligting in the stock housings and it would be crap. The optics are horrible.

I went for the blind everyone option and put HID's in with halogen high beams (Canadian cars need it for DRL's),

I rarely get high beamed. when I do it's usually when I'm on a incline in the road at an intersection.

That being said it's so common in Vancouver the cops don't even care anymore unless you get a VI for other reasons. EVERYONE around here throws HID's in their car.

hid retrofitting....

Postby HydroPonix » Sun Feb 17, 2013 9:41 pm

I was pointed out by goblue that "the retrofit source" was the way to go if it needs to be done right. i've never retrofit before so this might be interesting , so far I am 700 $ in including new oem headlights, tools and the retrofit hid complete kit for my setup. I am taking my time on this one and will try to put some kind of "walkthrough". all I know is I am not looking forward to removing my bumper just to get the lights on and off... btw 05 pf se offroad.
