Replacing HID Xenon headlight bulbs on a 2003 Nissan Maxima

- Has your headlight gone out on your 2003 Maxima? What bulb do you need? Can you replace it yourself? The quick answer is that if you have standard low beam headlights, it's an H1. If you have HID, it's D2R. Don't know? Your Nissan dealer can tell you with just a few numbers from your VIN. But aren't HIDs expensive? Not necessarily, but it will be if you have the dealership replace them. Can you do it yourself? Absolutely. Watch on and learn.
Jus replaced my headlight watching this video, thanks M8!! 🔥🔥
If you don't want to remove the entire headlight, you can remove that battery and get enough room to get to the bulb. Other then that super helpful video!
Used this exact same bulb. Seems legit.
All 2002/2003 Nissan Maxima come standard equipped with xenon headlights D2R type bulb.
Okay. My 2001 had standard and I didn't know about these until we got this one.
didn't know George Lucas owned a Maxima awesome tutorial really helped out my friend!
Thanks for great video. Looks a lot easier than I thought. I was able to get a pair of Hella D2R's from Rock Auto for about $55. I work for Napa and even I can't get them that cheap. I cringe every time we sell them to a retail or wholesale customer.
Cool. It really is easy and safe, although dealerships will say that you can't change them yourself.
@@vfxtutswithdan1893 hey can I do the same for the anzo crystal lights
Nice watch! Where did you get that?
This is similar to my '03 nissan altima. The 3.5L SE uses the same bulb. You just have to remove the radiator overflow, just set it to the side, then pullout the washer fluid stem. It's a pain getting to it still, but I didn't need to remove the whole headlight, the driver side you just remove some of the airflow out of the way too. I made the mistake of thinking I needed the bulb connected as I put the clips and all that in place. I don't what I was thinking. I should just do what you did, put the bulb in first, clip it, then attach the electric power source to the back of the bulb. These things can be such a pain, but yhis video helps.
I hope nothing scary happened.
Thank you so much for this. Save me a trip and about 100 bucks
Glad to hear that!
Hey thanks 4 video I bought 2 different and no fit now I know which one thanks alot so much 🥳
I converted mine to led cost me $100 but it's worth it. The high beam I run f 16 auxbeam bulbs. This set up is perfect.
On amazon look up dzg led for the 03 maxima with the coupon it gives it is $72. The lights are worth it I promise. I've had them in since early november and no issues one bit.
LED and not HID?
@@vfxtutswithdan1893 Yes led, the kit is on amazon, I've had them for about 3 months now
good job. Thanks for the video.
You're welcome. I hope it helps.
Quick question... Do your headlights look cloudy?
No. One of the lenses is a bit oxidized and I intended to refurbish it.
@bigw8549 hey I have cloudy headlights, do you know a good fix?
@@tobincharles8651 there's many different things you can do to clean up your lights. Some are quick fixes and some require more effort. I would just search on UA-cam and find a way that works for you.
Great video!Do you have a link to purchase the lights online?
I've seen Nissan OEM HID bulbs on ebay for a decent price, but here's what I bought; anything like this should be fine: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MZWM4K4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
@@vfxtutswithdan1893 Can we use these bulbs on the High Beams and fog lights as well?
@@louismadruga6872 I don't think so. Each bulb needs its own ballast, so there's not room for more than that. The high beams are standard bulbs. I've never heard of HIDs for fog lights.
@@louismadruga6872 H3 is what the fog light bulbs are.
Right. Not HID.
