This is cool man love seeing you figure it out as you go. Although... not sure why you didn't watch other vids that already show the bumper cover removal needed? Either way nice vid, doing this myself pretty soon once I get some other things sorted with the coupe.
Um I’m gonna answer that as a no. I just looked up what the afs system is (because I’ve never heard of afs before) and my car does not have that. You must have a newer g35 and if it is on it’s probably because you have aftermarket lights.
how does the downroad light output for these Spec-D headlights compare to the factory headlights? How is the quality of these? fit on your car? any water leaking or lens fogging? I'm thinking of replacing the factory headlights on my Honda and don't like that I cannot inspect the Spec-D before purchasing. Thank you
Hey man! These lights are pretty great. The one thing I will say is that they shine everywhere and are super bright. Even though they use the same bulbs I think the lenses are much wider, which is both a good and bad thing. The fitment is nearly perfect. They feel like the same quality of materials as the factory headlights, and I’ve only had one small issue with fogging right after installing them, but they are ventilated perfectly and I’ve had no issues since. I definitely trust Spec-D. These lights are great quality.
These lights are legit man. I got them from redline360 as well. They look sweet and I’ve had no issues since the install. They seem to be very good quality.
@@SethWard1114 ohh alright, was looking at a few peoples videos and their shipping box had branding, mine was just a black box. I got the chrome housing but irl they don’t look like the stock photo, I’m gonna hopefully try to exchange, these are the clear lens with black housing right?
@@THXIIIRTEEN Correct. I thought these would look the best and they really do. I feel like the chrome are just too shiny on the inside but I haven’t seen them in person.
@Michael Lopez Vargas If you look online it will tell you but I’m pretty sure they are only for the coupe. I think the body lines are a little different
They’re open to opinion because from my research most people who’ve had them say they aren’t as bright as the oem projectors like what he had originally on
I actually don’t have any bulbs in there for the fog lights. I was going to swap over the stock ones, but they didn’t fit into the housing. On Redline360’s website they tell you what bulbs you will need to buy for the fog lights, but since I never really used them anyway I figured I would risk it by trying to fit the stock ones in and if they didn’t fit then oh well.
Sure, but the issue was not the tire in the way, it was the lining that was tough to work around. There was no easy way to get that off so I had to force my arm through a small opening between the lining and the bumper.
Bro quick question, I installed mine and the strip was working fine then it just went out when the strip went out my bumper lights also went out.. my turn signal work.
I just took out the factory bulbs and swapped em over along with the ballast, which controls the bulb. I didn’t put in the fog lights though because the bulbs were too small, and I didn’t want to buy new ones. I never use the fog lights anyway.
Hey I wouldn't worry about it. Mine did the same exact thing, but it was also right after the install. It hasn't happened to me since that first time and I've had them for over a year.
I actually decided against that because I like the stock taillights and there aren’t a lot of aftermarket options aside from kits, and I don’t really want to cut into my stock lights.
Hey I got a question, the original day time running lights/high beams (H4/9003 bulbs) that are on in the day time on the stock headlights, are they also on automatically on the the Spec D or is it just the white sequential led part that stays on during the day.
So my stock headlights did not actually have running lights. They had small bulbs that came on when I turned on the parking lights. Those bulbs do not get put into the Spec D lights. They are replaced by the LED strip. In any case though, I still have to flick the switch once to turn them on, meaning the tail lights come on too. They aren’t true running lights, and frankly they really aren’t bright enough to keep them on during the day. I just turn them on around sunset or when it gets dark enough that I don’t need my headlights on to see, but the strips help others see me
Haidar 71 Yeah sorry about that, but that’s because I didn’t even really know what I was doing haha. Just follow the train of undoing bolts until the headlights actually come out, and from there I needed help from another video to switch out the bulbs.
Hey man, I appreciate that you have your own opinion on my car, but there’s a couple of things I have to say to that. Number one, it’s my car and I can do whatever I want, and number two I don’t want to drop a ton of money on wheels.
Dumbass rule if anything it should be to lower the car but even then it’s his build. I got my g lower first wit other carbon fiber pieces before wheels and headlights let a homie be

Thanks for the feedback! Figuring out what to do is half the fun haha. I’m glad I took the time to do this install myself.
That is sick!
Thanks man! I think so too!
these look sick
They are sick
Great vid , good opportunity while the front bumper is off to fit a v35 gtr style one
Are these the regular black or the black smoked version?
These are the clear black ones, not the smoked
@@SethWard1114 appreciate it was having a hard time deciding
So they regular black?!…
Did your afs light turned on? Bc I got a g35 and my afs light keeps blinking idk if bc I don’t got stocked lights or one of the sensors isn’t good
Um I’m gonna answer that as a no. I just looked up what the afs system is (because I’ve never heard of afs before) and my car does not have that. You must have a newer g35 and if it is on it’s probably because you have aftermarket lights.

@@SethWard1114 what type of lights were the headlights you took out? Xenon or halogen?
@@joshuawilson7183 They were just the stock bulbs and I believe they were halogen
Do you use a 10mm to take bumper off?? I just got mine today
RaShawn Steppe Yes I believe 10mm was for all the bolts I had to undo which makes it easy
👍
Hey I don’t have projectors on my stock lights will these headlights still work
They should work. These lights said they work for 03 to 07 G35s
Why wouldn't you show how to re wire the hids onto the spec d's?
They really make it a bitch to get these lights in
I bought mine for red line 360, I’m fairly new to modding, are they legit or is it a company that just supplies them as well.

What bulb are you using for the fog lights? How do make the fogs turn on?

How long did these take to ship to your house??
Next time turn your tire in/out when working on getting 10mm bumper bolts. (Easy)
Sure, but the issue was not the tire in the way, it was the lining that was tough to work around. There was no easy way to get that off so I had to force my arm through a small opening between the lining and the bumper.
@@SethWard1114 do you know wheee I can find these lights for a g35 sedan 2008
@@thewingedangel5520 I don’t think they make these lights for the sedan, just for the coupe.
Bro quick question, I installed mine and the strip was working fine then it just went out when the strip went out my bumper lights also went out.. my turn signal work.
Hmm I don’t know what to tell you man. My lights have worked perfectly fine.
Seth what bulbs did u put in your headlights?? Got mine 2 weeks ago.
I just took out the factory bulbs and swapped em over along with the ballast, which controls the bulb. I didn’t put in the fog lights though because the bulbs were too small, and I didn’t want to buy new ones. I never use the fog lights anyway.
@@SethWard1114 I'm looking to UPGRADE my existing lights instead of swapping old ones into these..
@@kennylsr.4460 I don’t see why you would have to. At least for my 06 those bulbs do just fine and are very bright in the spec-d housings.
So i got these headlights and minds fogged up on the inside immediately after install. Anybody know a solution? Maybe the headlamp seals?
Hey I wouldn't worry about it. Mine did the same exact thing, but it was also right after the install. It hasn't happened to me since that first time and I've had them for over a year.
@@SethWard1114 thank ya so much, that helped a ton cause I really wasn’t looking forward to taking them back out lol😂
You have to seal the outsides with silicone if you dont want it to fog
Dunno why infiniti make it so complicated just to switch out bulbs lol
When are you doing the rear lights?
I actually decided against that because I like the stock taillights and there aren’t a lot of aftermarket options aside from kits, and I don’t really want to cut into my stock lights.
have yours been fogging up?
chris* They did one night when it was cold and humid, which worried me a bit, but it went away the next day and has been fine since then.
did you reseal them ?
What headlight bulbs are you using??
I just swapped out the bulbs from the stock headlights. Not exactly sure which bulbs those are, but that’s what I did.
how do u turn on the white led strip
They come on with the first flick of the headlight switch, the parking lights.
Hey I got a question, the original day time running lights/high beams (H4/9003 bulbs) that are on in the day time on the stock headlights, are they also on automatically on the the Spec D or is it just the white sequential led part that stays on during the day.

My box didn’t say spec d wth
I had someone else tell me that too. Makes me wonder why I did.
What ratchet size do you need?
Pretty sure it was a 10mm
You didn’t show the steps to install it
Haidar 71 Yeah sorry about that, but that’s because I didn’t even really know what I was doing haha. Just follow the train of undoing bolts until the headlights actually come out, and from there I needed help from another video to switch out the bulbs.
@@SethWard1114what video did you watch ?
Was the wiring hard?
It wasn’t too difficult. I had to watch a video for help removing the ballast, but other than that it just plugs right back in to the new housings.
Would these fit the 08 sedan version?
I believe these will only fit the coupe.
What's the model #
How much?
I don’t remember off hand but I want to say somewhere around $400
Number #1 rule before you modifying the car. Always change wheels first in prior to any extrior mods. That looks stupid along with stock wheels.
Hey man, I appreciate that you have your own opinion on my car, but there’s a couple of things I have to say to that. Number one, it’s my car and I can do whatever I want, and number two I don’t want to drop a ton of money on wheels.

You dont even have a g35
