My fellow Maxima Enthusiast. There is a matter of utmost importance that must be either expoloited or stomped right now. There are people on ebay and other forums that are selling Skyline R32 headlights and claim they fit any 95-99 Maxima. This seems impossible. I have examined the photos of both the skyline and maxima lights and can't see how that is possible. I have emailed people who have bought them and are selling them and no one is yet to show proff that it works. I am affraid that fellow maxima owners out of desperation for headlight upgrade are being scammed into buying lights that will not work.
On the other hand if their claim that "it plugs right in" is true, then could this be the answer to our need for a head light "MOD" that will transform the stock look of the Maxima to a euro look that all the Integra and civic owners have had for years.
First the Shyline lights are installed (appear from photo) at an angle while the maxima light installs flush or straight. If the skyline light can be modified then 4 problems must be addressed.
1) Light dispersment. The light must be installed in a way to disperse in the same manner as the stock lights or further. How ae you gonna line that up since there is no onbord level or adjustment for the skyline light.
2)stability. With a modified braket to hold the light in place will the light stay in place or will yoou have to keep making adjustments.
3)Wattage. The skyline has 3 lens and not just 1 like the maxima. New relays will have to be installed and wire harness to handle the increase power.
4)The marker lights. The marker lights for the skyline are different. Different shape and size so the skyline headights would not line up correctly to the stock marker lights. No a big problem because that can be easily fixed. Also the hood of a max is shaped to line up with the headlights. The stock headlights has a curve to it while the Skyline headlights are straight and are slightly recessd on one side. Any ideas any one? If this can work I say we all order them and hope we don't f@#& up our pimped out rides. Here is a look at the light.
Oh by the way when my girl say what I did to my max she said it was sexy. Never thought a car could get a rise out of a girl but hey..I"ll take it.
