Putz.............No need for the names.........If I had an owners manual I would have looked already. But since I don't I thought I might come here and get an educated answer.

Thanks anyways.

Broke_as_****: ---> Just ****in with you.

Page 7-25, in my book atleast, they are used to adjust the aim of the headlights. You can store them in their proper place in the little hump behind the drivers seat. Just pry the trim piece off with a rag covered butter knife or a screwdriver so you don't scratch it.

Page 7-25

- A headlight aiming adapter is installed in the vehicle as illustrated. The adapater should be used when attaching the headlight aimer to the aerodynamic headlight lenses.

- Always make sure that the headlight aiming adapter is properly secured after use.

- Such items can become dangerous projectiles in an accident or sudden stop.

- Aiming is not necessary after replacing the blub. When aiming adjustment is necessary, contact your NISSAN dealer.

I can scan the page later if you want

lol...dude...i was wandered that same thing. those things were in my trunk too. i never really took the time to look up what they were for. looks like i got myself something to play with tonight. lol.

BTW: while talking about light, i have a short in my foglight circuit. i was driving down a country road and all the sudden my foglights when out. so i pushed the button and the little light on the fog light switch doesnt even light up. so i get out and check the fuse under the hood. its blown, so i replace it with a spare and it blows it as soon as i stick it in. so my question is....has anyone had this problem??? or know where to locate my fog light wires running through the engine bay?

It seems you have to have a headlight aimer such as the dealer has. So in other words they are useless unless you have the aimer to bolt them too. So as for the T Tops is there a way to secure them for transit? Lets go out on a limb here and guess that nissan only gives you a bag and a strap to hold them in place while giving you some fancy gizmos to aim your lights with only if you have the aimer to hook them too.????????

Makes sense to me.......

Turn the lights on and see if you have power to the bulb recepticle. If you do......it's the bulb....If not........you may have a short......I doubt the car has a left and right fuse for the fog lamps but it is known to be the case on some cars but mostly for the headlights....Just a thought...I have one thats blown and cant get the lens off.......seems like whatever the screw is screwed into is turning on the backside........Any suggestions?.........Can't get to the backside without removing a bunch of things.



Pretty clean inside for a 91......Who wants to buy it?
