If it's like my IS350 and my Civic (with s2000 projectors retrofitted in), then it's just a matter of buying the correct bulb, unclipping the old bulb, removing the bulb, then clipping the new bulb back in and making sure you didn't mess anything up in the process.

Just make sure it's a D2s bulb. That bulb is standard issue for most OEM HID applications. I personally use Phillips 4300k 85122+ bulbs in my other cars. I might switch to the Phillips Ultinon 6000k bulbs for the Z.

I'll probably switch them out first thing when I receive my Z. It's not here yet, so I can't confirm everything is as I say it is. I'm just going on prior experience with other cars with HID projector headlights.
