L.E.D. Headlights Anyone?

Hey guys I posted this in the ext./int. mod section but I am posting here as well. Has anyone come across an L.E.D. setup for the headlights like audi has?

Why post in 2 places? Come on..be patient. I would merge the two threads already..this just adds unnecessary threads.

As far as coming across anything... I dont think we are going to be coming across anything here. I think people elsewhere will come across what WE create here. We are on the cutting edge of 370z progress and modifications. If you can't find it here, chances are it hasn't been done yet, maybe you should take the initiative and do something instead of waiting for someone else to.

There was a thread before where someone else was considering this, look for it, there was plenty of good information on it. The search button is your friend.

G'day Sir.

Why did they make the rear lights LED but not the headlights? Just a cost issue or other reason?

I would think that because LEDs only illuminate brightly so that it can be seen ( Purpose of brake lights), but they don't project enough lumens to make other illuminate it's surrounding. You'll need alot of LEDs to match the lumen power of HID/Xenons.

Check out Nissan USA official website under accessories for OEM LED set up. It has 5 horizontal LED on each side of the license plate.
