Not to rain on your parade, but the MO's halogen reflector housing is not well suited for the HID's light output. That is why the OEM HID option utilizes projector lenses. You need a sharp cut-off to prevent stray light from leaving the housing.

Now having said that, please make sure the lights are properly aimed to prevent dangerous glare from adversely affecting oncoming drivers.

Looks good and I still agree with what Njjoe said.

So I could be wrong but my 2010 came with a projector housing, and I tried to take a better picture. When I drive it has the sharp cut off like my previous Factory HID cars.

Can you explain how the projector light will help while driving...

They look like projectors to me.

I stand corrected. I did not realize Nissan had dropped the halogen reflector housing for the projector lens. Kudos to Nissan for enhancing the design.
