Is there anyway to change the way my headlight cut-off on my 2005 350z?
i replaced the stock halogen headlights with 6000k hids. i had an installer do it for me. i finally figured out how to get to the bulbs but im not satified with the way they project out on the road. is there anyway to change the way they cut-off?Is there anyway to change the way my headlight cut-off on my 2005 350z?Not really, besides adjusting the headlights. You could look into upgrading to the 06-07 lights, my friend had a 03 , the 03-05 lights are the same. The 06-07 have a larger projector lens which project the light farther an cleaner.. also gives your headlights a much better look on/off. An there is no company that makes after market lights for the 350/370z, at least not in the US.Is there anyway to change the way my headlight cut-off on my 2005 350z?they are illegal without an automatic levelling device to control the beams you can adjust the beams with screws on the headlights
In general, are Audis difficult to service?
Some German cars are difficult to service. The designs are very complicated. I heard that Audi A4 require that you take off the front bumper skin and grill to change a headlight bulb and some major body parts need to be taken off to change the water pump. Is this true or at least my impression? I heard that 1980's Maserati Biturbos needed radiator removal to change the oil...very stupid design or designed by someone with no regard to costs and labor. How about Audis, particularly the A4? I am looking for a slightly better car, like Volvo S60, Saab 9-3, Acura TSX, Lexus IS250 AWD, etc.In general, are Audis difficult to service?Audi's are complicated and repair costs will reflect that fact. Audi shops also charge a lot in labor, compared with Honda/Acura mechanics for example. Audi's are also known for their electrical gremlins. If you are concerned about repair costs, I would avoid Audi or stay under a warranty.In general, are Audis difficult to service?Expensive to service.In general, are Audis difficult to service?Yes, I've done that headlight job, it's a joke but not a funny joke. They have lifetime tranny fluid, lifetime, are you kidding me? You can't even check the one I dealt with. Yes expensive to maintain.In general, are Audis difficult to service?NO you dont have to remove the whole front end to change a headlight

How to improve the performance of my YAMAHA FZ16 bike?
I have completed an year with this bike and i thought of chipping in some upgrades to the bike.. i really take care of my bike and so it has been doing really great since i bought it.. I have a few options in mind but since i am no expert i thought i should put up this question in general to get a right answer from someone who know well about upgrades.
1. Plan to change the existing spark plug to the Iridium park plugs which are relatively expensive. Have resaerched and found that they improve performance and economy as well.
2. Change the battery to accomodate the Fazer's horn and change the headlight bulb to a brighter one. Which battery and bulb should a go for without hurting the bike??
3. I see that the tyres flatten pretty quick and i have heard of this nitrogen gas thats been pumpe into tubeless tyres of cars which require no refilling for almost an year. Does this really work??
I am looking for precise answers from someone who have dealt with these issue previously.
Thanks in advance,
MohitHow to improve the performance of my YAMAHA FZ16 bike?Iridium spark plugs are good, I use them but don`t expect huge gains.
Changing the battery can be difficult, any more powerful battery will be larger and wont fit. If the horn is too quiet and most modern horns are. It would be easier to get a louder horn. Sorry I cant help with the bulb , ask at your local supplier. As to the tyres if they are going flat quickly you must have a problem with either the rims or valves. If air can escape so will nitrogen. I have only heard of it used in race cars where they use it to keep temperatures down not to prevent leakage.How to improve the performance of my YAMAHA FZ16 bike?try yzf R6.dvd movies case blond hair

05 altima, changing radio?
how hard is it to replace the stock radio out for another one. will the controls on the steering wheel still work for the aftermarket one. and is there a way to get in the gauges and somehow change the orange color lighting its has. oh and fog lights, mine dont have them just a black cover in the hole, can i add just any set i want to and if i change the headlight bulbs to the silverstars do they have to be any certain kind? thats a few ?'s in one. just bought the car. thanks05 altima, changing radio?replacing a radio on a newer car is more difficult than in an older car, but still do-able. u will have to figure out how the radio comes out, usually there are pins that you insert into the dash that unlock the radio and allow it to be pulled out. the steering wheel controls can probably be used with the new radio, u just have to look into what kinds of accessories come with your new radio, some have a system where u can wire it to work with existing accessories, so the steering wheel controls might be still usable. the gauge lights can be changed by taking apart your dash so you can access the bezel that the gauges are in, once you remove this, you can access the lights behind there, and you can find replacement lights anywhere online practically, and change those lights. as for the fog lights, u didnt choose the option to have them installed, but u can order an OEM factory kit of fog lights, or any aftermarket kit online or from a nissan dealership and either have them installed or you can install them yourself, it would just be a matter of removing the covers, usually removable with screws or even just snapped in place. the light kits will come with any necessary mounting accessories and wiring, then you just have to wire them into the electrical system (maybe easier to let a dealership do this), then make sure you have wired them into a switch or button inside so you can turn them on. for headlights, almost any headlights will work, just make sure that the end of the bulb is the right size and shape for the light sockets in your headlights, some cars have different kinds, just be sure to buy ones that are made for that year of altima.05 altima, changing radio?Go to the dealer and buy yourself a shop manual. It will show you how to do all of these things.

How do you change the driver's side headlight on a 1994 Honda Accord?
I removed the headlight's power clip, all I have to do is take out the old bulb and put the new one in. However when I try to twist the old headlight's black handle toward %26quot;open%26quot;, it won't budge. Am I doing it wrong? Should I use a tool to get it to budge? Am I supposed to be twisting something else?How do you change the driver's side headlight on a 1994 Honda Accord?Those twist-in bulb holders can get stuck. Try to avoid using pliers because you could too easily break the plastic. Instead, put on a glove (rubber glove or winter glove or whatever), and twist it harder (being certain to twist in the right direction) than you could with your bare hand.
Try the other headlight's bulb. Does it move enough to give you an idea of how it works?
Sometimes, on many car parts there's a little plastic tab you need to bend in or down or out or up in order to allow the larger piece to slide out or turn. I'm not sure headlight bulbs have this. Yours might, or not.
If it's still not budging, it's probably sticking to the headlight housing. Be careful--it's not worth snapping the plastic within that housing, which is more expensive. Try twisting a little in the opposite direction, and back and forth to get it to loosen up a bit.
I don't know if the manual recommends it, but you could try dripping only two or three drops of a lubricant that does not dissolve or deform plastic. Lithium grease is often used for this. White lithium grease is sold in a can at car parts and hardware stores. If you have a can of it with a sprayer, only spray into the cap a tiny bit, and then use a stick or screw or screwdriver or whatever to drip a couple droplets onto where the bulb is seated in its housing.
You can do it. If worst comes to worst, go to a friendly auto parts store (where you bought the bulb?) when they're not busy, and ask the person at the counter if they'd take a very quick look in the parking lot.
Good luck.How do you change the driver's side headlight on a 1994 Honda Accord?You need to try pushing it in towards the headlight short how you open some bottles where they say push down then turn Good LuckHow do you change the driver's side headlight on a 1994 Honda Accord?if there is a bolt around the base of the bulb? if so you may have to take a hand wrench and loosen it

How do you replace an acura cl digital clock bulb?
I have an 03 Acura CL. The digital clock on the dash usually illuminates the time when I have my headlights turned on. However I believe the light bulb behind the unit has died :( I called Acura service and the cost to replace the bulb plus the labor was a ridiculous amount. Does anyone know how I can change out the bulb myself? Apparently the whole dash has to come off to repair one bulb. Please help!How do you replace an acura cl digital clock bulb?if i was you I would take it to a shop or go without the clock. Lot of stuff in there that could go wrong.
Chevrolet malibu 2002 replacing headlight bulb?
I am going soon to an auto parts store to buy a replacement bulb for my car. However, I am not exactly sure what to get. The car has 3 %26quot;bulbs%26quot; a yellow parking bulb, a white high beams, and a metallic type lamp with kind of a - - - appearance for low beams. This metallic lamp is the one that burnt out. I have not seen this part separately available for sale in online parts stores. Is this a part that on this Malibu can be changed independent of the headlight assembly? How easy is to replace this and how do you remove the headlight assembly on this car?
Anything else I need to know:)?
Thank you very very much. Chevrolet malibu 2002 replacing headlight bulb?Do you have HID (high intensity discharge) headlights?
ok, one is the low beam and one is the high beam.
By metallic your talking about a painted on metallic color at the tip of the light correct?
First- turn on the headlights look at them from outside, or shine them on your garage or fence. Do it first on lowbeam, are any lights out? if not turn on your hibeams and then see if one is out.
One other thing the metallic thing could be is just like a reflector, that centers over the bulb causing the light to reflect back to the silver backing in the housing and shine out again..If thats what it is, you DO NOT need to replace that, just get the bulb, the reflector will stay in.
as far as removing the light, there %26quot;should%26quot; be 2 bolts on the top of the headlight enclosure, remove them, then there may be one other long bolt running down behind the light, loosen that one just enough to remove the headlight enclosure
not sure what stores are in your area, but here is a link. any auto parts store will be able to look up the exact part number you need if you tell them the year/make/model car you have and which (hi or low) beam light you need.
let me know if that helped answer your question?
ps if you got the extra cash, you may as well replace the other side also..especially if its the lowbeam
