I wish to upgrade the front headlamps on my 2000 maxima. I've seen a variety of options out there. I know that the 25th anniversary style will bolt right in. I'm not sure if the 2002-03 style will though. Another option that I found on ebay consisted of a projector style lamp, w/ "angel eyes" halos. This last one looks the best, but I'm concerned with electrical compatability. First, I'd like to know if the 2002-2003 Headlamps would bolt/plug right in. Second, I'd like to know if projector style lamp aftermarket lights will require any additional electrical modifications, i.e. wiring and fuse changing. Any knowledgable input would be much appreciated.

The 2k2-2k3 headlights with "angel eyes" look bad ass. A little pricey, but worth it. If you are buying 2k2 headlamps off ebay, watch out for stolen ones (broken brackets). It has been done a lot, so i don't think it requires too many modifications to wiring, but some is needed i'm sure.
try maxima.org forums, they will be sure to help.

Its my understanding that there are gaps around the lights when 2k2-2k3 lights are put on a 2k-2k1
buy the 02-03 HID's... way better then whats out there. No gaps.. I did the conversion.
How much did the conversion cost?
I've got a 2000 SE and I'm looking to do the same thing, because I had some old guy hit the front end of my car. I have a cracked headlight, and I need to replace it. The insurance company bought me a replacement, but it doesn't match the other side. The headlights on my car have an amber tint around the lens, does anyone know if these are the Anniversary headlights, or just aftermarket?

sounds like its just the bulb... they probably put one clear bulb and one amber bulb. Stock 00 headlights are all clear.. the amber tint is from the bulb. Conversion will run you from 600 - 1400. used on ebay run about 600. brand new will cost over a thousand.
I have a '02 with the HIDs, but I was debating on going this route. I'm not sure which one I'd chose of the four options there.
After thoughts:
It says that it is meant for all 2000-2003, but I'm not sure if there is any additional wiring for the 2000 & 2001. If you read it mentions that they recommend different bulbs and/or wiring harness, but it does not say if that applies to all years. I would assume that since the 2002 and 2003 comes with the HID, it would not require or even need additional pieces (except bulb upgrades). Finally, it does not say anything about modification to the mounting brackets, so would this be able to be mounted using the same setup as stock including the theft prevention kit?
The also have the angel eye fog lights and a different set of tailights on that sight if interested, but I'd like to know what people's thoughts are on the headlights.

Any other recommendations for what to do to "personalize" the stock HIDs? I was thinking of upgrading the bulbs in the high-beams, parking lights, and turn signals, but I'm not sure what bulb I would go to and where to get them.

get the halo eye projector angle eyes...they are soo hot i just installed them on my 2000 maxima and they look so much better i love it...it is easy to install basiclly plug and play...have to connect the angle eyes to your parking lights
If you can prove that you got the HIDs legally, there are ways to get that wiring info on www.maxima.org. We don't try and promote purchasing stolen ones hence why they will require the legal paperwork on this
