As for wiring, the headlights will use 9005 hi beam and H1 lo beam. If you're in a pinch, you can get 9005 headlight harness from the dealer/parts store and wire them in. H1 bulbs use standard spade terminals. If your headlights didn't come with the harness, you can use spade terminals available at parts stores.

Separate the high beam and low beam power wires on your stock headlight harness and wire them to the appropriate bulb. Connect each bulb to ground. It doesn't matter which prong sees power and which prong sees ground on the bulb. As long as they're both hook up to the 2 prongs the bulb will work. Light bulbs don't care which way current flows.

The corner lamp is parking lights. They use small 3 prong Nissan parking light holder available on many mid 90s Nissans and Infinities. Your OEM side marker light bulb holder will fit as well.

The bumper has 3 lights: turn signal/parking combo bumper lights, and side marker lights.

The side marker lights use the same bulb holder as the stock S13 corner lights. You will need another one for the corner lamp so at least you will have to source a set of 2 of the small bulb holders.

The bumper lights use the same bulb holder as the stock S13 combo bumper lights. No sourcing necessary unless you lost your.

The bumper combo light needs no rewiring.

The stock side marker light will need to share its power with the additional bulb holder and harness. Tap the power wire and route to the new bulb, then connect the new bulb to ground.


If you want to do JDM lights stuff or wire them up in a weird way, ask me and I'll tell you how to do it. Otherwise, doing random stuff with wiring will mess up your car so don't try unless you know what you want to do.
