Hi guys,

Does any one know if new morimoto aftermarket frontier headlight could fit 09 pathfinder?
They look sick.

The headlights look the same. I looked up the part numbers on both vehicles and part numbers are different though so there may be a slight variation between the two?

I agree that the headlights look sweet!

They wouldn't fit a 2008-2012 Pathfinder. 2005-2008 Frontier and 2005-2007 Pathfinder headlights are the same. In 2008 through 2012, the nose of the Pathfinder was extended 3-inches, which gave it a steeper rake in the headlights, and grille. In 2009, the Frontier headlamps and grille changed, but they maintained a similar rake to the previous Frontier and 05-07 Pathfinder. Where it changed is the headlamps got a littler longer horizontally, which subsequently made the grille a little narrower. The headlamps of the 09+ Frontier are much better; I know because I own an 06 and 08 Pathfinder, but drive a 2017 Frontier at work. I've actually been considering purchasing a 2009 Frontier grille and headlamps and seeing if I can get them to fit on my 06 Pathy. If that be the case, the Morimoto Frontier lamps with an 09 Frontier grille may possibly fit a 2005-2007 Pathfinder with a little work, but that doesn't help you any, unfortunately.

Your right those look great.

I'll let you know how (if?) they fit and how it went.

I've refreshed the lenses a couple times, but the plastic itself is degraded with little cracks. I'll keep polishing for another year or two but eventually it will be new lenses or HID retrofit.

Hey palmerwmd,
I’m in need of replacement headlights for my 2012 R51silver and these look great — not obviously aftermarket, look slightly blacked out inside which I like a lot.
Did you have any issues with them (fitment, installation, wiring, etc)? And since it’s been a while how are they holding up?
Thanks!

An option are the brand spanking new "C" lights for the Frontier?
They look like a fit for the R51 after the '08 year.

The lenses look the same and they do switchback as well. Too bad mine is an '05. No option for me.
