6" Lights Fender Mounted on a Nissan D21 HardBody or Pathfinder

 

Steps to install the lights on the fenders. Need to remove fender.

  1. Unplug turn signals

  2. remove frt bumper, 4 bolts

  3. remove wipers - 14mm nut under the covers

  4. remove cowl vents- bunch of plastic clips (I use black zip ties)

  5. remove cowl, 4 screws

  6. Open hood and remove some clips holding cowl on.

  7. remove clearance lights - 4 screws

  8. remove inner fender liners - i junked these because store dirt and mud under them.

  9. remove fender bolts- some along inner under hood, one bolt under cowl, 2 bolts inside door, one bolt at door sill, 2 bolts under bumper, 1 bolt under marker light.

  10. NOW you can remove fender and antenna. I cut the antenna wire and route a new universal through same hole.

I removed the fender to make it easier to assemble the light. I drilled a 1/2" hole in the center of the fender, also center of cowl. On the passenger side the light wants to be where the square hole for the antenna was. So i made a 2"x3" .120 wall flat stock plate to cover the hole. I used the plate as a big washer. NO welding was needed. I also shortened the stock bolt on these cheap Autozone lights. The wire was ran down the inner fender and through existing holes. I drilled a second hole for the wires in the fender behind the light. 

Finished

Remove fenders, cowl, bumper, marker lights, wipers etc.

I discarded this air box while I had the fender off.

This is the Right side upside down. This is the OEM antenna location.

Installed. New radio antenna location is the big hole.

 

I had to relocate the radio antenna due to clearance issues.

The yellow wire is the ground for the light.

Lights work awesome in this location. I can turn them outwards slightly from inside as needed.

I just installed some lights on My 92 Pathfinder. I found a universal antenna similar to stock style and was able to get it installed behind the light.

 

Here is the switchs I use.
