this is an HID retrofit work where the projectors from the last generation Infiniti Q45 are custom-installed into the projector housing

for the tailights I don't know but the headlight is a custom job. You (or get soemone else) need to open the headlights and stuff in a different set of projectors. This won't be easy and will require a lot of custom fabrication. You can of course send it to someone else but you will be without headlights for some time.

you have buy the projectors and send them to shop that does headlight retrofits. plus you either have to buy new pair of headlights or send yours to the shop.

you can buy projectors from here
http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...roducts_id=239

and send it to

luxury mods, LightWerkz., HIDILLUSIONZ, LIGHTMODZ, JNC. (get a quote/shipping from them before sending the headlights)

and yes auto leveling still works.

Luxurymods brackets make our retros a whole lot easier. If you are not afraid to open the headlight and you have an idea of what to do its pretty simple once you have all the parts. You just need to purchase a set of projectors, luxurymods brackets, and probably miscellaneous hardware.

Welcome to CL! There is a DIY on here for the retro fit and if you're scared to do it yourself, then like previous members have stated, you can send it off to reputable shops to have them do it for you. I don't know if Moscow have such shops but sending it off will probably cost you a pretty penny. Not to mention the cost of buying the Q45 projectors and shipping them to you. If money isn't the issue, then I'd say go for it since you'll probably be the only one in Moscow to have this retro from what you're saying. If you're going for looks, then I'd say this would be the one for looks. If you want quality and brightness, go for the LS projectors. Good luck and again, welcome.

DIY:
http://www.flawlessfitment.com/search/label/DIY (This link actually shows you how to do it but with the M35/45 projectors instead. It's basically the same steps. It also shows you how to do the Mercedes fogs if you're interested as well and merging the LS rear bumper. Good link if you ask me)
