The headlights of the 350Z are a reflector/projector design. This means that the light coming from the lo-beam bulb is reflected onto the road from the chrome in the housing as well as projected through the round lense, this helps to illuminate as much of the road as possible while minimizing glare for oncoming traffic). The hi-beam function of this type of headlight is taken care of with a separate halogen bulb that does not make use the projector.
Halogen Lighting
Halogen bulbs are the most common types of bulbs found in car headlights today. They normally run on 55 watts of power, and produce approximately 1200 lumens of light (1/3 of the light produced by HID).
