The wiring is not the same for both. If you don't swap it either your high beams will be your low's, or they will not illuminate at all. I can't remember, I'm tired. My neighbor did this in her Maxima.

ok, on DT, theres an ongoing thread right now about this, thats where the one guy said his work w/o rewiring........but, another guy just did this also w/o rewiring and they work right, BUT his highbeam light stayed on, switched back to 9004s and now he has now low beams...checked his fuses and still doesnt know if he fried sumthin........

You will need to swap the wires. It will work backwards, however if you have foglights they will only work with your high beams on. See why you have to swap it?
