I have a 8000k hid kit on my 05 fronty. I want to put some projector lenses o. But i dont know if they will work with my hids, any thoughts?

A lot of members have this set-up. Just beware that most believe that it lowers the light output and you are still going to blind people. I am not sure if it will be less blinding then what it is now but it may be more..

Have you looked into the proper way of putting HIDs into the Frontier's housing. Retrofitting projectors and doing it the right way?

The bulbs are different.
Yours are a hi/low in one, the projectors are separate bulbs for highs and lows.

I already have the hids in just wanted to go to the projectors. I was told that 8000k's are to much and may melt the lens, that they only handle upto 6000k. What do mean retrofitting projectors?

8000k isn't any hotter than 6000k. Whoever told you that is an idiot. 8000k puts less light on the road though, but you probably don't care about that.
If you have HID's in your factory housing, they will not fit in the projector housing. Different types of bulbs.

Well im glad i didnt buy them then cuz they said they use the same bulbs, at least thata what the description said

A true retrofit is where you take a set of HID/Projectors from an OEM vehicle (g35/37 or m45 or etc...) and fit them into your oem housing. This requires baking the headlight to split it. Then cutting it up so the projector unit will fit. Then re-baking to re-assemble. It is the only real way as of right now to have HIDs that don't cause issues for other drivers.

Wow thats alot of work. Honestly im happy with stock housing with the hids. Maybe ill just the housing black. Seems alot easier.
