replacement ballast? please help
hey guys i got a used xenon headlight from ebay without the ballast. im trying to find and oem one but havent had any luck. does any one know what ballast will produce an equivalent amount of power to the oem one? it seems that my other oem one uses the HELLA ballast but i cant seem to find the exact one online. will any other aftermarket or aftermarket oem brand produce the exact color as my oem one? thanks for the help guys

Go to the forum section and go to the "want to buy" section.
What you want is a hella gen 3 ballast. A pair usually costs $140-180.
Try not to use aftermarket ballasts as they are not as reliable. Additionally, you have to buy amp to d2s connectors. You can get them on ebay.
The output will be the same though.
