Where to get HID ballast locally?

[Doppelgänger]

So i've been having trouble with one of them and the other one took a dump too. Anyway, I need to get some new ballast and would like to get some locally. Anyone?

What style connector is used on the ballast?

Are these eBay ballasts?

I would assume so.

What company makes them and how long have you had them? Depending on whether or not you bought them on eBay, most manufacturers offer a warranty of at least 1-yr.

I don't know. I have the box and it's some Japanese brand... Gech? I couldn't find anything about it. It's got one harness with an oval connector and two wires/connectors coming from the ballasts.

No offense but it sounds like a knock-off brand.

Is it possible for you to provide pics of the harness? Each company uses different connectors for some reason. :wtf:

Not until I get off work.

It does look identical (connector wise) to this.

Ok, let me look around for you and I'll let you know.

I would like to find one or a pair locally :)

I'll let you have the ones off my car since it's not running, they are the same. And you can buy me a set to replace them since you're probably running around with no lights now. They're also just eBay ballasts, not much time on them either.

Well, i found a guy locally who will sell me a brand new pair for $80 w/ 1 year warranty and i can get them tonight. If I hadn't heard back from him just a few minutes ago, i'd be taking you up on that Eric.

Cool. No problem man, just wanted to make sure you had light at night! :)

$80 doesn't seem too bad...

Yeah, would have sucked if you had lost the battle in court over some BS ticket and then gotten pulled over again for headlight issues...
