Replacing HIDS? Hey guys I bought these from Brian2006 when he had his LED business. Now he is no longer active here. Yesterday one of my bulbs went bad and I need a replacement. Can I still keep the ballast that he has because they are still good. I just need two (gonna replace the other one) new bulbs. Sorry for the shitty cell phone pic
Anyone know where I can get some that match these connectors?

yup you can keep the ballast. just get a new set of bulbs and plug them in.
those connections are all the same on hid bulbs. you can buy any brand really. xentec, etc.
the only thing you will need to know when buying bulbs is two things. 1. what type of bulb is it h1, 9006, etc. 2. what color you want 4300k, 5000k, etc.
also lets say the bulbs you have now are 6000k and you want to replace them with something brighter (4300k,5000k) you can do it with using the same ballast.
