Take a look at the shot glass that will be available at WHIV6. $7.00 each and I will have plenty just in case you would like a set.

THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL CHANGES MADE TO WHiV6 SEE THE FIRST POST ON THE WHiV6 THREAD.

What type of bulb are you looking for? 6k, 8k, 10k...

I get mine from eBay. They are less than $20 for a pair.

Anyway, i bought one from eBay and i never use them, i change my mind and got a 10k instead. I have the 1 pair 8k (white/blue) if you want for $20 pick-up...

1 pair of Xenon 8k (blue/white) low beam. They should be good quality. You should change both bulbs because you may have the OE hid. This one is not brighter than your original, so i'm just saying, you may not want this. If you do, PM me and i will give you directions...

It happened to me on the driver's side. I thought it was the bulb, then i bought a new bulb and we put it in and it did not work, then we know the problem is the ballast. Anyway, i bought the ballast on eBay for $125 and they are new, not used or re manufactured. They are working good so far. It's kinda difficult to take out the ballast, so here's a thread on how to do it...good luck!

P.S.
I had mine done with Ben from Rotary Evolution

let me know if you need assistance in getting it swapped out. it's not too difficult but also not all that easy.
