These lights have been off my car for the past 6-7 months and I will never put them back on. They are 8k bulbs. When I first took them off my car, it was bc one of the lights was shutting off. I noticed a couple burn marks on one of the wires, so I cut the burn marks out and spliced them together. Still had the problem. I then tried both lights on each ballast. And on one ballast, the lights werent working. So Im going to assume that one of the ballasts went bad. The light would work off and on. Maybe there was a loose connection somewhere? Who knows. Worse case scenario, they need 1 new ballast. Heres a pic of them on the car.


Heres a pic of them off the car(both ballasts are still on the car, will take them off once sold)...

 

how much do ballasts run?

 

depends where you look, but I think about $50. I know tonys99ramair had a pair of the exact same ballasts that he was selling $50 for both.

 

im interested, but shouldnt.. ill let you know if i decide.

 

I know what you mean If you decide you want them, just let me know.

 

Are those the ralleylight housings?

 

Is there a writeup on these somewhere with some pics. I have a White TA and am very interested in buying those because of how I think they would look. I have had my headlights off the car multiple times so I am pretty familiar with that area, but I don't know what a ballast even looks like or where it goes.

 

Its cause you don't have any ballast on your car. They are required to run xenon lights. These cars never came with anything fancy like that. They are cheap like the OP said around $50-75. Check Ebay or one of several other sites.

To the OP:

What housings are those? Id be interested but i dont care for 8k, to change out the bulbs and a ballast it would be cheaper to just buy a new kit but that depends on where and how much the housings are. Thanks.

 

I'm mainly interested in the housings as well.. still curious to who's they are.. thanks

 

I have no idea what housings they are. If theres anyway to find out, LMK.

 

Did you get them with a kit or order them separate? Is there two bulbs or one in a single housing?

The hella ones or ralley should have a germany or belgium (euro) sticker on the back. They are actually the factory european version since they have different light standards and are required to be open instead of sealed..

Maybe if you could post up pics of the backs?

How was the cut off on them when you had them in?

 

thats a great deal I use to have them on my TA. I miss them.. great lights.

 

Where'd you get the housings? Can you fill us in on some of the above questions since you're the previous??

 

Heres some pics of the backs.. Also, its just 1 bulb.

These lights were bought from ledguages.com

 

oh ok.. thank you for the info

 

No problem... and they are now sold.
Thanks for all the interest guys.
