haha, and I thought I had a problem with lights!!! (ask Newcastle how many I've gone through)
What did you do now? Still having issues with one of them flickering / turning off? (was that the reason for the change?)

yea, i went and bought a new set of ballast, but it turned out to be the bulbs. So I had to buy another set of H1 bulbs (for my projectors).
so if anyone wants to buy my old ballast and a set of H11 bulbs (for stock reflector housings)
let me know.
the bulbs are 8000K

Are you sure the ballast and lamps are compatable? And if they are campatable you may want to try different manufacturer. I have been in the electrical contracting business for over 7 years and have heard of some odd ball stuff.

oh boy here we go..... ![Smilie](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/smile.gif)
yes they are compatable.
the ballast are standard 35w 80 volt nominal with a start up current of 23,000 volts. These are self contained units, meaning that the ignigtors are intergrated into the ballast.
The bubls are H11 35 watt HID bulbs. Rated color temp is 8000k.
any other questions?

yes, everything works now. It was a bad bulb that was causing the problem. The the bulbs i'm selling are from before I installed projectors.

Rasp: I'd love HID fogs but I'm waaaaay to lazy to find a way to make those fit in my OEM housings.
I give those thing 2 days (tops) before they sell in the FS section

幹他媽!
i might be interested in a ski day if it's somewhere local... i went to mt. high on superbowl sunday and it was crowded beyond. the highlight of that trip was there were 2 hot blonde female models skiing in bikinis while a camera crew shooting them. (i didn't have my camera on me, otherwise i'd have some pix.)

They fit into the OEM housing. Just plug and play.

Well, you'd need the bulbs and ballast. I'm looking for 125 for both. Thats half of what I paid for them. I found a bunch of **** in my garage tonight.
