They are rarer that the piano black steering wheel I got....

I thought one of my ballasts was also on it's way out and I looked everywhere with no luck. In the end, it was a the bulb on it's way out, so I replaced both bulbs and it has been fine since.

Hi alex. Replaced both bulbs about aonth ago as other side was playin up. And then tonight other side just tries for an instant and then niwt. Presume the ballasts are kaput but will try changin bulbs over first to double check?

I know Siamblue has a spare HID headlight with a working ballast, but as far as I know he is keeping it as a spare in case one of his goes. You could drop him a PM and see if he is willing to depart with it
