What is different between the 35w and 50w ballast?

How are these holding up for everyone that bought them?

Need to get a new set since my other set crapped out after 1 1/2 years

50w ballast are produce a brighter light than 35w ballast. But so you know, 50w ballast drop the kevlin rating about 1000k.

If you need a quick response, just give us a call, if we don't pick up and you leave a message we usually get back to you within half an hour

Just how the polarity is. If you have a small screw driver, you can de-pin the 2 wires (top and left wire if you are looking at it from the back of the connector) and swap them around, this will make it so your HIDs will be the low beam instead of the high beam. To de-pin the wires, if you look in, you'll see a small part of the connector that is extruding, just push that part in and the wire pulls out

How quick and how much would it cost to get a set of 6000k xB hid headlights to me at zip code 55106?

I had one burn out on me tonight and I really dont want to throw a halogen in there and have to re-wire everything.

Thanks.

If you order before 5pm central time, it goes out the same day. And the price is $130 shipped for a single xenon kit.

The 50w ballast do make everything brighter, but they do drop the kevlin rating about 1000k. So that is hwy your 10,000k looks more like an 8,000k. But right now it is the in-between color, 9,000k :D
