Hid ballast - cheaper alternative

Major-eyeswater · Dec 27, 2019

Hey - does anyone know of a hid ballast for my 2004 s4 that's a reasonable price?
Ebay have some but there appears to be a few different designs.

Just match part for part or superseded part number.

I've not talked the headlight out yet- wanted to buy the new ballast first

Are you having issues? The light units dont take 5 mins to take out.

Yes I am!

I was lead to believe the bumper needs removing first?

No! its only two bolts from the top and one behind the light unit. Whats the fault?

Flashing headlight - I've replaced the hid and it seems to have cured it.
