Try Dynamic Sound in Norcross D1S Bulbs $120 bucks

I'm not sure how much the Ballast are but they shouldn't be too expensive.

Were the bulbs cheaper? I'd like to know an alternate spot to get some decent bulbs.

I bought the bulbs from a member on here, NiVeDh, I contacted him and asked him if he had any spare bulbs. He sold me two OEM 4300k bulbs

I think I need a ballast as well. My passenger headlight comes on when it feels like it. It was off the day I drove to Caffeine and Octane and the indicator light came on but the headlight came on for my wife this morning. Then when she got back in the car and cranked it again, it went off again.

BMW Connection never called me back. I left a couple of messages. But it turns out that my bulbs just were some cheap knockoff bulbs. I got some OEM replacements off of Ebay from a reputable seller Bravo Racing. I replaced them(which was not easy at all) and they both work great. No ballast needed.

Yeah, the guy took some time to get back to me. He seems pretty nice though and he knows his stuff. Currently, he is trying to expand so he can service BMW's and Mercedes' and he told me he just gotten the software so he can do coding.
