Is It The Ballast Or The Bulb?

[flyt89]

Sorry about all these topics with HID's, im just very indecisive. But i was wondering i have a Vertex 8000k conversion kit for my high beams (9005) in my 2002 ES300. Now i was wondering. I know how everyone told me dont buy korean brands they are not good go with a good trusted brand like Philips. Now say i was to get a name brand bulb like a Philips does it matter that i still have a korean ballast. Cause everyone says Korean brands are unreliable. But if i use the Philips bulbs with my korean ballast should i be fine? Or do i have to lay out the $400 for a whole new Philips conversion kit with Philips bulbs and Philips Ballasts?

choice A just upgrade to these bulbs: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-Philips...sspagenameZWD1V

Choice B upgrade bulbs and ballasts: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PHILIPS-HID...1QQcmdZViewItem

It depends on the connectors you have on your bulbs and ballasts already.

I have this, they are 8000k bulbs, but i want to use 6000k Philips Ultinon bulbs. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...TRK%3AMEWN%3AIT

You have the right ballasts but the connectors are wrnog to use an oem type bulb socket.

Look for connectors on ebay.
