Need help...

Hey guys,

I need to find a pair of OEM (or OEM part) HID D2S (projector) light bulbs for my car. I NEED them to be either OEM or a OEM part number. I'm having some problems with my lights and the f**k'n dealer has told me it's the light bulb. I seriously doubt it is, but they won't take a look at it unless I have the stock bulbs. They actually just charged me $120.00 today just to have a look. They charged me because I have aftermarket lights and those a**holes put that info into the system so I can't get it looked at anywhere else, please let me know if you have those bulbs or know where I can get them for cheap. Thanks in advance.

Do you have the D4S bulbs in the car now with the stock ballast? If so, the dealer might be right. Check this site http://faqlight.carpassion.info/hl-hid-bulbs.htm

What are D3S and D4S type HID bulbs?

D3x and D4x are mercury free versions of the D1x and D2x light sources. They do not work with older D1x/D2x type ballasts because steady on voltage is only 36 V. Compare that to a D1x/D2x style, and u will see that voltage is 85 V. In detail, 42 +/- 9 V can be measured at a D3x/D4x bulb. They have same output, same life as D1x/D2x bulbs
Sorry, I don't have any bulbs for you. Good luck with the dealer.

Thanks for the info. I didn't know about this issue. At least now I can learn what the cause might be.
