Disturbed, I just bought those exact headlights! I'm very pleased with the lights and the seller was great! I had a bit of trouble with the first set he sent, but he overnighted parts and went above and beyond to make things right. I wouldn't hesitate buying from him again. While they're used, they are in very good condition. Hope it helps, but if you have any questions let me know as I just went through the process!
I found someone selling used HID lights in pretty good shape for under $200 per headlight with the bulb included. I know I read a post about this but couldn't find it in the search function. Were can I find an aftermarket or stock ballast that will be compatible with the oem hid light at a decent pice?

Before the mods edited the post lightingfirm had prices and shipping information in the post. You can't see who edited it on the phone app, but you can on the computer. It wasn't directed at you

Awesome glad to hear the sale went all for you. I'm having a hard time deciding if I want to drop $1,000 right now though.

That's why I started looking on ebay - buying a complete set was pricey and I didn't have time/energy to learn the ins and outs of HID setups to make sure I could piece together a working system. If one of the ballasts would work from the retrofit source, it looks like it would be approx. another $200. And don't forget that you'll need a relay harness to interact with your stock wiring which I believe is around $100 for our trucks. So it looks like you'd be in for about $700 which is a good price. Whichever way you go, I'm sure you'll be happy with the upgrade - it was a night and day difference compared to the stock halogens!
