o man, wow, get an aftermarket HID kit from ebay for about 80 bucks and wire that in. then reseal them headlights up.

i have to do the same thing, because my ballast died in my one unit, so i am custom wiring an after market ballast into the unit, but keeping the igniter from the oem. 80 bucks is a lot cheaper then what the dealer will charge.

Before i bought any thing i would fix the headlight. A igniter/inverter wont fix that. Look in the DIY thread for clearing. It will help you take the headlight and reseal it. Then look at the fix inverter. There may be nothing wrong with it. Also id recommend a new set of HIDs. Contact our vendor Excelerate in the Black Market for HID Bulbs (always replace in pairs)

I noticed my driver side head light looks the same way, but the lights still work. Did not see any where water could get in. Do you guys know where the water is comming from?
