TL headlights

Hi guys Noob here

I have been doing some reading on this forum alot of help.
I have a 2003 TL

my right head like is out low/hi
i got them checked out
seems like i need a whole new kit
the lights are out and the ballast


would i be able to get an after market HID kit for this car
new ballasts, wiring harness and bulbs?

with the new kit would i be able to plug in and go?
so i would need D2R for the low beam and 9005 for high beam
planing on getting 6000k


THanks

you may have a water leakage issue into the light housing- common problem and then the water leaks down into the ballast and poof goes the system
Its better- easier- cheaper to get a new ballast and a set of kaixen bulbs- 5000K are close to OE color 6000 are bluer
Any aftermarket system has no where to fit or bolt onto the housings like OE does

If the housings leak- replace them -check the bay, new they are 200 each dealer price
they can be opened and resealed, but its a process involving your oven... and may destroy the housings in the attempt.
