Replacement HID bulb
Hey guys,
I searched everywhere on these threads for any info on aftermarket HIDs. I bought my car second hand, and I had a bulb go out and I'm not sure how to find a replacement, or even extract the bulb from the housing. I had aftermarket HIDs on my RSX previously, but these don't look anything like those. I've got pictures (attached) and I'd be happy for any insight, I thought they might be off the stock BRZs or something. |

looks like an AMP connector to me. definitely not stock HID from a BRZ. the bulb and connector are one piece so you don't need to extract it. just unplug the two connections to the ballast and find a new bulb. the markings on there say H8/9/11 so find another H8/H9/H11 AMP bulb.
btw, it also looks like a very cheap HID kit

Thanks ryoma,
I think that I'll look into getting a new kit, it looked pretty cheap to me too! That way I'll know what's in there next time! |

Take a look at The Retrofit Source. Yeah, their kits are a little pricey, but the quality is top notch.

Thanks Kaotic,
I did some shopping around and honestly the top level kits are all about the same price, so I ordered from TRS |
