So i am pretty confused on this one on my 2003 maxima as this is my first junker clunker with a hid setup.
Was under the impression the OEM ballasts generally only lasted 5-7 years yet when trying to find OEM replacements online they all appear to be 20 years old while the ones sold by places like autozone are $400 or more each. yet had quite a few people tell me I don't need OEM but instead just need to splice into the harness of the new ballast to keep the d2r wiring that is hardwired into the lens. Was also told I could switch to d2s if i don't mind blinding oncoming traffic. so i figured I would come ask here what the most cost-effective way to get the job done would be.
