Installing aftermarket HIDs on 07 ES350
So I recently got a 9006 8000k HID Kit off of Ebay and I'm planning on installing it in place of the stock HIDs. However, I just realized that the stock HIDs have a D4S ballast and connector which do not fit the 9006 HID kit that I just got.
So should I remove the old D4S ballast and put in the new kit, or buy D4S bulbs that fit the stock ballast? Also, the driver side headlight is flickering and goes out at times so I don't know if the stock ballast is acting up.

Can't answer the other questions, but I can tell you that a flickering headlight that occasionally goes out, but back on again after you cycle the lights off and on, is a symptom of a bulb that's about to fail. Happened to me twice.

Buy the DS4s and be done with it. The flickering bulb is how they normally fail. Use the search here on CL to find instructions to replace the bulb yourself. It isn't hard but the first time can be a bit confusing.
