Default 2008 ISF OEM Headlights with Black Housing
So I opened up my headlights and painted the insides black, but whenever I sealed them I did not do it correctly. A bit of water got in and wet both ballast. You will need to open them up and replace the ballast. You will just need 1 other ballast as I will include an OEM one I bought off ebay. The outside was recently polished by a local guy I've used on a bunch of my car who does a great job. Will also come with 4 working OEM Hid bulbs.

They are not in perfect condition on the back as I kinda didn't know what I was doing, but they look great from the front! One of the top tabs is broken.

You say the'll need to be reopnened....what did you seal them with? Just silicone that can easily be cut? Or did you use a glue which would require heating them up again, which could potentially ruin the black paint job that you did inside the lights?

I used a heat gun to open them up. I resealed them with Nissan OEM rubber butyl headlight sealer.
