Default Where did u order your D4s from?

soo i had to return my 6000k hids from DDMtuning because for some reason their bulbs go out every few minutes =\.
so i just put my OEM 4.3k back on.

Does anyone know a good site to order d4s bulbs for my car?

-Thanks

Where do these get installed at? Are these replacements for the running bulb?

if your 2IS came with HIDs, then u just replace place them OEM buld with another D4s. i take off the bumper.. i'm not sure if theres another way to do it.

but if your 2IS didnt come with the HIDs, then u have to buy the ballast & mount it somewhere in there..

I don't know if i have the HID's. I know when my running lights are on they are the normal yellow. So i think i didn't get them.

Easiest way to know if you have HID's is if the Headlamp does an adjusting sequence when you start the car or if you hear a whirring noise coming from the headlamp. Running lights as in during the Daytime Running Lights (DRLs)?? It's supposed to be yellow unless you swap bulbs.
