HID Ballast Failure
It seems my factory fitted ballast has failed. Checked the lamps, checked the fuses all OK.
Question is, where is the ballast, is it located within the Headlamp unit as I suspect?
I am prepared to do the whole thing, remove the bumper ( fender ) remove the headlamp unit etc... do I then need to take the headlamp apart?
I have a manual as such, but it stops at taking the headlamp unit out.
Any help really appreciated, as the dealer wants £950 to replace the unit.

I think I've answered my own question...
It appears... if it's the same as earlier models, it is located on the bottom of the headlight unit.
Anyone confirm?
