Default 4 bulbs, 2 ballasts Can I splice?

I recently ordered another set of 9006 bulbs thinking I had a bad bulb but it turned out it may have been a loose connection. I now have my HIDs installed and another set of 9006 bulbs taking up space. Can I splice into the power running to my bulbs from my ballasts and install the other HIDs in the High Beams or the fogs? thanks guys!

dont do it, and your bulbs will most likely not turn on, remember your dealin with super high voltage, 25,000 volts. you will surely zap the brown stuff out of you if you start splicing into the wires, just get 2 more ballasts
