Nissan D2R ballast with D2S bulbs?
Nissan D2R ballast with D2S bulbs?
Hey guys, I bought a set of Matsu$h!ta/Nissan ballast and it says D2R on the label.
I wired and tested the ballast together with D2S bulbs and it is working fine.
Is there any complication doing this? Might lower the ballast's or bulb's life?
I also found a set of broken G35 HID headlamps and the ballast are the same but it has D2R bulbs( I have 2 pairs now )--- I'm retrofitting this on my foglights.
What do you guys think? Will the ballast be ok with D2S bulbs?

No, the only difference between a d2s and a D2r bulb is the ceramic coating on the bulb. D2Rs are made for reflector based HID setups where as the D2S ones are made for projector based HID setups.
Yes, you are the one who told me that before
Is there any way to prevent that?
I just found that out today.... Well thanks for confirming!

Hey....
How far can I stretch the orange and brown wire (please look pic at first post) ?
I'm installing those ballast for my fogs and I want them to be under the hood not behind the front bumper.
Does it matter if I stretch it or not? Any complications by doing this?
