Default My ballast died...

Michelle,

I read in some earlier posts that there's a one year warranty on all parts from you guys, and I'm in need to cash in on that warranty as my drivers side ballast died on me last night (I verified this by swapping it with the passenger side one).

How do I go about getting a new one? Do I need to email you directly with my order number and info?

Thanks,
Bryce

I ordered the 6000k fog kit and 6000k high bulbs on Friday afternoon. Three hours later I got an email notifying me that they had shipped. I received them yesterday, and installed them today!

What an all around great transaction. Michelle was very helpful and patient with a number of questions I had for her. The kit and bulbs went on pretty easily and work and look perfect.

Next up ... drl's, lows, turn signals and parking.

Thanks Michelle and HIDextra!

^^Yup! I bought the bulbs too and they were greenish. Then the ballast got blamed for the bulbs not being yellow, which is bullsht. I've bought bulbs from cliffud and his were on point! But he doesn't sell them anymore. I'm going to buy bulbs else where. Sorry but to HIDXTRA

^^haha good I'm glad it's still helping people. Well HIDXTRA is replacing ONE bulb so we'll see what happens. If it's still yellow I'm going to throw them in the garbage and get them somewhere else. So if I find some I'll let you know where I got them. I miss cliffud, his stuff was awesome. Fired up yellow in seconds and not greenish REGARDLESS OF THE BALLAST.

^^You are correct. I've had terrible luck with 3000k bulbs in general and eventually the bulbs went bad and I've replaced them with cliffud's bulbs from MobileHID and they worked everytime. Techone is gone now just like most HID companies, they all come and go.
