Looking to buy a ballast for my rx330 with afs, was just wondering if it matters if it is afs or non afs, or are all ballast the same for my car?

 

All the RX330's with HID's had afs.

 

As far as I know AFS is just servo that rotate the and ECU programming, it has nothing to do with the ballast.

If you buy OE ballast they are the regular 55Watt Ballast
If you buy the aftermarket ones, they are mostly 35Watt Ballast unless specified

 

thanks, ordered one off ebay and in the process of replacing now.

 

Can you please let me know if your ebay Ballast worked for you? I am also in the same situation. I ordered one from the ebay. The first time I purchased the Xentec one. But then I found that it is not compatible with the RX330 ballast plugging. So now I purchased the Denso one from eBay. It looks same as RX330 in photo. Waiting for the part to arrive.

Also I was wondering the same if it will work with my headlights since I have AFS. Will ballast control AFS rotation?

Thanks
Dave.

 

thye come stock 55W???? i put 8k into the car and i cannot see shizzz on the road at all O_o"

 

NO I was wrong, stock is 35Watt, 4300K is factory standard, 5000K is really max you go to see anything clear on the road, anything beyond that, you won't be able to see much. I however now have 75Watt hyper ballast retrofit on my headlight and retain AFS on my RX now

 

dang... well imma have my headlights swapped into a 6K... thats the best i can do... id wanna get 55W ballasts jss so i can see better.... but ppl say the stock rx 35W ballasts are the best... =/ sooo i shall see.... did you ever swap out daytime running lamps??

 

Yes complete retrofit done on the headlamp I have 2x 75Watt hyper ballasts for lowbeam ( outside ) and 2 x 65Watt hyper ballasts for inner bixeon projectors also have another 2 x 65 watt hyper ballasts for the fog lights
DRL is a strip of flat LEDs you can see details in link below

oh damnnnn! you did a whole fix up to yours!!! looks hella nice!!! i just got my 6K put in for lowbeam, 6K HID highbeam, and 8K fogs. id love to have yours done to my car!! hahah wanna do mine???

 

With 6K for lowbeam, you can see something but not much and 8K for fog is pretty much a color show, some of the users on the forum uses 3000K which is yellowish like typical fog light color or 5K which is True light color.

Sure, you can email the retrofitter that did this for me and see, mind you his rates are not cheap

 

well the 6k lows and 8k fogs... are a fun match, really cant tell the dfference on them haha. how much am i lookin on retrofit??? im in Cali sooo itd be interesting to see how itd all work out

 

What part of Cali are you io ? I'm at the East Bay Berkeley area, if you are close by, you are welcome to take a look at the headlights in person. As far as cost, it's all up to the retrofitter and you and what you are looking into getting. I believe his basic project cost is at around $2500 because of his vast portfolio and he is known for making your retrofit factory looking.
