    Since one side is still working would it just be easier to swap bulbs from one side to the other to see if that worked? Also, will I have to order these online or will an auto parts store/Walmart or whatever have them?

    Idk who carries that brand. It’s possible. Worse case if you have to order some you unplug that ballast and just run normal headlights

    The ballasts should draw its power from the normal headlight plug.

    Just swapped bulbs, so the passenger side bulb is just bad because that worked. So do people usually still have a stock headlight bulb in there too? All I have is the HID one. And what looks like the headlight plugs, have two on the drivers side that aren't plugged into anything and one on the passenger side that is plugged together. Sorry I'm really dumb with it comes to anything electrical relaxed

    The balllast plugs into yhe stock hide light thng(atleast my does. Which makes easy to revert back to a stock bulb. Buy simply plugging into the stock plug and not ballast

    I haven’t eaten anything yet and there’s always food trucks that haunt me during my three hour Chemistry lab.

    Worst part is they always leave 15 minutes before my lab ends.
