    So my drivers side light has stopped working, passengers side is good though... I have 3five ballast, so my guess is that the ballast has shit the bed. I've only been running these for a couple months. Has anyone had issues with these ballasts? I really one need one but looks like I'll have to buy 2 new ones. Does retrofit have some sort of warranty?

    You should just have to replace the driver side ballast. If you bought them through TRS they should be able to help you.

    Double check all of your grounds. 90% of the time, problems with HID systems are because of a marginal ground.
    The harness on the TRS kits does not have enough length on the ground wire from the ballast to run to a proper ground. Cut the ring lugs off and solder them to a wire long enough to get back to the body ground next to the battery.
