> [@Boomin99GT](#): > > Ehhh… From what i’m told non-oem ignitors are garbage. I was told when looking for non oem sytems that the only way to go is to get a system with an ignitor built into the ballast. No personal experience with these but this is what I hear. If you’re buddy is interested howie my cost on the part # you listed is $800 from Toyota. Thats a little better but still a lot of damn money for a headlight part. get a used one, problem solved, there are plenty of wrecked is300’s and other lexi that are in junkyards with their HIDS intact 5 seconds on ebay = [http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?query=lexus+ballast&MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&ebaytag1=ebayreg&srchdesc=n&maxRecordsReturned=300&maxRecordsPerPage=50&SortProperty=MetaEndSort](http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?query=lexus+ballast&MfcISAPICommand=GetResult&ht=1&ebaytag1=ebayreg&srchdesc=n&maxRecordsReturned=300&maxRecordsPerPage=50&SortProperty=MetaEndSort) --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/is300-owners-hid-question/23816)._
