SaqTRD Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Hi, I've just noticed that on of my HID Bulbs on the Supra is gone. Any ideas where I can get a replacement that fits? Theres a few on eBay, but not sure if they fit the supra? Thanks Saq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 The person operating the Group Buy on the HIDs would be best person to supply them I'd have thought, if that's who you got the HIDs from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neo2810 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I believe all the HID bulbs and ballasts are interchangeable, but I'm not 100% sure. Test the bulb on your working ballast as it may be the ballast thats gone, not the bulb. They rust internally and die quite easily if the waterproofing is not good.

SaqTRD Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 I brought them from TTints in Luton. But when I emailed them for a replacement bulb, they emailed me saying that since I got the kit 2 years ago, They would need to replace the whole kit as mine is now old? WTF?

WTF? even if you have to replace them, i still recomend knightracer, theres kits are good and cheap aswell. my 6000k set cost £50, still try them first for a replacement bulb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonytotheB Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Changing one might be an issue - they may not match When yo do change them, make sure you don't unscrew the entire circular housing. Its a bitch to get back on. Only unscrew it a bit and then replace the bulb If you know this, then apologies, but it got me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DARETT Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 If TTInts are local just grab a pair of 9005 (x)K bulbs from them, if not any other pair of HID bulbs will be interchangeable with their ballasts. The Supplier for the GB also used to supply TTints as well. Normal price on ebay for a pair of bulbs is around £20 delivered if you don't have any luck anywhere else.
