HID bulbs compatability

supras4lyfe · 05-05-2016, 06:53 AM

I just bought a 2016 z and swapped out the d2s for a cheap 6000k pair. After having ignition issues and searching the forum, I see the Matsushita Gen V ballast is the issue. However, jwmotoring seem to have a reliable bulb but I can't find his products anymore.

I'm wondering if anyone has come across a brand that works ie Morimoto xb hd? Diode dynamics? Or is stock 4300 only reliable option?

Thanks!

(Last post I found was from 2015 so maybe something has changed since then?)
