Default Headlight Ballasts

I need to replace the ballasts on my AP1, but there seems to be no where to buy specifically the ballast. Does anyone know where I could find some?

Well, you can buy kits for around $60, I don't know where you can buy OEM-performance ballasts outside of Honda's expensive units.

Given the age of your light bulbs, you might want to just buy a kit and get fresh bulbs.

I found one site that sells replacement ballasts for AP2s. They seem to be the same as the TSX ballasts and a few other cars. Unfortunately, I haven't run across any for the AP1. I just ordered the 55 watt D2S kit from DDM Tuning and I'll chime back in here when I get it all installed. Should just be plug and play to replace the old hardware.

It seems like most of the ones on eBay are much smaller than the OEM ballasts. I'm worried about fitment and just simply if it will actually work, hah. There are some OEM ones on eBay for about 150$. Might just go for those instead of the much cheaper, shady looking kits.
