As far as i know, you need a specific balast for a specific bulb. Therefore, you would need to purchase a ballast that is manufactured to produce electricity at a certian consistency for your bulbs. Most HID kits should include the ballast. If you're building HID system from scratch, then you should be careful of which ballast you purchase , if you already have the bulbs. and vice versa.

I have this hid set up in my civic
but the ballast part was put under the head light so it got wet and never turn on my lights, so I tried the light bulb with the other ballast and it worked so thats how I figured it was the ballast... So my question is do I need this exact same ballast or can I use another one that is h4 and also had the same wattage which is 8000k like the one that messed up. Or should I just or a whole new set of hid's?
