On oem headlight, I believe you have to remove the entire headlamp to gain access to remove the ballast.
You could try just unplug the oem ballast on both ends and run a aftermarket ballast...

Oooo, btw, welcome to CL if nobody said so already.

Thanks Solo.
well i read that aftermarket ballast dont last as long so i want to make sure i can do this and be good for a couple of years. i saw a tread on how to remove the headlight to remove the amber lens on the headlight but i havent read anything about how to remove it so i was hoping there was a do it yourself tread on it. well to unplug wouldnt i have to get to it by removing the headlight also?
