Niether of those will help you. If I'm understanding you correctly. If you are waiting on OE ballast to run your OE HID conversion, you may consider picking up a AMP to D2R conversion harness, that way you could use OE style HID lamps/lights, but would not have to fight with finding/connecting OE ballasts, you could just pick up an aftermarket set.

i plugged my HID's directly into the car. i don't have a harness and stuff. but like already stated, it probably regulates the voltage, because my bulbs will blink once in a while.

peace out

Agreed. I'm glad I found Mobile HID when I was looking for a harness

well great news guys. I got the kit working. The problem was that black fuse that plugs into the relay box thing wasn't working anymore. I stuck on another fuse from my friends kit and it works fine. I'm still going to sell my kit because I got an IS300 finally. So I'll post up the kit in the classifieds for about $250 obo.
