Icon2 plug and play HID bulb quit working.

i dont know a tremendous amount about hid lighting or lighting in general aside from what ive come across on here. but one of my lights just quit working, and had been flickering intermittently for awhile, maybe the ballast is toast? I'm not to sure as to what my lighting options are for my DB2, so i dunno if i should just get a new kit or put stock bulbs in or what. help?

Put stock bulbs back in or save up for good bulb/ballasts and a retrofit.

ballast is probably at fault for this. make sure your ballast are correctly installed where you wont get water and alot of dirt on them. also you dont want them to move alot as in vibrations.

as sxysweed said, do it right and do a retro if you want hids.. since you said they have been flickering, then the ballast most likely is done..
