Default truth about H.I.D.

Has anyone ever had a problem w/ a HID burning out? How does HID work? Is it a normal bulb that goes through a ballaster? Feel stupid asking, but can someone help me out.

That's a great site.

I thought I was nuts about getting the accurate HID info and cut out the BS, but these guys take it to another level.

Looks like the S2000's HIDs are often talked about and measured against. And that all these CATZ/non-OEM HID vendors are worthless just as I had suspected.

normally the bulb will become unusually bright before burning out.
