Does 2013+ HID (for factory projector) 35W kit come with 50W ballasts?
I just received the kit, and it has:

2 x HID 35W bulbs
2 x 50W ballasts
2 x AMP connectors
2 x canbus adoptors

Are the 50W ballasts correct for the 35W kit?

Also, any do any items get HOT?

The 50w ballasts are usually optional, and with the adaptors nothing gets hot to where you cant put it on plastic if thats what you mean

Thanks.
Good to know there is nothing burns my arm on this kit.

I am not sure if they use or design 50W ballasts for all (35W & 50W) HID kit or OK to use 50W ballasts for 35W kit.
My brain is not trained for electrical work and I have no idea how those thing work.

I hope Jeremy will chime in soon to clear things out for me.

Jeremy just cleared everything for me through email, and OK to run 35W kit with 50W ballasts.
Instead back ordering mine (he was out of 35W ballasts), he shipped with 50W ballasts.

I ordered yesterday morning, and I got the kit today. Super Fast shipment!!!

yeah.......ballasts have been fun for a bit..........I've been selling a ****load! Top that with TRS being out......

I ordered a LOT back in September to stock up....ran out easily and had to order about 2x what I assumed. Then.....when the new XB line came out.....I went nuts, ordered up 600 sets. LOL. I haven't gotten my full order from TRS on that one yet, because they are behind as well. I get some here and there to get my orders out.......but I'm down on 35s......ie, 0 on the shelf. So, 50s for all! LOL
