I don't remember what type I got..ballast wise...
I know that I bought them from retroshop and they are the morimoto..

Will any bulbs work with any ballast?

Anyone know if any of the newer hid bulbs will work with my low beam ballasts

Any 9012 hid bulb will work. First, I would make sure it’s actually the bulb and not the ballast. Switch the bulbs from passenger to driver side and see if the symptom follows.
