Default HID Kit help.......
I am after a good quality HID kit and have noticed that some have 2 ballasts and some have 4. Is there any real distinct advantage to having 4?? I'd assume yes, but then I do love overkill. LOL.

The 4-ballast kit I am looking at is £110 including postage and looks quite impressive. I want 4300k really as I don't want them to be blue atall. There is a saving of around £25 for the same kit but with 2 ballasts.

it's to do with the dip/dim thing if you've got bulbs with 3 prongs on them

the kit i've got only uses 2 prong headlights and it's brilliant and easy to fit
