What bulbs are you using?

TRS recommends only Philips or OSram OEM bulbs. Morimoto are the only aftermarket brand they recommend. The matushita ballasts are known to not work well with other aftermarket bulbs.

TRS carries bulbs as well.

The link you send me redirects me to the matushita ballast... I’m currently using OEM bulbs and the output is terrible. I’m at the retrofit website right between the D2H/D2S morimoto 2stroke or H7 morimoto XD HID bulbs they’re both listed as bulbs for the 350z which should I go with? And last question is... is the matushita ballast really the best choice? There is a setup for morimoto that comes with bulbs and ballast wondering what’s best for the depo headlight housing. Any input would be great. Thank you!

Put some Depos in because my stock lights were in pretty bad shape on my '06 and I have to say, they're the worst lights I've ever seen...hilariously bad. The cutoff is all over the place and the halogens in my 2000 Altima are much brighter. The high beams don't increase the light output at all, just shines light up into the trees. At least they look good in the day time I guess...
