Default 2004 oem hid headlights

headlights from my 2004 350z, 100k miles.

water got into the ballasts about 2 months ago. i took everything apart and dried them out. no problems since then. they could use a good cleaning/buffing.

$175 shipped anywhere in continental U.S.

Hey just wondering what kind of condition the lens is in. Any scratches or knicks and have they ever been restored?

The ballast works after getting water in it? I've ruined two that way....

SirSpeedyZ- water got into the gray control unit at the bottom of the lamp. is that the ballast?

Rome64- are you asking about the inner lens?

I got a bit of water in my left ballast before from condensation inside the lens. Took off the ballast...shook it....blew dry it..and let it sit....and it worked a few hours later. Been working fine ever since.

Think I got lucky though Free bump lol...glws!
