Do i have to change the ballast of my HID kit if i want to change the bulb?

can i simply just change the light bulb on my xenon HID kit to 5000k in place of the 8000k bulb it came with or do i have to change the ballast as well?Do i have to change the ballast of my HID kit if i want to change the bulb?There are basically 2 types of ballasts. The 35W and the 55W system. Assuming you have a car, then you wouldn't worry about 12V or 24V. If you are changing the bulbs, make sure that it uses the same power, ie, 35W or 55W.



All that said, you can simply change the bulbs. Unless of course you would want to upgrade to a 55W kit, then you would need to change the ballasts as well. Check out the HID kit is connected here:
