Default HID Issue solved!!

We'll guy's after taking the car to 2 shops to have the burnt out HID's replaced and getting the same results (drivers side kept going out) I finally got it taken care of by doing it myself! These guy's must have dropped touched or who knows what with the replacement bulbs but after swapping everything from left to right and back I put in a new set of bulbs that only I handled and it's back on. I did buy a new ballast from jag_genius but I don't need it so if anyones looking for one I have it or it's going on ebay. Anyway, thanks to genius and h20boy for all of your input and anyone else that replied to my HID posts.
I CAN SEE AGAIN!!

Question for ya...
Was it easy to replace the bulbs or did you have to drop the front bumper and take the assemblies out? I have a 2000 that I retro'd a set of '07 HID headlight assemblies in but there is no room to change the bulb without doing the whole disassembling and all.

I dropped the bumper cover. It was no problem and only took about half an hour. That made everything very easy to get at. I would'nt even try it without doing that. The first shop that worked on it took about 4 hours to change them without dropping the cover and didn't even get it right.
