Default HID ballast

So I diagnosed the problem to my light being out and the problem has been related to the ballast (not the back ignitor).

I'm not sure if there is another name for this part, which may be the reason why I cannot find it - and I'm asking for your help if you guys know where to look.

(I never seen a car with more electrical problems than Jags..)

Here's the Parts Catalogue page for the HID Headlamp assembly:

Thanks for the help mod,

but in all honesty, I am not looking forward to paying $450/piece for a module - that honestly sounds extremely ridiculous for a part. Any ideas where to find them at a cheaper price?

It is the same part, how long will it last is a different matter. I would purchase it.

I agree, it is refurbished but it beats paying so much for the OEM brand new.

Thanks for your input man.
