Description

RIVALED: A long standing debate in the automotive aftermarket…Morimoto, or Hylux ballasts? Often regarded as the “other” great in the HID lighting industry; Hylux has been building reputable parts for about as long as we can remember – you just couldn’t buy them, until now!

HYLUX BALLASTS: Their powerful igniters are also capable of quick re-strikes without fail. Well designed circuitry and igniter setup results in a relatively fast warm up time for the HID bulbs when powered by a Hylux ballast, but without requiring much power. The 2A88 (35w) ballasts have an integrated error canceler, making them compatible with most European vehicles without any extra gear required to cancel “lamp out” errors.

HID BULBS: Homegrown by Morimoto to out-perform any alternatives on the market when installed in projector-based headlight…and it shows. We admit the latest generation XB HID bulbs are pretty impressive when compared to other bulbs, and even older Morimoto bulbs. At the heart of the XB bulbs is their perfectly-aligned 100% Philips quartz glass capsule that houses high quality halide salts from German-supplier Messer. In our annual lux comparison test, they produced nearly the same luminosity (intensity) as the industry benchmark Osram CBI bulbs at 5500K. No, you’re not seeing things here, but yes you will be seeing everything at night.

WIRING: A wiring harness is not required when using the Hylux 2A88 canbus HID ballasts. These ballasts plug directly into the factory wiring harness making installation a breeze.
