Just a heads up guys, be careful if you decide to fit a digital ballast and run led or HID headlight set up.
Cheap ones flooding the market may produce unwanted RF and interfere with ignition units.
I would suggest if you choose to run this set up that you spend a couple of $$$ and use a ferrite coil on the power supply lead to suppress unwanted RF.

You'll see similar small barrel shaped devices fitted on some of your power supply leads around your computer, stereo and home entertainment units to name just a few.
