Anyone with an '05 had issues with aftermarket HID bulbs?
I specify 2005 because we have "special" ballasts that no other model has...and I've blown 3 (Three) ballasts now in 27 months with my 6000k HID bulbs from one of the vendors.
I just want to make sure nobody else is having this issue before I put them back in. (Swapped everything out when troubleshooting, returned to stock for the last month and really liked the 6000s better)
Thanks, guys!

Check with Gene Culley/GMPartsHouse for confirmation, but I believe the newer ballast can be used in the '05 but the connector is different.
If you are handy you may be able to swap/modify the plug to make the new ballast work.
Are the 6000k D1S lamps rated at the same wattage as the OEM?
