Default i asked the same thing a few weeks back.

from what i can tell its only verbage. if you've got ballasts you've got xenon / hid lighting.

here's one from S4MadMan

Default whoa. don't bid.

thoose won't work with factory HID's. thoose are halogen with xenon gas in the bulb. they will likely explode, if they even fit. you need bulbs that look like this..
