Default Halogen headlight assy replacement for HID H/L assy?>>>

Hello.

I was curious if I can buy a halogen headlight assembly to replace my OEM HID headlight assembly.

Since the halogen assembly is cheaper..and I want a newer lense.

Can i just swap my original ballast/bulb socket to the halogen one?

thanks.

Default The Xenons are a bit more complicated than that...>>

You're probably better off swapping the lens on to your old Xenon assembly..
