Replacement ballast for Audi HID Headlights for less than OE

Find a less expensive replacement ballast for Audi HID Headlights

If you have a problem with your Audi HID headlights and you have tested power to the headlight igniter (also called an HID ballast), the problem could be either the bulb or the igniter/ballast. The parts from Audi cost a fortune. But Standard Motor parts now sells a replacement ballast for Audi HID headlights for a fraction of OE price. A ballast puts out very high voltage, so don’t try testing the old unit unless you know exactly what you’re doing.

The R66001 unit for Audi HID lights fits the following vehicles:
