    Can you please provide a good link for this conversion? I also have a 2007 that originally uses a HiD. The car is called 2007 Prius (Not Touring) Pacific Northwest package 6 basically fully loaded with leather seats, JBL system, Navigation, Alarm and HiD. My car has been getting this issue of headlights on and off for a year now and I cant use it at night. I couldn't replace the original because it requires a ballast and the new bulb that will cost over $500 bucks from the dealer. Is this LED a direct replacement bulb? Anything will help and thanks,
    Edited:
    This is my actual car headlight. It has fog lights too below.

    Just checked this. The lights are chopdark on amazon. They hook directly to the two 12v wires and bipass ballast.

    Yes it fits in the same slot and mounts fine. Inside the assembly wire the two wires connected to/thur the dust cap and disconnect the ballast completely. I removed the ballast completely and put the seal and metal ballast cover on to seal the hole.

    I'll just go with the LED and get rid of my HiD is it will work. So is this the one?
