Passanger headlamp not working.
I have a 2011 G37 Coupe.
My passenger headlight went out. I swapped the HIDs from one side to the other and it worked fine so its not the bulb. I figured it was the ballast. I called a mechanic that deals with foreign cars, they quoted me $1100 because I cant replace the ballast by itself, they said I need the whole headlamp.
I called the dealer to verify this and they quoted me at $1400 for the headlamp swap, and said the same thing "Cant swap the ballast alone."
Is this accurate?
