Can't help you but good question.

You could contact RLSebring, post 5 in here, and see if he can help. Also post 6 has a pic of the only style ballast I've seen:

05-06 or 07 I believe had a different style ballast. I came across the same issue in my 05 base.

They changed ballasts over the years. My 05 had a flatter, square ballast that I believe was also used on some Chryslers. When I had to replace one it was difficult because everyone wanted to give me the fat rectangle like yours.
