Default Looking for RevExtreme

Good day everyone. I purchase an HID kit for my C5 about 5 years ago and the other day I noticed that one of my lights was out. I have been trying to contact RevExtreme for about a week now with no luck. Does anyone know where I can get a replacement bulb for the setup they sold?


Thank you.

Thank you.
Shouldn't be too hard. Do you have a model # or manufacturer name from any packaging or from the housing? Perhaps a picture and one of the vendors can match up for you. Worst case, buy two new bulbs are replace both to make sure you have the right temp, etc.

Not sure if this is the same Rev Extreme you purchased your kit from, but these guys are local and I think they're still in business.

most of the HID kits i've encountered have been pretty universal with plugs. Do you have a pic of the bulb with the plugs? If they are what I am thinking, you can easily order a new set of bulbs from eBay.

Also what makes you suspect that it is the bulb and not the ballast? Have you swapped the bulb to the other side to see if it is the bulb or ballast?

I have not swapped out the bulbs for tetsing. That is a good point. I didn't realize the balasts could go bad. I will do that this weekend and see what is the problem. And yes MSG C5, that is the company I purchased the setup from. If I remember correctly the bulbs were 6000K. I think I still have the receipt. I will look for it. I keep all documentation for the car.
