Well im not exactly sure. You can always just hook up the ballast to the bulb and give it a test run.

Well if you have one original ballast and one other one when you hook them up you may have different outputs.

Well best of luck with it. Its not to hard to do. Just go out there and unplug your battery. Then take out your factory bulb. Take the bulb out. Plug that wire into the ballast. Then plug the ballast into your new HID bulbs.
