    Dang, those ballasts are huge, @zigger215. Are the 35w ballasts that big, too?

    The low beams are tiny...the high beams are normal size but they are "fast brights" and incredibly impressive. The warm up time almost doesn't exist. The pic may be making them look bigger possibly?

    Nah, they're big. I'm accustomed to seeing credit-card sized 35W ballasts that are as thick as an iPhone ... with 55W being only slightly larger.

    No fast brites in 35W?

    Fast brights are only available in 55watt, (all my lights including fogs are 55watt). The fast bright box is a little thicker than the iPhone but doesn't take up as much surface area
