OE-PART: Best Alternative to the OEM HID Ballasts

The OE-PART LAD5G HID Xenon Ballast Control Module is an aftermarket replacement headlight power unit designed for vehicles equipped with failing factory Valeo 12-pin ballasts. Engineered to supply power to 35W D1S, D1R, D2S, and D2R xenon HID bulbs, this module delivers the standard operating voltage required to restore power to a non-functional headlight assembly. 

When an original HID ballast fails due to thermal degradation, internal component wear, or moisture contamination, the headlight bulb may flicker, experience delayed start-up, or fail to ignite altogether. The OE-PART LAD5G replacement ballast mounts into the factory headlight housing location and connects to the stock 12-pin wiring harness. Operating on a 12V DC input with a rated 35W output, this module offers a practical, budget-friendly alternative available through HID Concept.com for servicing factory-equipped HID headlight systems without paying dealership replacement costs. Sold individually (Pack of 1).

Key Features & Benefits

  • Standardized 35W Power Rating: Designed for 12V DC input voltage and delivers a rated 35W output power for 35W D1 and D2 series HID bulb applications.
  • D1 & D2 Bulb Application: Engineered specifically for 35W D1S, D1R, D2S, and D2R HID bulb configurations utilized in factory projector lighting systems.
  • 12-Pin Plug Integration: Connects directly to existing factory 12-pin harness connectors and mounting locations without custom wiring alterations or ECU coding.

Important Fitment Notice: Designed solely for factory-installed HID Xenon headlight systems with 12-pin connectors. This ballast will not fit or convert models equipped with standard halogen bulbs or aftermarket LED headlights. (Note: Do not confuse this 12-pin LAD5G ballast with the 4-pin LAD5GL ballast used on later vehicle years). Because headlight assemblies can vary by trim and manufacturing date, HID Concept strongly recommends removing and visually verifying the part number and connector pin count on your original ballast before placing an order.

Performance & Visibility Section
A properly functioning HID ballast is necessary to ignite and maintain the electrical arc inside a xenon bulb. Over time, original control modules can lose efficiency due to heat cycling and aging electronics, resulting in unlit headlights or unstable power delivery. The OE-PART LAD5G module delivers standard electrical current to your D1 and D2 series xenon bulbs, helping restore reliable headlight operation for nighttime driving safety.

OEM Quality & Reliability Section
Sourcing replacement headlight control modules through HID Concept.com provides vehicle owners with an affordable solution for repairing non-working headlights. Manufactured to match stock electrical specifications and factory mounting footprints, this control module carries an estimated service life of 2,000 hours.

Service Recommendation: Because opposing headlight components accumulate equal operating hours, HID Concept recommends testing both headlight ballasts and inspecting bulb condition whenever performing lighting system repairs. 

Installation Information
The OE-PART LAD5G ballast features a direct plug-and-play layout designed to match the factory mounting locations and 12-pin plug connectors on compatible vehicles.

To install, ensure the vehicle ignition is OFF and power is disconnected. Access the headlight housing, remove the failed original Valeo ballast, attach the factory 12-pin harness connector to the new OE-PART module, and secure it in place using stock mounting hardware. No wire cutting or vehicle coding is required.

My customers have some older cars, and they don't want to spend the car dealer price for Valeo LAD5G. Luckily, I found HID Concept and they have it for a great price. Hope they don't run out on me in the future.

My brother who's working in Australia asked me to get him a Valeo Valeo LAD5G HID ballast, which I thought was weird, but apparently it's super expensive there than in the States. Actually, HID Concept was much cheaper than the box stores, so got a pair and am flying out to see him next week. I'm just hoping that the customs won't give me trouble with it.

I have an 04 Saab 9-5 aero and by everything Im reading, ( part number, manufacturer, and wattage) this should work for my car. Its not on the list for what it works for. Would this work for my Saab? If it does, Ill by several pairs as parts are hard to find sometimes.

Christopher M.

The Valeo LAD5G is the original (OEM) ballast for the 2004 SAAB 9-5 with HID headlights. While our listing is an aftermarket version, it is schematically identical to your original ballast. If you have any further questions, please contact us at info@hidconcept.com.

Hi!
My question is basically the same as the already mentioned; Do these work with Jaguar X350 with auto levelling headlights?
Your answer seems to be that the ballast has nothing to do with auto levelling, but Ive been told otherwise from an
OEM Valeo dealer in France.
So, what should I believe in? Who tells the truht?

Christopher M.

Truth is hard to come by, but HID ballast controller's function is to regulate the voltage flow fro the alternator power source to the HID bulb. The HID ballast controller does not control any mechanical function of the vehicles, including headlight leveling.There is a seperate module that controls the headlight leveling, and that is what the OEM Valeo dealer is refering to. We,re not sure, but Valeo makes several vehicle parts, and may also make the leveling unit.Anyway, the unit part number for headlight control unit, leveling is C2D36065. For any other questions, please write to info@hidconcept.com

J

Do these work with a 2005 Jaguar XJR with auto leveling headlights?

Christopher M.

HID ballast and Auto leveling are seperate entity, so it does not have any relevance. However, with Jaguar, this ballast is only for up to VIN # G40555 and under (2003~2005)
