quick ccfl AE's ballast question

I know there are ballast out there modified to not interfere with the PDC sensors. Where can I buy a pair of these as one of my PDC interfering ones went out already. I would like to find whichever ballast is the best option for the X5 w/PDC and know many of you out there have already gone through this. (hoping your experience will stop me from making the wrong buy on ebay)

Thanks guys!

Mine from bavarian motorwerks doesn't interfere with my PDC. My understanding is those cheaper kits usually come with regular ballast not designed specifically for BMW circuit.(either interferes with PDC or triggers warning light on dashboard)

I suggest you to contact the seller before purchase and confirm the kit will not have problem on BMW espeically the X5 you're installing. This way will guarantee that you're covered if it's not advertised. If they tell you all ballasts are the same across all different makes and models. stay away from them.
