The balast has something to do with the power because it takes more power to get the bulb going but less to keep it going so i am assuming the ballast has something to do with regulating power. I got mine from hidkit.com it comes with two lights two ballasts two metal mounts and two pieces of dubble back adhesive. I just used the adheasive.

ghost... real hids have ballasts. real hid have no filament, as the gas goes through xenon. the "xenon" lights with just bulbs are halogens

Lightbulb

Those are housings for 93-97 sealed beam headlights to convert them to adding just bulbs and/or HIDs. So you need something like that PLUS HIDs & ballasts for 93-97 Camaros...
