I picked up a used set of xenon lights for my 2011 MCS and the ballasts I just received did not include the gaskets to seal them to the headlight. Does anyone know where I can get this gasket, I'm not having much luck tracking them down.

 

Ah man this isn't promising....can these be bought separately from the lights?

 

Nope, not that i know of an its higher temp gasket also being near that housing, but i dont know what type.

Also if it does not seal and water gets in there it will mess up the ballast and possible to ruin it.

 

Hmm well those look nothing like the ballasts I have, and that's super unfortunate :( .....
I guess if I can't track one down I may have to try to make a gasket.

 

What does your look like?

 

Get in touch with the crew over at The Retrofit Source. They often salvage OEM headlights, and they might be able to help you source a replacement gasket.

 

Part number 1307329153
Everything I found said these were the OEM part numbers.

 

I shot them an email, worked with em in the past. Hopefully they have something.

 

This one?

That's the same design yup.

 

Well I got the actual headlight assemblies today and it looks like the ballasts I was sold as fitting my car are nowhere near close so those will be going back, and just my luck at least one of the projector assemblies inside the headlight broke off one of the mounting points so it's bouncing around inside the light held on only one side....

Maybe this Mini just isn't meant to have projectors lol.
