Xenon ignitor

[tdatk]

My passenger side xenon headlight went out last night on the 03 e46. I swapped bulbs, and ballasts, the problem is the ignitor.Has anyone sourced them inexpensively?
TIA

I'm already pushing my "what kind,what brand,can I borrow" from Eric, thought some of you guy's may have been there done that, and had a source. I found a guaranteed used/tested one on flea bay (oem_xenon_parts) for 69 bucks, and free shipping.

Be careful with those fleabay parts. I've discovered that there are Chinese clone parts makers with deliberately deceptive names.

I bought a part once where the brand name was listed as "German OEM". Ok, so I'm expecting it to be made by one of the usual suspects. Instead I receive a poor quality reproduction made in China by a Chinese company whose name is "German OEM". :roll:

In another life time the Japanese did much the something. They named a town USA, instead of U.S.A. for the same reason
