not that I saw, but I just went off the drop down menus that are there when you look at the sealed 7 housings so I could be wrong.

Id contact them. It says in description that the setup is compatible with the 5five D2S bulbs. I'd contact and get the 5five ballasts and see if they could do the bulbs. The cost is the same. Maybe they can change the order before everything is shipped.

I was under the impression that they do not have a 5Five bulb. I have the 5Five Ballasts. When I ordered my stuff from them a while back there was no option for a 55watt bulb. They simply said the 35watt bulb would work, be brighter than a 55watt bulb, but have about a 30% shorter life. So far they are great.

I was going off what they have listed on their site under compatibility. They do have the 55w bulbs now though. They are the bulbs the OP wanted but were out of stock.

I've used TRS to build the headlights in my ranger and have used both 35 and 55 watt ballasts. Can't really notice a difference other than bulb life. I'm currently working on putting together the sealed 7 set for my jeep. I will still be using the 35s. However I'm gonna use the spare 55 I have to power the driving lights.

Go to the site. Look under housings I think. Click on sealed 7 and choose your options. It's $480 without halos.
