Default HID Ballast

I'm chasing a HID Ballast.The one fitted is a GT- HID D2R. Is it possible to buy single ballasts or do you need to purchase a kit. Also are the ballasts matched to the globes or are they interchangable.

I have two spare ballasts. They are working fine. I replaced both of them when i popped a globe - Would need to confirm they have the same connectors to hook up to your existing bulbs though.
