Question.. if Im having trouble with all 4 lights coming on when I start the car, does that mean my ballasts arent getting enough power, or is there a short/ground? Maybe I need to re-check my wiring, or do I need a bigger alternator or something?


btw they look nice and bright. I too got tired of the dismal stock lights.

Is the HID kit that you have the kind that has to be connected to the battery and grounded somewhere? Or did they connect to your factory harness/plug? In what way are you having trouble getting them on?

Looks good though

yea my kit connected up to the stock harness, but i think I had to maybe hook up to a ground nearby though... it was a while back.

When I start the car and flip up the lights.. usually like one headlight and one fog light will come on.. then I have to turn them off and on a few times or once I start driving some they will all eventually come on.

Usually the voltage meter is looking a bit low when they struggle to fully light up. Guessing those ballasts need a ton of power or something.
