HID wiring harness

I installed HID's in my car and they fried my factory wires leading to the switch for the lights. Therefore, I see that I need an upgraded wiring harness. Do anyone have any pics of an upgraded wiring harness?

Ive never seen an upgraded wiring harness. Thats going to cost a pretty penny to fix too.

I don't know what to say. My HID's connected just fine and they use less power than the stock lights so I don't understand why it would fry the stock harness.

Hid's use more power to fire up the ballast. then from there they use less power. That's why it's always better to upgrade the harness or install a relay kit. That way your wiring can support more juice flowing thru it.
