It's problably a loose connection, make sure all you wires have a good clean connection.
It happen to mine when I first put them on. Have had any problems with them in over 2 years.

you ahve to rememebr, t/a headlights move, ALOT. if your wires arent routed perfectly, youll cut one or both (dont ask me how i know). check that first. water could be a problem, but ive had mine for a year now with no water problems whatsoever. make sure you have a good ground, and that you didnt fry your stock wire harness. if non of that helps, switch your bulbs/ballasts (whatevers easiet for you) to try and figure out if its a malfunction (happens alot with aftermarket kits)

Nope, no kits. You have to make it yourself. Since the LT1 light area doesn't have room for 2 bulbs, you can either put in a low beam projector and find another location for the high beams, install a bi-xenon projector for both high and low beam or just get a conversion housing and install an HID bulb in it. Your most likely going to have to cut some of the metal out behind the light to get enough depth.

Here are some LT1 links.

Scroll down to the red LT1.
