Talking Problem with HID's!!! Attn. NATHAN

Hey Nathan I figured this would be better than the email set-up you have because I needed to give pics so you could maybe solve my problem. Here goes I installed your kit no problem.And when I finished both headlights I started to notice a color difference between the two headlights. Driver's side is pink and the passenger side is the blue it is supposed to be. Did I make a mistake or is there something faulty going on that I don't know about? I drove around for about 25 min so I could break them in, but still no difference in color. When they
start cold they both are blue then when they heat up they change colors.Could you please help I need this problem fixed before the weekend!!!

It takes about 50 hours for the bulbs to "color shift" and be the true color. If it hasn't changed in a few weeks shoot me a PM and Ill swap em out for you. Ill even have some 10000K and 12000K in by then I hope if you want a different color.

Doesn't it seem wierd that out of all your kits that have sold I'm the only one that talks about 2 different colors. Do I have to wait that long or can I return the bulbs with new ones. Or could there be something wrong with the ballast? I was hoping for an faster way than waiting 3 weeks. I told you I was impatient!
