HID Headlamp question/problem.

[S.E.A.N.]

discolored out put is usually a sign of the bulb dying. It is also a sign of the ballast or voltage being irregular.....which leads to the bulb dying. Obvious at this point however I know... When replacing HID bulbs they must NEVER be touched by your skin. This is the MOST common reason for one bulb dying faster than the other. A voltage irregularity will do the same thing and based on the other electrical problems that seems to go along with your issues, I would guess it is in your wiring or your ballast. G/L

Tomorrow, i will swap the ballasts and see if the problem migrates to the other side. If not then that's honestly good news. I will then swap the bulbs and try that. If the problem migrates then it must be the bulb. Although, i dont see a bad bulb making my lowbeams both flicker when i turn on my highbeams.

Not trying to be a dick, but as stated the higher the number the less light you get. Most people consider anything over 6000k to be ricer since they have less light and are pretty bad when it's wet out.

Considering the car is clean and oem the 10,000k lights kind've give it a look of class rather than rice. If u look at the pic it looks great imo. Now if they were pink or green or some fanboy crap like that i could understand but honestly the light output on them is great, although i havnt seen them perform in the wet, yet. Once the car is lowered as well the lights will only look better as far as night time illumination goes. They cover some good ground jus the way it sits, but im jus worried about this power shortage issue. I need to get a tester and find out whats going on... Anyone live in citrus with a voltage tester? Lol

8K still puts out plenty of quality light but I wouldn't go any higher than that. Of course that is only in cars made to have HID's or retrofit properly. HID's in Non-HID fit headlights may be the biggest ricer move with regards to lighting.....

[S.E.A.N.]

I could only agree with that if the car had halogen headlights and u swapped them for HID such as a civic or a S13 or something, they suit this car quite well imo so im going to have to partly disagree.To each their own, tho. I am no "ricer" lol i know how to tastefully mod the car and i will as such but i am def keeping the HID's

^Your car has the projector set up for HIDs......
