So yesterday I bought the biXenon HID kit from this place in Elk Grove. Got them installed, but after running them for half a minute or so, the passenger side shuts down. So I went back to the shop that sold me the kit, we checked the ballast and checked the bulb and they both worked fine. He said that there might not be enough power going to both ballasts. The way the wiring on the kit goes, there is one pnp connection and it splits to the two ballasts. On the fox, there are two separate connectors from the main wiring harness. Do you think I should try getting another kit? Or do you think the stock alternator is lacking enough power to push both ballasts? I have a brand new alternator in there. So now im trapped cause only the driver side is running.

So everytime I tapped the relay the light would turn on again. I went back and got a new relay, now only the right side turns on and the high beam light is on. [Mad]

Wow that s*#t is more complicated then the ones I got.. ill have to find out the brand but mines are just plug and play one connector for each headlight connector. And I don't think its the Alt. fault. Becouse the balasts only need 12v and the balasts generate the amperege.. how mutch did u pay for them?

I paid more for this one obviously, but thought that it would be a higher quality setup but its the biggest POS hid setup i've ever dealt with.

I did, got some more direct wiring HID's. These ones just plug into the stock wiring harness on each side instead of the bullshit wires to the battery.
