Default HID Lights trouble?

Is it just me or do you guys have to deal about worrying if both of your headlights turn on with your HIDs?

I still have my stock headlights. If you are having issues with them firing, check the connections to make sure they are tight, and make sure the ballasts are mounted tightly to your chassis. If this doesn't help try a relay kit.

Yeah. But It's hard to tell when one doesn't turn on since one can be so bright. I just need to get in the habit I guess then lol

My headlights are fine. It's just I've had previous problems with my fog lights, but I think they're fixed. But I can't tell if they're on cuz I can't see them over my headlights.

That's true, you wouldn't know wether your fog lights were working or not.
Can you get pulled over for a fog light not working as you would If one of your headlights wasnt working?

No. I don't think so. I don't drive with my fogs on any more because theyre brighter than my headlights.
