First off thanks to everyone for the advice the wiring on the kit didn't match up to the stock harness, so had to rearrange the pin order and leave the ground out . Not All the kinks are out but they work and all come out. Just have to flash the high beams for the passenger light to come on; I just need a resister. But by leaving the ground out of the harness then I don't get high beams but I dint really care if I have them. I order a set of hid low halogen high to eliminate the relay that might fix everything

I've got 4300k 55w HID's I bought from eBay. They are a pure white no color what so ever and bright as ****! Headlights and fog lights. I've had them on over a year with no problems. They cost me about $100 a set. They're from Japan the supplier is outa SoCal. They came with a lifetime warranty for the harness and ballast but I haven't needed it yet.

My little sister bought a cheap kit from eBay for $35 and she had the same problem. They would shut off when the car was started. I had to get a second relay kit. With both relay kits hooked up they are working fine. I just cut and taped off the joiner.
