Is anybody here experienced with aftermarket HID conversion kits? I just recently installed a conversion kit with the bulb 12,000k rating. everything has been working fine (installed on saturday) up until yesterday. i was about to head out and my lights wouldnt turn on. so i finally found out it was the fuses and swapped them. and now today in the morning same thing they didnt turn on, fuses again..
i checked all the wiring and nothing seems to be shorting out...
any suggestions

 

maybe you need to up the ampage on the fuse.

 

do you have it wired into a relay also? if not put one in.. if you do have one check and make sure everythings hooked up right and check to see that the relay is working properly.

 

i put hid kit in my fog lights and the fuses kept blowin....i just put a bigger fuse in and everything has been workin great

 

bigger fues' may work.. but if the kits not made to work with a higher amperage fuse it could lead to frying wires and possibly a fire.

 

Thanks for all the quick responses guys!!!! the current fuse is a 10 amp. maybe ill try a 15amp... thanks again

 

good luck

 

It will not work with 10 amps. My set came with 15 (or 30 ?). Never had a problem.

 

What HID kit is the best while still remaining reasonable in price and who sells it? I have a IX GSR. Thanks.

 

i have the texon 6800k kit in my fogs.. i paid 450 for it like almost 1 1/2 years ago.. no problems with it... i have had other cheap kits and the lights would cut out sometimes

 

Excellent information. Thanks. If anyone else would like to add their recommendations, it would be much appreciated!

 

12,000K rating! I thought that those are only recommended for show car that just want to park there with their lights on at car shows.

Sorry a little off topic.
