well, there are quite a few possible problems. The first one is your wiring. Did you have to do any wiring, or did it straight plug into the stock harness? As for the DRLs, you probably blew the fuse. HIDs will do that if you don't have a DRL module for them (at least that's what 3bspec calls it). Another problem with the high beams could be either the bulbs or the ballasts, and they need replaced. but that's hard to tell. I'm guessing you have them in the stock housing right? If so, do you really need the high beams? The lows should be insanely bright as it is.
