Is the ballast box grounded well? I believe I have heard that these need to be grounded really well, or you will have issues.

Give that a shot. IDK, I have never messed with HIDs. Doesn't make my car go faster and adds weight, so its not up my alley, lol.

if it just flickers and goes out, you could have a bad ballast. could you take a pic of how you got it wired?

so im pretty sure its not the HID's that are the problem. the low beams dont work when i had the HIDs in the projo's, the regular bulbs in the projo's and when i put my old lights back in the driver side low beam doesnt work. I think its because i didnt plug in this one harness but i have no idea what it goes to. its lime green in color, any idea what its for?
