Question Angel Eye Halo... Strobe Lights???

First Happy New Year to all 7thGenFans... but not too savvy for me... my 2k1 halo's GOT BUSTED 2DAY

Well first it was the poor DIY on the wiring ------bumper off #1

Second, both projector bulb blew up thanks to me ----bumper off #2
TAKE NOTE: Never ever touch the bulb with your bare hands or put any dirt on them, it will pop in like 1-7 days...

Third, my LEFT angel eye doesn't work... I checked and double check connections and fuses, no problem there, nor the look of the bulb on the halo... powers up on all of the lights but the HALO ----bumper off #3

But here's the best part, when I turn my engine on, get this!, my right halo turns into a STROBE LIGHT! ha! looks like a DAMN DISCO STU/PIMP MOBILE TO THE TUNE OF STAYING ALIVE I say!

I swear it's not the wiring coz I had the wiring connected pretty well (this time )... you guys have any idea what's going on with my halos?

Thanks! I will appreciate any help!

On that note... If you ever touch the bulb, You can use rubbing alcohol put it over the oil marks, then let it dry on its own, and it will be fine.Ive touched my HID D2S bulbs (100$ bulbs) so many times :x

Well, If anything I think it would have to do with the resistor... Aftermarket kit halos are known to be very crappy

I would Re-Do the whole halo. PM "Whelan" He has done this. (You can also make it diff colors just remember only white/amber is legal)

Well, It costs alot... But the main reason for people getting "Halo" projectors is just for the halo, Haha... And these things are known to break within a month or two =\

By buying LEDs and resistors and a heatgun, Your projectors halos will last for a LONG TIME
