I was just wonder about the people who had the HID system in their car. Have you had any problems with them as far as the wire harness holding up. I know that the HID's are rated at 35watts and the stock is 55w but I just want to make sure if any of you had any problems. I just ordered the philips 6000K which I thought was a good deal.

hmm problems? not really any big big problems, but i've had 2 problems

1) sometimes the right side doesn't turn on so i have to turn them off and turn them on again, then it works fine
2) sometimes both don't turn on in the real cold, like now, winter time, in this case, i would have to turn the radio off for them to turn on, then i can turn on the radio


not big problems, but problems nonetheless
