    I searched the site for this and came up with nothing. I just put in a set of 35w 8000k hid in my 99 gtp. they are just low beam, and when i run with just my fog lights on it tells my that my high beams are on. I can follow a simple wire diagram so i know i didn't mess anything up with the head lights. What could be the problem.

    nope no problem, thats what happens when you use single beam hids, ive made a thread around here that i mapped out and tested everything and plus there other threads too, just search for any of them or click on my name and you can find it under my profile.

    Like i said its a safety thing, each car is different and each kit is different, you have to deiced for yourself...like with mine i got a 55w vvme kit, the better the company the better the build quality, or at you would think. 70-100 dollar kits vs 30-50 dollar ones off ebay and you take some risk with build quality, and reliability.. But ive never heard of anyone having a problem with no running a harness.
