Let There Be Light!

It is easy to get jealous of luxury vehicles with High Intensity Discharge headlamps, the lights that produce a slightly blue tinted glow. This new lighting technology, commonly referred to as HIDs, produce more light for a given level of power than standard halogen bulbs. When installed and aimed properly, these lights produce 3 times more visible light than halogen bulbs making inclement weather driving safer. This complete Race Sport Elite HID kit comes with HID bulbs, Ballasts, wiring harnesses and mounting hardware. Replace your old halogen bulbs and receive the convenience and safety of HID bulbs!

inconsistent lighting

I bought these kits recently and had them installed. The bulb went out in 2 days and so i had to send them back in for replacement. The ballasts sometimes dont work. Like if you drove somewhere and shut off the lights, the balasts sometimes needs to be cooled (i think) because it wont turn on right away. Imagine driving during night time. I guess you need to have it running all the time for consistent lighting.
