glx-r silver, I have experienced that once with my Supervision HID's. It's almosy like a starter doesn't fire every now and then.
Very happy with them otherwise.

How you finding the kits? Someone said something about them spreading too much on full beam?

The lights are good but you do have a shadow close to the car on high beam but that doesn't bother me when i refit my fog lights.

Who'd you buy off on ebay sliver? I only found a guy selling 'genuine phillips hid kits', read some horror stories about HID kits frying electronics in cars....

Hey there jitsukablue the hid lights i brought are from ebay the site is as below http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Bixenon-HID-Conversion-Kit-Dual-Beams-H-L-H4-8000K_W0QQitemZ380052717645QQihZ025QQcategoryZ33710QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem.
I don't think there should be any problems with the wiring as the factory wiring only to on the ballasts which are powered directing from the battery.

Silver, that link doesn't work for me... Was it from HK or Aus?
The story I read implied that a faulty ballast could send 1000s of volts back through the electrical system... scary if true..

So you guys have converted the factory lights to HDI?
Here I was raving about my after market spots!
Is the conversion easy to install?
