thanks for the info.. theyre for aftermarket headlights

i had ddm hids in my heads, if u have eds rep headlams with shutter. u need to disable the bulb saver. its made for filiment bulbs and sends a lower voltage to the bulb as to not shock the filiment for a split second then gives full voltage. that reduction messes with the hid ignitors. also if u have eds reps. enable the "xenon equipped with shutter" bit in central electric. that should do it.

post back after u do it and let me know what happens
