HID Problem and Sidelight

[luggs]

Hi all,

I fitted my HID kit on sunday which i had in my Fiesta ST, same bulbs, H7.

Well they seemed alright until the night time after about 6 hours the right hand bulb went out and the light came on which says ive got a headlight out. im guessing i cud just change the bulbs and see if they work.ett

I also bought some laser blue sidelights so that the original sidelights would not look stupid as they look yellow beside the HID's. but when installed the sidelights still appeared yellow.... y is this?

any help appreciated.

because those sidelights arent very good. Get some led sideliights instead.

you cannot use LED's without adding a load resistor (or by buying the PIAA ones) as the car has a bulb monitoring system and LEDs use less power so it thinks the bulb is off so cuts power

good reply, so where can I get sum sidelights which are White with a tint of blue then? Just so they don't look yellow?

LED are the only way with HID/Xenon lights if you want to go for a white/blue look
