hm, thanks for all the replies.

as some of u pointed out, yes i was using aftermarket headlight bulbs and yes it's been almost a year.

i guess i will try putting the oem bulbs back in and see if that solves the problem. then i will go from there

i will keep u guys updated. cheers

You do know that changing to HIDs isn't just a matter of plugging in a different bulb?

I hate to see those things, personally.

And why is that? HIDs are like a small amp for the lights, yes they discharge more light, but it is at a level that is controled, by the ballast. But that is you opinion, not for everybody sure, but to some of us its the best thing to have especialy when you have your ride deck out and pretty looking. I luv em, and when you drive at night it keeps things clear, like debre and such, drive safe is what is all about. Holla at your boy.

I'm sure they're fine to drive behind, but they glare and they're dorky looking.

yeah the deal with aftermarket 'high zoot' bulbs are, they do provide
a higher color temperature, as the expense of filament life
