HID Help :(

Postby Sap Z » Thu Mar 22, 2007 6:22 pm

So on my way back from work i noticed my right HID just went purple-ish... i've got 5300K.

there was almost no light coming out n it looked purple. WTF happened? is it the bulb or is it the ballast?
I turned it off for 5 mins..tuned it back on and it looked perfect for 2 seconds n then started going purple again n stayed that way.

anyone have any idea whats going on?

i wanna cry :(

i've already switched a bulb out this yr..WTF!!!

i think he means b/c of the brand...:p

i had McCullogh's, too, and they didn't do too well for me either. i think either my bulb or my ballast went out after 'bout a year.

NOT sayin' it's a sh*t brand, it's just that i didn't have any luck with them.
