100000K. Did they come in that application??

I was under the impression that they only has 4500/ 5000/ 7000 and 9000K.

Who are you ordering it from and where did you find these??

My friend had the same problem. You have to protect any metal from the ballast, which in most cases is the entire ballast from touching metal on the car. For some reason it either grounds itself or something and then turn on as the DRL's would turn on even if you disble the DRL's. Try it and it should solve the problem.

Thanks! I was hoping it wasn't the relay.. those are expensive

I don't know what he used maybe duct tape the bottom where it touches, but I remeber places selling a plastic case that covers the ballast for that reason.

I just rewired mine to the foglight wires, since I have no more foglights.

And I can control the headlights with the foglight switch

NO car company uses 10k on an OEM application. Also, the light shown on the ground w/ a 10k kit is gonna be almost useless since it has so much colour.
