[HudsonValleyTitan]

That sux. I can tell you that I've had not one problem with mine so...there IS hope!

 

[titan814]

yea i am just frustrated right now :crying: im gonna take apart the one that does not work and see i i can get it to work..

 

[etalian2005]

what kind of kit did you buy?

 

[titan814]

GB-A HID's... i thought it was a quality kit...

 

[etalian2005]

McCulloch is the best hands down. $305 @ www.ultrabrightlights.com

 

[titan814]

yeah? i dont know if i will buy another set.. it seems a lot of people have an issue with one going out..

 

[Treebasher]

I had an issue with one going out. I would move the wires around and it would work again until I hit the next big bump. I got tired of that and took all the connections apart, added dielectric grease to the plugs, and taped all the connections together so they couldn't move. I also secured the wires so they couldn't bounce around anymore. I haven't had an issue since.

Good luck.

It sounds like you need to find a kit with better connectors.

 

[etalian2005]

Yea guys, you can't buy a cheap kit. I installed mine. Went offroading and shook the **** out of my truck. And they both still lit up.

 

[titan814]

im gonna go take pics of the kit and post them... the connectors are actually pretty nice... brb

 

[titan814]

Unless you spent a couple grand on the kit, you went cheap.

I've got a kit off Ebay for $130 over a year ago, and still haven't had any problems with it. That is with a fair bit of off-roading, a lot of wash board gravel roads etc. Maybe I just lucked out so far?

I bought a set. Almost 2 months old now for me and not one single issue.

I really went top of the line with mine. :teethmast

What's the usual price on the HID's? I spent about $350.00 for my highs and lows and haven't had a problem with them since (knock on wood). I'm looking to get some to replace my fogs, any recommendations?

I good set of HID generally will set you back around $300. Of course you can piece together name brand parts and make yourself a used one a bit cheaper.

I have the $100 China HID lights in my truck. The worked great for about a year, then one started to flicker, and finally that one wouldn't turn on. I bought the"upgraded" harness which wires them directly to the battery about 2 months back, and they've been workin well since. If I run into another problem the halogens will be going back in.
