Hella's + HID

[GuessWho]

It's not wrong, it is aimed at oncoming vehicles.

But what you said is another reason why you shouldn't have them in highbeams.

mate, hids or no hids, full beam dazzles you if your on coming so it would make no odds 

trust me, the reason i state is the reason they dont come in high beam from the factory

That's because you have the dayglo resister that everyone has been talking about lately on the forum.

The HID's need 12v to work, but normal headlight bulbs don't. Therefore the HID's are tricked into thinking the battery is flat as they aren't being provided enough power, hence why they flicker and switch off.

There's three ways around this:
1. Throw your HID kit in the bin
2. Unplug the yellow plug located behind/underneath your airbox
3. Buy a seperate wiring kit off ebay that will cost you an extra £10-£15

I chose option 2

This will not sort the problem out.

We both have one but it still comes on with sides. But it is constant on not 'flickering' like the OP said, this is because the relay switches with the 4v its givin..
