    just an update. I changed the fuse holder, and double checked my gounds and stuff. The lights were working fine off a 15a fuse. All of a sudden, im cleaning my wires up with split loom, and fuse blows. So im thinking its a pinched wire somewhere. I guess the halogens never blew the fuse with the same wiring as they didnt draw as much as the hid's. Im going to go back and make new grounds, and solter all the wires, (im just crimping them now, cuz i am installing a new fuse block to clean up all the wires, so i didnt want to have to solter and then re solter everything.

    Thanks for all the help....hopefully this solves everything.

    everything is soldered and a new fuse is in. Works great!!! I was getting worried, that something more serious was wrong (faulty HID's).

    can finally use my hid's :yay:

    Thanks again everyone for the help :cheers:
