hey EK1.6CIV
yea it is the gas thats powering the HID ballast,
its all good but to ensure ur HIDS last longer best bet is to turn ur engine on before u turn on the HIDS

cheers man :D
was a mission to hide those ballasts, I had to opt for the bi-xeon, lol
the only problem I have now is not having parker bulbs, no idea where the holder went for them lol

hmm dude u can hide the ballast just where those metal things are infront of ur headlights when u take off ur front bar, all i did was take it off and put the ballast into there, =)
u lost the parker holders ??
LOL
looks like u got jipped when u bought those lights dude
wells nice install, im enjoying my hids too =P

couldnt hide the ballasts there, not enough length, good length to hide them other places tho, just you can see one if you look down near the stock air box, lol
the lights dont come with parker holders from the factory, nor do they come with indcator holders, as when they sell them its a bare assembly...
dont think I'll run parkers anymore, that 20grams of weight could be the difference lol jks jks

Yea its normal, its the actuator that moves the light back and forth from low to hi beam.
