HID's popping fuses

[skipster04]

My drivers side headlight has been popping fuses about once a week since i installed my hid's... i thought it might be the ballast so i switched them out with the ones from my teggy and still the drivers side pops the fuse every now and again... any ideas?

Maybe the wattage is wrong?

Voltage problems are pretty common on the universal HID kits when used on smart cars.

We just released an HID kit which we designed for the smart 451. Its 249.99 and includes everything and install takes less than 15 minutes.

No voltage spikes, no one light on one light off problems etc...

Sorry to hear about the fuses -- our kit should help and you can off load the other kit to another non smart car chassis.

i found the problem, loose ground, silly me, and id like to support the community but spending 249.99 on hid's, id do without. I'll stick with my 39.99 hids, and support china's capitalist movement. lol

The conversion kit probably comes from China, too.
