Did you check your ballasts and everything to make sure it had a secure connection?

Our cars come with Stock HIDs. Why would change them? All you need is different temp bulbs... What intensity are you running?

The very early models had Halogen lights. Some replace the fog/high bulbs with HID also.

Yeah, you must have a grounding problem or some sort of loose connection in the ballast.

This is your stock headlight with the stock ballast, don't tell me they replaced the stock ballast with a cheap ballast? Check your headlight and see if they still there.
