Is my HID kit missing something?







I believe I'm missing a few wires mainly the one(s) that connect to the battery.

I'm pretty sure it should come with a power cord that goes from the ballast to the battery terminal and then a ground wire..

Well i just installed the kit 1 problem, the passenger side doesn't turn on but the driver side does. I have both of them wired the same, the passenger bulb did hit the top of my hand while i was putting it in the housing, i heard skin oil can cause them to burn out. so idk whats up.

I was just about to tell you to flip it, because sometimes the factory power/ground is not the same as the plug you buy.

your factory harness cannot support the load from the ballasts you'll get unwanted burnout in one of your ballasts before long you need an upgraded harness with relay and fused wiring.....
