Okay, I was trying to install my HID kit last night, but decided to be smart about it and test to see if the lights work BEFORE securing the ballasts and ignitors to the inside of my engine bay. I hook up all the wires the way they should go and get to the part where I connect the preexisting connection to the connection on the HID bulb (where power transfers from the car to the bulb, the lil clip) Theres a red wire and a blackwire. Both have the same connector clip. The instruction say connect the black wire connection to the preexisting connection (which has a red wire). I do this, and now the red wire is just sorta sitting there, flying free.

Needless to say, the lights didn't work. I tried to ground the red clip by holding it in a hole in the metal of the car frame. Still nothin. Then I tried to conect the RED HID wire to the preexisting (red) clip and ground the black. Nothing.

Does anybody know why I'm not getting power to the bulb?!?! Do I need to dround the wire better? Am I supposed to incorporate a fuse somewhere? I am the ultimate dumbass when it comes to electrical installs. H1 bulbs are already a big enough pain in the ass.

Oh BTW, If you are wondering what I did with the old lights, I didnt have the time, energy, or patience to put them back in, so I am running with no headlights at all (other than brights).

So i have to be in by 8:00:frown:
