    problem with the car.

    So i installed some new HID's on my car last night. It was looking good until this morning. When one of the lights doesn't turn on anymore. I checked the fuse box and it was one of the fuses. Problem is the fuse keeps getting blown. Any ideas as to what i can do? thanks

    you have a short to ground somewhere....prolly when you switched to the new ones...try and check your connection, lokk for a bre wire too, or try a slightly larger fuse, just dont go to high or you'll screw the new ones up for good...there should be a rating for your bulb on the box and just make sure they dont draw more current, if they do use the fuse size they reccommend...
