I think your problem with the brightness is do to your HID's being a 35watt kit and not a 55watt kit.

They are not on my truck, but I have a 55watt 6k kit with the slim ballast on my bike. They have been flawless.











Knock on wood.

What are you guys calling "slim ballasts"? I have had HID on my DD (both low beam and fogs) for over 2 years now without any issues. I'm using the stock wiring and from "cold turn on" to full bright is I'd say about 5 seconds.

edit: I did a google search and found the attached pic. Guess this is what you guys mean by "slim ballast"? I have the "standard" then...

They are actually called digital balasts.

I had 35w 6000Ks in my 01 and they were really really bright. That was regular ballasts.

I have 8000Ks for my four wheeler, with slim ballasts, but I havent installed them yet.

They only draw a lot of power when they first start.
