anybody else got this problem??? happened to me two times, once on each side. the outer most bulb burns out when i ignite the HID. Bulb still works fine occasionally, but needs to be replaced.

Ballast used were DDM 55W and ebay 35W. I used to run HID for a couple of months wihtout problem, but i switched back to halogen. Now i am getting this problem everytime i try.

I already ordered some bulbs from ebay (led with resistors), do u think these will burn out too when i try to install them + hid?

What do you mean DDM 55W and ebay 35W? You're using 2 different ballasts? Stick with the 35W. And no, it's not happened to me but I do get one finicky eyebrow socket, from what I can see while dealing with the electronics of the W204, is that it's pretty much similar to an Audi nightmare, it's got pretty weird electrical gremlins. So you have this problem even when everything is halogen? If so then you've got an electrical problem somewhere, revert everything back to stock and take it to the dealer to be diagnosed.

i tried with two ballast. One is DDM 55W slim ballast and another is some ebay cheapo.

Halogens runs fine. The bulb gets turned off, but it works eventually. Has anybody tried running a relayed harness?

Do you have the error cancellors or built in resistors?
