HID failure?
Woke up Thursday morning and saw that the weather was great so I decided
to drive the C32 to work instead, and on the way home I noticed my HID's
were like this, anyone had this problem and what you guys did? I'm thinking
of possible replacing the low H7 HID kit right?
Thanks

how old is your car? you prob need a new bulb. As the bulbs start to go they loose color. this happened to mine on my ML 55 but u swapped them out for some 6k d2r bulbs.. and it looks great

bulbs?
Also I forgot to mention, as start the car, the passenger side lights up fine,
then about 10-15seconds it becomes that purple haze color instead of blueish
white like the drivers side..
Thanks for the quick response!

yea the 6k Ultinon philps bulbs are great its what i have. The same exact thing happened to me on the right side. Search for Akinaboy on ebay. he will take care of you. BTW look for d2r bulbs im pretty sure they are correct. He has a link in his listings for the right setup for you
akinaboy@hotmail.com
theres his email if you need to get in touch with him directly

heres a link to some of his bulbs these are 4300k which you currently have. these are a limited edition pair. I guess they change to that bluish purple color quicker
Make sure to give hiom my email Riffynypd2@aol.com
