uhm. you cant just put hids in the bumperlights, they where built for 15-20w
if you want to use them for driwing lights this is the way to go (in my oppinion)

did you use the stock wirings? If so you might be burning out those wires. You have to run new wires with a relay to turn them on. On warm up the ballast will use LOTS of power and will burn out any tiny wires. Run new wires and it should be ok. HID bulbs run cooler then halogen headlights. Since you're running in the turn signal...i don't think it can handle the extra jump from the turn signa bulb to the hid bulb. If you were to put them in the headlights it would be ok. Doing a retrofit would be best.
