Ok, so i changed it out and will post pics of both lamps when i get home. I changed it back to stock HID which now makes my fog HID a uneven color.

I'll get the ones from XenonDepot in a few weeks..

Yes warranty does cover it. but since my warranty expired 3 days before... they told me too bad . Oh and warranty starts the day of purchase and does include the 6 or 7 days it took to ship to me in Hawaii.

Xenon Valot's warranty is a mere 3 months. =\

Mine lasted roughly half a year before it started to do the flicker dance.

But they sure looked nice when it worked.

Glad I came across this post, one of my lady's bulb just turned green. And later this evening she called me and said the bulb burnt out! Since the bulbs were bought in april, I'm guessing the warranty doesn't cover it anymore? Was bought from xenonvalot!

Hey man,

Don't feel entirely bad. The first night I got my car (and for several weeks), my OEM HID's literally were green (as seen below in the pix). Since I heard that they get bluer/whiter over time, I kept my HID's on even during the daytime and now they are a much much better color that's bright white with a slight tint of blue (yay no more green). Sorry don't have any updated pictures with what the OEM bulbs look like now.
