Default HID Fog Light Warm Up

I recently just replaced my fogs with some HID's and noticed that one side usually warms up faster than the other. It doesn't really bother me but was just wondering if others were noticing this with their kits.

Happens to my lows as well. Think it has something to do with the fuse.

Yep that's the solution. Get a relay and wire it so it draws power directly from the battery instead of from the factory wiring.
