Default Raptor HID from DDM not working?

Anyone has any problem installing theirs?
I plugged everything in correctly but the light is not emitting?
I unplugged the kit and put my regular bulb on and it worked.

what is my problem?

It worked now! nice and white.
I never had to switch my polarity around before. How weird.

I wonder if i got the Apexecone or the Raptor HID kit
It came with the Apexecone sticker. Apexecone is now Raptor?

5000k looks mighty white...no bluish or purple hint to it. AWESOME!
It helps to avoid the cop's eyes at night. I know they hate colored HIDs.

Thanks for all the supports.
