96vteccd5 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 (edited) I was wondering if anyone has expierence this. When I go to my DRL the radio signal is fine but when they come on it goes fuzzy. Anyone figure a way to fix this? I plan on putting HID's in my fogs soon and don't want to make it worse.

96vteccd5 Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Well at least I am not the only one. I may try some shield to wrap the wires and see if that does anything but oh well, it is what is is. I will try a few things out and let you guys know what I find.

12'SROCK Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 if you have quality ballast you will have zero noise problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just become friends with someone who has a towing company, next time someone totals theirs audi from the rear end, get the hid's out of that. Only things is, the polarity's on the ballast are reversed, but you can plug your 9006 outlet in backwards to the ballast, so no cutting up your harness at all, and you also have to retro fit the d2s bulbs into your housing, very simple! hella FTW!

8 UR HMI Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 are u a stock radio? fyi if u arent there is a booster cable that goes into the 40gm-10 harness from the radio that draws more power from the radio through the antenna and saves the power. when u draw more power on the batt from the HIDS, it takes away power from the radio meaning the antenna isnt getting all the power. try that and if it doesnt work then idk good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ces63ss Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 if you have quality ballast you will have zero noise problems thats your problem like 12's said. you can try and shield the ballast and ground it to the chassie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
