I recently changed out my hid bulbs from 6k to 10k and a day after having them on I noticed a little burn spot on the back of the headlight housing (chrome area above and behind bulb) I was wondering if anyone has had any problems like this.

I have H13 HiLows in 55w 8k, They make the outside of the lens hot but there is no discoloring. I'd be interested to see what the difference is..........

You have to watch out for what size bulbs you put in because I had to replace three fog lights cause some idiot kept putting the wrong size in.
