Anybody else had problems with HID Lights from LPA

[BuzzVRide777]

I ordered some lights and speaker cans from Jeremiah at LPA a couple months ago. The speakers sound great and the lights were working very well.

...and now the lights are starting to change color. The lights that I ordered were black but are now starting to change to kind of a goldish color. I had put 2 lights on top of the tower and two underneath. The two lights on top started to change more than the ones underneath (maybe something to do with the sun wearing off the coating)...but the ones mounted underneath are starting to turn also.

Also, on the first night that I was using the lights, one of the lights went out on me. Which was not a big deal until I took the lights off the other day to send them back and it looks like the ballast burnt up inside the housing and leaked onto my tower and my tower is slightly discolored right below the mount

Also, the two lights underneath have had some screw fall out...now they are dangling down from the bracket...maybe somebody forgot some Locktite? Has anybody else had issues like this? I have pictures but for some reason can't post them. If anyone would like to see PM me and I can email them.

When I talked to Jeremiah the other day he said this is the first he's heard of this happening. He did let me know that he would take a look at them when I sent them back and that we'd get everything worked out.

No issues whatsoever. But I have polished, not black, so can't really comment on that. Also, I tightened the angle adjustments after install, no locktite though and they are holding fine.

I bought a set from LPA, installed them without issue. Used them on occasion and the one side no longer works. Not sure if the HID light is burnt out already or something else has gone wrong. They are a pain to take off the tower if I need to send it back in. Awkward installation.

I have been running my set for 2 years now without any problems.

Took the lights off and discovered that one of thelights was burnt out. On further inspection the wires inside the case had twisted off. Replaced the wires and still no luck. Any idea where to get a replaceemnt HID light? how much $$$?
