Check you didn't accidentally pinch the wires in-between the bulb and the bulbs seat.

I have a similar prob with my SII SS after changing bulbs the LH headlight fuse goes out and the fog lights (fully) and high beams (dull) turn on by themselves and sometimes stay on even with the key out. so will try some of the suggetions above.

sounds loke you either fitted incorrect globes or have a short somewhere
is that all you did, change headlamp globes?
do you think the brake and idicators worked prior to you changing headlamps
if they did always start at the last thing you did when a situation like this occurs
no need to dis-connect battery to change globes, they should not be powered up
indicator and brakes are on different fuses, which fuse blew or both
the shudder sounds like alternator trying to make up for a huge voltage drop aka short circuit
