    Hey Guys,

    I just installed these EUROLINE Xenon H7 7500K Headlight Bulbs into my car headlights and the next day my car battery was dead.
    I then jumped it, drove it and noticed when they turned on my radio died for a second.
    Have a cause a short somewhere or is it the headlights?

    Thanks!

    Is 7500k not bright enough? I was told to buy these headlights...

    What should I be looking for then?

    Euroline are those ebay special fake HID bulbs covered in blue tint. 7500k is colour temperature. Nothing to do with brightness. Get your self some Narva or Phillips +100's.
