Is the kit one of the pnp ones? If so just trash it. They suck because the factory wiring harness doesnt supply enough juice to keep pnp kits going at intital start-up. You need to direct feed it off the battery if you want it to really work properly.
I had a pnp kit for a while and it was more trouble than it was worth. Get a set of PIAA bulbs and you'll be good to go. Thats what I'm running now and I love them.

pnp=plug and play. The factory integras usually dont put out enough juice to properly function a pnp kit. You usually have to feed the ballasts from the battery.
As far as why it worked on your camry...I dont have an answer for that. I dont work on toyotas.

yeah i have a pnp, but i heard alot of people buying the pnp from ddmtuning and that works fine, how would i hook that up to my battery?
Get a battery terminal that can be taped off of. Run a wire to a switch that can handle 12v. run from the switch to the hid box's power wire.
to the OP, get your kit from DDM tuning, you want a 35watt 9006 kit to match the factory setup, and yes it is plug and play

its possible the wiring is wrong on them, i dont know, i also dont know the bulb number off hand for the turn signal, chances are the light is just out. Its easy to fix, just unscrew the lense and pop it out, the whole thing will just slide right out of the bumper.
yes they do lol what kind of retarded post is this, they put out enough power to power the bulb type in the headlight that they use for high beams and low beams, it sounds like his kit is just junk, or the wrong bulb type kit.

Please forgive my ignorance.
Spawne, if you dont mind me asking, how is driving at night with the ddm 35 watt kit? Did you notice much of a difference over a standard halogen bulb? Does one light ever go out at initial start-up? With standard halogens I couldnt see a damn thing at night, the lights didnt even seem like they were on. That was the original reason I tried an hid kit. It was bright, but it gave me nothing but problems. It wasnt a cheap $20 ebay kit either. Then I took it out and went to PIAA bulbs. They're not bad, but still not as good as the hid was "when" it actually worked.
OP, sorry for the thread jack, but its better than making a new one.

i would try using a relay harness. It would get direct power from the battery and have separate grounds so it eliminates any power/ground issues. Besides they are only like 10 bucks on ebay. My old xentec hids were flickering a bit and it fixed them! but i just switched to DDM ones and no problems at all.

DO NOT REPLACE YOUR HEADLIGHT FUSES WITH HIGHER-RATED FUSES!!!!!
You need an aftermarket headlight harness with relays that connects to your battery, and uses the OEM headlight harness to merely switch the relays, which in turn supplies current from the battery to the HID ballasts. I made my own back in 2003/2004 and have never had a problem.
Spawn I don't know what's up with your beam pattern but you've got some weird stuff happening with your left headlight based on that beam pattern pic.
I can say from experience that plug-n-play kits suck **** in OEM Integra halogen projector headlights. The beam pattern isn't well defined at all, and most of the light ends up on the ground as hot spots within 50 feet of the front of the car (i.e. useless at anything over 20-30 mph).
the lenses are shot, and i dont feel like spending 200 bucks a side to replace them, but its got a decent cut off considering, none of the adjustments work either
the adjustments r my problem in my teg. they dont work so my lights shine on the road like less then 50 feet in front ROFL. i cant see **** at night unless highs r on. i was thinkin of a solution to this, maybe a shim under the lights would work or just hids?
eh, im not gona bother with any of that, the lights are angled properly where they wont bother drivers on the opposite side of the road, and vision isnt all that bad with them, if yours a really bad you really should try to pick up a set of used lenses on ebay or something.
