No need to switch fuses, HID's draw less power than halogens.

thats correct you won't need to however a relay harness is always good on teh safe side.

and as a side note:
hids do draw less current except on initial start up they actually draw alot more.
remember its just not just heating up a filament, its sending power to the ballast to send a signal to the ignitor.

its liek a car battery during cold cranks and hot cranks. its easier during the summer cause its not requiring much work cause the battery isnt' cold, but its works harder during the cold days.

You dont need to switch the fuses. I have had a McCulloch HID kit on my Lancer Ralliart for almost two years, no problems.
