thanks for the reply guys but i found out wat was wrong teh bulbs were going bad already since my dumbass had them on 24/7 i was wasting the bulbs in broad day light just to show off lol but i had an xtra set of 8000k bulbs lying around and compared them to the ones that were messing up and found that close to the end of the bulb there is a small circle that fills up wat seems to be white powder and the new ones dnt but now w/those new bulbs theyre back to 8000k blue!!!
