HID Problems !?!?

So I just got a 2008 Civic Si last Friday. That same night I installed a set of 12K Xenon HID's. Now they worked fine until 20min after having them on. the passenger side bulb went out. i checked my fuse and it was blown. i replaced it again with another 10. it worked until saterday night and it blew it again. only the passenger side bulb not the driver side. so i once again replaced it but put 15 in it. and it blew it right off the bat. so i was F*ck it. put a 20 in. they worked fine and 5min later. both blew out. now I checked the fuses and they are intact. i put a set of stock 10's back in and nothing. lights are GONE. any idea's ? at this point im just curious i went and bought a set of PIAA's Performance bulbs. no HID BS anymore. havent installed them yet so hopfully i didnt f*ck anything up internally. i checked for melted wires or any wire being cut and touching something. but nothing. any idea's ? if you all say xenondepot is good then ill take these 90 dollar regular bulbs back and purchase an HID kit. the thing with my current HID kit. there is not extra ground cable that comes with it. it just plugs the stock plug into the ballist and then from that the HID bulb. help.


sorry to post twice. just not sure if anyone will go and read the other post.
