Meh. I figured the bulb got the lead power...guess it's backward. So, just switch the plugs and they should be fine. The ballasts are digital, so they won't work if they don't get the right current.

Please. No purple. Purple is for stupid people that know nothing about lights. 4200-4500k provides the most amount of light. Anything above that starts to get blue and 1. looks stupid and 2. is ineffective in 99% of driving situations. The 5000k's are okay, but they're still a little too white for my taste (but they aren't stupid looking like the blue/purple ones are).
