Did you check the fuses?
I assume that they worked just after you put them in.

Re: No lights

Heat is the enemy of electronics so that may be it.

Also make sure you don't have anything wired back asswards and you have a solid ground connection. Also HID bulbs take a little time to warm up so it's possible they just hadn't warmed up.

I mounted my ballasts on the frame UNDER each headlight and used that white thermal conductive gunk made for PC CPU sockets between them and the frame .....
