Who is the HID Install Guru???`

Put my new headlights and HID kit in yesterday, was able to wire up the HID's and they look great. The only problem is when I plug everything into the back of the housing, there is a grey wire that is seperated off, that is for powering both of the angel eyes. I attempted to tag into the plug and play adapter for my old angel eyes and corner flashers (which were getting power when i tested it with the voltage meter), for some reason the angel eyes didn't turn on. I tried the other headlight just in case they were shorted or something, and I got the same thing. Like I said, these were getting plenty of power, and just didn't do anything. Anyone have any ideas??
Thanks
Steve

the quickest way would be a PM to him b/c it sends him an email, he usually responds within the hour(if it is the right time of day)

what type of headlights? what color wires are you tapping into? if you have power going into the AE's and they dont fire up you pin configuration is off, this happens most often when replacing zkw's or bosch with depo's, the pin out is totally different.
