HID ballasts do not consume anywhere NEAR the power that a normal halogen bulb uses! The only time that they need the power is upon bulb ignition and that is it. If you put any HID setup into your truck and you pop a fuse then YES you have issues. And the ballasts are sucking alot of amperage to ignite the bulb. That usually happens with, im gonna use the word again, SHITTY jap HID capsules. BUT, if you dont pop a fuse when the ballast hits, when the lights are turned on. Leave the wiring alone.
