[s-cars] Igorlights: radio shut-off solved

[Bob Rossato]

I assume this is only a problem with the '95.5 - '97 cars with the wide radio?

When I installed my Euro A6 HIDs I simply wired the power feed for the ballast directly to the leads for the original low beam bulb.  Everything works like a charm.  No bulb check warnings.  No radio shutting off.  I can flash the lights off and on in rapid succession.  Nothing but pure bright light.
