anyone tried changing fog lights with HID??

Hi everyone,

haven't been back on this forum for ages.. just have a little question...

I bought a pair of 6000k H11 HID lights from my friend.. was trying to put it onto my car replacing the foglights at my friend's garage. when we tested them after install, my car's computer automatically switch them off after about 15 secs and gives me a light warning.. the HID are 35W instead of the standard H11 55W.. i wonder if that's the problem...

any advice would be great. Thanks!
