From what I read, they turn whiter overtime not bluer. I don't know much about HID's but I do remember reading that in a post. :)

I've never heard of them turning yellow.. I've had mine for over 8 months and they are still the whiteish/blue

as they get older they go yellow.
if you have a ballast that is not stable or a sound sytem in your car that draws allot of currant you are not providing enough power to you ballast in turn not enough power to the bulb.
HID ballast need 35 watts and 20 amps to run properly.
HID bulbs should outlast your car as ther is no filliment wire in them like an ordanary light bulb. if u want to discuss this further as i can be typeing this all night call me on the numbers below in my sig
