Default post HID install - headlight buzzer?

so i installed my HID's and now i get a warning form the headlight sensor because it thinks one of my lights is out i think this is common with HID installs...anyone have a fix for this? besides just ignoring it?

Default extreme hid from xenondepot.com....

thats the kit....basically its got a wiring harness that hooked up to the two things that go into the back of the stock bulbs...then two other things that plug into the hid bulbs,....then wiring that goes to a positive and negative which ive hooke dup at the battery....it runs off one side of the lights i believe thats why it thins the bulb is dead...but i believe there is a way to make the system think there is a usage of voltage form the bulb like resistors or somehting?

Did you get ballasts/igniters? Is it a plug and play kit?
