Angel eyes dim at times

Hi guys.

I bought some angel eyes from this seller BMW E53 X5 7000K BRIGHT CCFL HALO ANGEL EYES 00 01 02 : eBay Motors (item 160429194414 end time May-29-10 16:47:57 PDT)

some time ago.

At first they where working without problem, but now at times, one or two of the rings are dimmed when first lit..

I installed the wiring harness and now the lights come on when i unlock the car. However, it does'nt look too good when only two of the four rings lit up properly. Sometimes only one of the sides lit up as should..

After i start the car, they slowly turns as bright as they should, also if i turn the lights on and off many times, they will eventualy lit up..

I have tried with several different inverters/ballast's, so im pretty sure those are not causing the problem..

Could it be that they do not get enough power from the wires.? Or could it be that bacuase of a bad inverter in the past, the rings are harder to lit up as should.?

Im thinking about ordering new rings to see if this solves the problem, however, i thougt i'd check on the forum for ideas, before hand...

BTW, i have the harness with the relay, where i have a power source from the interior light, and the main power from the + pole in the engine compartement, and another source from the drl lights on the oem headlights..

Any thoughts would be appreciated...
