I won't get into why you shouldn't bother with those HID kits in the first place. Generally they draw more current than the stock lights, so should be wired in with a separate harness with it's own relay and power to the lights. Due to the fact that the lights worked for 10 seconds then went out, my hunch is that you melted the stock wiring.
The headlights are fed by a 15A fuse for EACH side, stop lights have their own 10A fuse, and the parking lights (front, side, rear) are all fed from the SAME 10A fuse. So it would be a bad idea to try to wire that crappy hid kit into those wires.

I am using the stock harness for the switch and the relay but after the relay it turns into number 12 wire for each headlight. I have relocated the fuse box underneath the dash and I had the HID kits before. They never gave me any problems. I do not have power at the H ID kit. I guess I will have to check the wires and see if they are burnt. But I would think that the fuse would blow before the wire melts?
