several people have had problems with the harnesses burning out with xenon bulbs. some possible causes are the wattage is too high, a bad ground with an upgrade wire harnesses, or simply just dirty connectors inside the harnesses which results in more resistance.
i have plasmaglow headlights from www.aieonline.com and have had no problems since i replaced my harnesses with new ones from pepboys.

Thanks for the info, someone told me that these type of bulbs will burn the gasket inside the head lamp, and also they will burn the chrome plastic inside, did anyone had problem like that. The thing is i don't want to replace my head lamps for $10 bulb like that.

You sure it wont melt anything inside? If it draws more wattage then it could be that it gets hotter then the normal bulb....
the one i have it is a 80/100w, I have checked the wires they look fine. I look inside the head lamp and it looks like the middle plastic in the center on top of it looks like it has been melted a little bit. the plastic i am talking about is where the bulb goes in and gets hidden behind this plastic it is in the center.
I don't know I might just take them out. and put back a reqular voltage bulbs but a little brighter.
