Well usually when you turn on your HID's and they shut off a few minutes later it's a bad ballast. As per the humming noise, thats normal for aftermarket HID's.

 

That humming noise is your car screaming in protest, wanting its nice stock bulbs back. JK

In all seriousness, I wouldn't be surprised if the bulbs are defective. Those high kelvin bulbs are mostly made in China with inferior materials compared to the name brand stock color temp ones.

IDK why you would want 8000k bulbs anyway, as they have a lower lumen output and worse color definition that stock. To each their own I guess.

I would just stick the stock ones back in..
