I have a 2000 gs300 non hid... i put a plug-in-play hid kit and was wandering do they drain the battery quicker then having regular halogen bulb in???? because i bought a brand new battery and about three months later the battery was almost dead. do you think i should put a bigger battery or what????

Assuming everything is wired correctly and working properly, HID's should draw less current than halogen bulbs. They will draw a larger current briefly when initially turned on, but after that they should be less taxing on your electrical system. I doubt a properly installed HID kit would kill your battery.
