hid screwing up car?

so i swapped my 55w HIDs from my w201 into my w124 and it worked for a bit just had to modify the metal tangs on the HID bulbs.

then things got weird,,, all of the sudden i lost my dash light for nighttime driving, but everything else worked. then i noticed that when i turn the lights on my radio no longer dimmed but the headlights, side markers, and fog lights still work? i visually checked the fuse and it's good, any ideas except to go back regular lights? i really need the HID's for the low light conditions and high deer traffic that is around the area...
