I've unplugged the hid kit completely and it still had no effect on the lights. I even pulled the fuse out, and yet again, nothing.

Could the leds in the tail lamp be an issue as well?
You could try swapping back the tail bulbs, but they shouldn't cause the behavior you are seeing.

Hmm, I tried pulling that relay but it did nothing. It's a grey one correct? Located in the tiny fuse box right under the passenger side headlight? I believe it only controls the dash lights. I tested the tail light socket on the side that's out and there are 3 prongs. The green wire seems to not be providing power but I'm getting a 12v reading from the red and the black one. Does this mean the ground is loose somewhere?

The relay is a large (1" x 1" x 1") located in the small relay box that is mounted to the strut tower on the passenger side. There should not be a relay under the passenger headlight.
