    Yeah dude but I might have a bad ballast now. Is it normal for them to flicker a bit when warming up?

    No, not normal. You need to have the correct relay and harness to wire them up and work correctly.

    I'm really am sorry for keep doing this but :facepalm:. Nothing against you at all Tyler but there's a reason why these kits are so cheap, they are illegal and also pieces of crap.

    You could have fugged it up when you were hooking em up backwards. Mine are ebay hids and they do not flicker at all. I dont even have the relay harness on them.

    Mine flicker for maybe 5 seconds when I first turn them on, rock solid after that.

    My HID high beams don't work either, sometimes i turn them on and nothing will happen for a minute or so then they come on, but then won't go back off. Most of the time they are off whether I want them to be or not. Sometimes they will stay on for days at a time. Poor oncoming traffic...I often feel bad. They came on the truck and the wiring is too much of a mess to try to figure our what goes where.
