[QUOTE="nawtyboy, post: 357162, member: 8140"] i m no sifu but i have had this flickering issue on my after market HID kit on my e36 before. HID would draw a lot of electricity from the battery on the initially start up to the ballast. If the power load is not sufficient or weak, this flickering issue will occur. i suggest you take this to the wiring man to help diagnos it. The problem could be either the wiring, the ballast or you may need additional relay to boost the current for the ballast. I even had different colour on both headlamps (Toyota Rav4) due to insufficient current to the ballasts. I fitted 4.5K HID on the car but the colour on the driver side is whiter (close to 6K) than the passenger side (4.5K). [/QUOTE]
