i dont know much about HID's. i know they work similar to flourecent lights. are they cheap-o EBAY lights? could be a bad ballast module. i have no clue how to test them though.

Mine flickered alittle when first installed, and flicker every once in awhile now, give them time for the bulbs to "break in"

mine never flickered but my friends did until the bulbs warmed up. if they continue to do it after a few minutes you should get your ballast swapped

No not cheap ebay lights they came from Xenoneyes cost me 270 they look sweet! But know they both flicker even after they warm up for awhile. I flip flopped the bulbs and also flip flopper the ballastso i dont have a clue. Does anyone think it could be the ground? I already checked the connections. Somebody help please and thanks for the replys.
