You need relays for the HID's, send StreekWK a pm he has them.

if you have relays try turning your headlight switch off and don't use the "A" position. It can cause flickers when opening and closing doors or locking and unlocking truck.

yeah definitley need a relay harness that draws power directly from the battery...the experss harness cannot supply enough voltage to the balst that is why it is flikering like that.
