[pike0825]

hi, i bought a pair of hid low beam ligth for my accord. they were about 50 or 40 bucks. they starter flickering almost immediatley after installation. at first i thought that it was temporary and soon they would stable up. wrong!. its the kind that use ballasts and connect to your stock bulb harness.

The only ballast that I trust that plugs into your harness is the ones from www.retrosolutionsllc.com . They have the night vision ones and tell you the amperage. Its very low and been hooked up that way to my dads car for a long time.

I use relays in my other cars, but when im lazy I just buy their night visions lol.

But flickering can be a power issue. Hook the ballast directly to the battery, see if it still flickers. If not then you need a relay setup.

i cant hook up my ballas dirrectly to the batt. cus its in the trunk. i guess i need some suggestions for a decent solid and stable ballast type of hid kit

Is there a quality difference in the digital vs night vision digital?


Im going to be replacing my HID's soon, and was going to ask around for some input. Whats considered the best on the market these days?

Where would you hook the relay up to? Which side. I no nothing about wiring but I want to learn more. Especially using relays and connecting them up properly. Like for fogs.

it goes in conjunction to the wiring of the body and the ballast

Maybe its time to create a positive post up front. Never know when you may need it.

I mean plug it in directly to the battery and see if it shuts down. Just to determine its not a ballast issue.

i have the same problem in my other car. i think they are just cheap HID's. the brand of mine are xenon. you cant tell its flickering while driving but when you pull up to a house or back of a car its pretty noticeable
