it flickers like storbe right? our WH (euro WK) did same thing to us. It is 3.0CRD.

You need to use relays on both sides before HID ballasts after stock harness.

You need to trigger relay by it self. Sounds weird right? But it works, you will use trigger wires on relay harness to turn relay on when you turn on lights(it will open relay and will let voltage pass thorugh it because you will connect negative of trigger section on relay to supply voltage to + wire and output will go to ballasts), but when it is off, lower voltage coming from lamp module will not be "long" enough to turn on lights (actually turning on the relay first)

do not forget to adjust head lights little lower compared to halogens.
