Hey im having a small problem with my 35w low beam hid. Only left side dim (blink) a little when im driving i changed the ballast and buld. They are brand new and still doing the same thing. And is not because of the sound system because i have a capacitor and it does it with the music off. Problem is only with the left side right side is perfect. Idk its wierd.. haha what could it be???

I purchased the cheap kit off ebay (xantech? xentech?) for my car. initially mine did the same thing. Car on and at Idle and you can see them flicker. Come to think of it I think it was my left side too. Anyway I was going nuts trying to figure it out. I just left it as is and one day they just stopped flickering. The manual to my bulbs did say they required a "break in period". I honestly can't remember if I followed it or not. Could have been my issue, might be similar to yours.
