i installed my hid kit about 2 weeks ago and noticed it flicking i thought it would go away after they heated up but it got worse. i read on a website that the fuse might not be powerful enough but havent looked at it yet. what are your thoughts or has anyone had this problem before? thanks in advance for the help.

lol, fuse is fine.

you need to get/install a relay kit ($20-30 for a good one). I think I actually have a brand new kit laying around here somewhere.

how do you hook up the relay? where can i get a relay kit?

ya know what i think i have a relay on my lights already so what does the flickering mean

bad connection somewhere? bad ballast?

mostly every aftermarket kit on these trucks will cause some amount of flicker on start up. you need to buy a relay kit. if you search the internet there are a few companies that sell them for under 50 bucks. i have a slight flicker sometimes and i dont run a relay because it doesnt bother me enough to care to spend that much on a minor cosmetic issue.

lol at the fuse comment
