Default Xentech HID'S Flickering on Highway.

Now I know this has been talked about but I cannot find anything directly stating how to fix this.

My problem is ONLY on the highway one of my lights flicker randomly goes on and off and its highly annoying I have double checked everything its all nice and tight even tried pulling the wires and it wont flicker I have contacted the seller he stated that the kit is designed to work without a relay or external ground.

My question is has anyone had the issue where it flickers at high speeds only not when starting i have no problems there I even have my lights set to auto. Here is a link to the type they are http://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2053835&page=1 if anyone has any clues please speak up.

If this is in the wrong section feel free to move.

Have you switched the bulbs on the other side?

If it doesn't flicker, then it's the bulb.
If it still flickers, then it's the ballast.

Is is still under warranty?

I have switched the bulbs and the ballast's around and mix matched and its the right side. I have been in contact with the seller andyes it is under warranty they are willing to swap whatever piece I need in advance for me so I am not without.

They actually just called me about a hr ago and told me a couple things to look for mainly the mounting location of the ballast where I had it mounted if I put alot of pressure on it it would hit the body of the car so I moved the mounting location and once it gets dark I will jump on the highway and see..

Hopefully that was it if it was I will be ordering another set for my fogs HID's are a must...
