I have a hid anti-flicker switch on my hids, and they work fine. I had my hids for about four months.

The anti-flicker switch is a series of polarized capacitors that hold power. The hid flicker when the drl are on because of the low power. When you turn your hids on, it stores power in the capacitors. So when you put your car in drive, it doesn't flicker.

I bought mines on ebay. just type anti-flicker switch or hid anti flicker switch.

I actually ended up just installing a set of HID's on my lancer. Plug and play with no anti-flicker or relay harness. There is no flickering issues. The lights turn on normally when they are in the on position and off when they are in the off position?

Where did you buy your HID's from? No issues with the DRL's?
