1. on the out port pins of the harness, you have to take a flat head screw driver and open up the gap just a bit. it will then snap into a tight fit
2. remove the stock O-rings from the stock bulbs, and use them to replace the new ones (replace the orange ones with the yellow ones) this will allow it the bulb plug to fit perfectly in your headlight arrangement
3. it flickers when you do not have the engine running..
4. to reset the safety thing, unhook your battery for like 10 minutes, and re connect it, it should work, just make sure your engine is running when you try it again.
good luck

If you're using a 35 watt kit, you might have to add a load in parallel on each side, to equal 55 watt loads.

Before trying the above, remove the kit to see if the problem goes away.

u probably are getting interference from your abs module from the high signal output that needs to activate the hid ballast. Might want to relocate your ballast.
