Because the flicker happen at the same time on both sides, I don't think I have 2 bad ballast that cause 2 flickers at the same time!!! And always 2 minutes after they are turned on!!!!

Bad relay?

I think you are wrong and right at the same time!!! Wrong, because I didn't use the relay harness. I just plug-n-play. Right, because the OEM harness has relays... and maybe it is the car's circuit that causes this issue. Or maybe the multiplexer. When we turn on the HID, the warm up period sucks a lot of juice... Maybe the harness is able to support this.... Maybe the multiplexer or an other part of the circuit has difficulties.

I think that using the relay harness is a safer way.
