THE C350
flickering could be bad bulbs, ballest, ignitor. so you might want to investigate that if you have not already.

Well i got both of mine installed a few days ago. After 4 days with no errors and no flickering im jumping up and down!!!!

I remember my H7's would flicker like two colors a blue ish white ish color but would be fine after like 20 mins of driving sometimes.

Now they fire up perfectly with no flickering.. I remember i use to get flashed every night driving after 4 nights nothing =D

When i get some more cash i will order a bundle and sell them on here to peeps that need them. I will sell them cheaper then DDM =D If you need a set or two send me a pm =D Ill order some soon

I am going to take my C280 in to get its HID's done again, the first time I was gettng this same problem with the highs and lows.

How many sets of the cancellators do you need? The site above sells them in pairs so I was just wondering if I will need one or two sets.

Thanks.
