Hid headlight flickering
I have the promax hid kit on my car for about 7 months for my low beams and the right low beam started to flicker tonight. I was having this problem with my fogs last week but everything went back to normal. What should I do?? Should I try to send them bac and get a new set??

this happened after 7 months? check wiring? might be a bad ballast. Who'd you buy it from? I'm up to a year and half on my promax kit with no issues.

I had the same thing happen with my Promax kit..started with a slight flicker then they just got progressively worse and started shutting off on me, etc.
I contacted the place where I bought them (same place you got yours) since they have a year warranty. They asked for my order number, which i sent..then never heard back.
I ripped the kit out and replaced it with the DDM kit..so far so good.

I think I'm going to contact them today. My light turned off completly for about 30 mind but I let the car rest and everything went bac to normal while I was at a resturant. Then when i as driving home everything seemed ok until it started to flick then completlty went off again. I'm going to send them a email right now about it.

The DDM kit seems a little more heavy duty to me. I also like the way they designed the rubber stoppers that plug up the holes you drill in the dust caps. It's very snug..much better than the Promax design imo.
