All HID kits under $200 should be created equal. They are all the same. Those WILL flicker the same as any unless you install a relay harness. It's the canbus system, not the HID's themselves.
check out HIDextra They give you a relay kit for free if you ask. Pretty sure? That or you can install 20watt resistors instead of using the relay kit.

you get what you pay for. Cheap HID's are bright at 1st. But they die out quickly and are also prone to flickering

Not true. If you have compared bulbs and ballast like I have then you will know most are all made by the same companies and some just happen to get repackaged prettier than others.

However, any bulbs has a recommended replacement factor after so many hours of use.

I don't have any flickering problems, just need to find a good seller.
