My hid's flicker

[Mazda Fan]

Anyone else having a problem with this? I can see them flicker when I'm behind someone, but I can't tell if its happening at highway speeds. Did a search a came up with anti flicker capacitors. Has anybody tried them with success?

It's just the stock wiring harness not being able to support the hid's. Have you looked at hid wiring harnesses?

the hid harness is securely attached. I thought maybe it was a powerflow issue. Saw some harnesses that hooked up the hid's directly to the battery, but wasn't sure if it worked for this problem.

Yes the harness that connects directly to the battery takes the stress off the stock harness and prevents flickering. I had the same problem.....
