DRL needs to be disabled.. It should say that in the instructions. Most DRL systems use lower voltage durning the day, and cause flickering of the headlights day or night.. HID's need a constant voltage to charge up the ballasts.. DRL will try to turn the HID's on as soon as you turn the key, and off when you try to start the vehicle, causing them not to turn on all the time.
