Hi brought 35w Canbus Pro HID kit from HID-Direct, the cost of £100
All I have been getting is problems, since day one as they flicker on start up and sometime do not even come on!
Has Anyone expericence this with their HID KITS on 6R?
As I fed up with this kit and requesting a full refund!

Yup. I tried to fit Canbus LED sidelights and still got bulb warning

You have to use VAGcom to code the car to tell it that there's xenon in the headlights... Otherwise it flickers...
