I love my HIDS!!!! I have not had any flickering with mine yet except when I smoked a deer and it broke bulb. I have apexcone raptors that are 55Watts and I also got the 5000K bulbs which are the brightest white that you can get. Id got for 6000K or up next time around. And if you do HIDS be prepared to get flashed alot by other

Here is a Link to where I got mine

No it came with all the harnesses, relays, and and ballast for each light as well and it took me about an hour and a half of beer drinking to install them

ditto i love my HID's i woont have a truck that doesn't have them now and their super easy to install they just look confusing with all the wire and stuff but it's like scott said be ready to get flashed and if you want to go big with them order the 43's they are as bright as they come now my buddy has some on his fog lights and regular and with my windows up (i've got 2 layers of 20% tint) they are still pretty bright
