It does not at all flick. It's solid.

Perfect, let me know if you run into issues my video should be sufficient but just in case. What color temp did you end up with?

One thing to note: The "Coming and leaving home" option in the MMI turns your lights on when you unlock the car also keeps your lights on (for up to 60 secs) when you turn the car off. Unfortunately along with your LED lights the Fogs also stay on. You may want to consider turning this feature off otherwise you'll put extra pressure/use on the fog kit. I've turned it off but then again I live in condo so that feature is pretty pointless for me.

Good luck and let me know.

actually I picked up 2 kits from him. H11 with 6000k for the Q5 and H7 with 8000k for my Mini.. This is the only way he can offer me the same price as he gave you...

That's awesome, 6000K will be bluier than your head-lights, that's the color I am hoping to achieve in the headlight once I get the bulbs... the 8000K will be nice and purple. Enjoy.

I am planning to get a 6000k Osram D3S. This way it will match with the fog.....I am already running 8000k foglight in my mini, the H7 8000k is for the DRL...

That's awesome. 6000K went into your mini right? I am dying to see the 6000K temperature color, that's what's going in the Q next week. BTW, was the ballast you used for the 6K a 55W or 35W?

Thanks.
