It could very well possibly that it is your bulbs. I ordered mine from HIDRetroFitSource of their Morimoto D2s 6000Ks and one side was working, but the other side would turn on for a few seconds and flicker off. So I had the other side replaced twice and they did not work. I tried putting the OEM bulbs back on and what do you know, they work. So it was a problem with the bulbs. However, I do not want to imply message to people out there that every aftermarket bulbs or Morimotos do not work or something because it works for a lot of other people, just did not work for me. I ended up getting refund for it. I say try the Philips D2S 6000ks because our OEMs are Philips. They are kinda expensive though, but quality bulbs.

Yeah, try those Morimotos I have no idea why they didn't work on one side of my car, but it didn't work lol. In order for you to get a refund from them, you have to keep trying and getting replacements as they have policy of no refunds. I don't have philips on my car except the OEMs which ARE philips lol. I'm planning to try those out later, not sure when though. Good luck with Morimotos if you order them! Order from their Ebay account and make offer of 30 bucks and they take that. I tried lower, they wouldn't haha. FYI.
