I ended up ripping them out. After a couple of weeks one of the ballasts went. When I got the replacement and installed them all in again, the other one started flickering. At that point I couldn't be bothered with the hassle so just took them out. I was using the relays as well as the canbus.
I later went with LED, but they just flickered too. So I am back to halogen bulbs (Silverstar).
Good luck.

Xtreme kit, canbus, phillips bulbs. You can use code 4thcivic to get $50 off plus canbus for free. That code is old so if it does not work you may have to search for a new one.

4 month update:
After many night time driving hours including a trip from TX to NY and back, this kit is still doing extremely well for me. No flickering or failures to turn on. I'm using the philips bulbs without the canbus. I'm actually using two separate relay harnesses though which allowed me to independently wire the bulbs and ballasts from each other. After I got the mess of wires properly managed and hidden, I siliconed the hell out everything.
Final thoughts so far:
Extremely impressed. I had major doubts after I ordered the kit and found this thread. Decided to try them anyway and have had zero issues. Not to mention they're extremely bright.
